Finally was able to finish the 135 today after catching the flu on monday then a fever after 2 days (what a shitty start on my week haha)
sorry for the blurry pic i guess im still recuperating.lol
After doing the the Oil filter housing gasket I went ahead and replaced the oil cooler gasket
First fuck up on the car ripped a vacuum hose luckily i had alot of spare parts (im a hoarder that way.lol)
This time around putting it back is a breeze
First time air bleeding coolant w/ an electrical waterpump
SUCCESS!
Then i realized the last owner didn't put oil on the air filter so i went ahead and did that
started de-chroming the car
While waiting for the filter to dry i looked up the spark plug interval and its suppose to be at 47k miles so i said what the hell close enough.
I caught break on this one dealer wanted 25 a pop per spark plugs luckily lordco carry the OEM plugs and i got a sweet discount on it
And of course it needs a special spark plug socket tool
Ideally you would wanna do compression test before you buy the car to see if the motor is healthy but it didnt allow me at that time of the sale and i took a gamble!
and the results are....
A consistent 170 psi! now i can say it was a good buy .lol
I was very nervous when i was doing the test because of my experience with the nsx. Out of 4 nsx(S) that i saw 3 of them had a bad compression test
Usually after doing and finishing the job i hate putting it back together but today was an exception i was still riding high on the good compression result .haha
With maintenance out of the way time to mod!!
