    So fuel lines are done. Even was able to use the fuel pulsation damper off of the J30a1. Had the lines custom made and best part was that they were able to use most of the old parts. Total cost was 16 euro. The damper and return line (Fixed to the head cover with metal brackets)...

    Yet again a late and a quick update. Getting there. All coolant hoses done. All vacuum lines done except the dashpot. Took me a while to get my hybrid solution sorted and working. As it was a OBD1 it had a vacuum box. Deleted it and replaced most of the OBD1 solenoid type valves...

    Update: Can now say that the first startup was successful. Only problem is i have no video to post and it was for just 10 sec as the exhaust was mostly missing (loud as hell) and i did not have MTF in the transmission. So as not to damage the transmission the test was short. The test however...

    Well i can make a list and take picture of the custom part after i have finished them all. Funny thing is that did you guys know that a NSX engine is a direct bolt-on to any J and C transmission (C27)....apart from the flywheel that it is dual clutch vs single but the fly wheel is mostly...

    Update: The driveshaft sleeves are being made and should have them by the end of the week. They however will not weld them. As i will first have to test fit to see that it still is the right length and then will get a friend to weld the driveshaft with the sleeves. Been working on the last...

    Small update. The half shaft i ordered arrived and is in customs. Should clear it by tomorrow morning. Also found a stock NSX TB (non drive by wire) with the adapter. Just need to hope it is not gone as the price is OK. Not like the ones on ebay with a price tag of 1000 USD++ If lucky should...

    Thx Red. It has been and still is a headache most of the times.

Also i know that once everything is in place, tested and the...
