The Replacement Parts Thread

Transmission updates:
-LSD: 41200-P80-003 discontinued)

Amayama shows it as available but unsure what happens if you order - https://www.amayama.com/en/part/honda/41200p80003

Thank you for the part numbers! Gives me more ways to spend money...

I would venture to say 90% or greater of integra parts have been discontinued. Very few desirable parts left. Would be far easier to create a list of available parts vs NLA parts

Certainly getting that way. I'm trying to decide on the spares that are available and not done well by the aftermarket. And still being able to pay the mortgage.

@Type R - Welcome to feedback & contributions where we as a community are missing.

@Klasse - Aftermarket closes the gap in certain areas where they are glaring gaps in others, such as distributor parts, rear hubs, etc. I agree with your sentiment.

What non-oem hatch struts are you guys using?

I would shop RockAuto. I haven't purchased DC2 hatch struts but that is where I went for my EG track build.

On replacement parts, anyone have insight into how long things last stored in their bags in the house? Parts like decals, rubber hoses and bushings?

Indoors in a temperature environment will dramatically improve lifespan over outdoors in extreme heat and cold. Perspective, many of these parts were designed to last ~100,000mi outdoors year round.

Yes that's true. Just need some convincing to splash out on more parts

I bought a brand new in the box cowl and noticed the silhouette of cracks around the retaining holes. No actual cracking but the expansion and contraction of the plastic started to discolor it where they usually break. I got it from so-cal so it may have been sitting in a hot warehouse for some time. Some parts will fair better than others. A rule of thumb for rubber is 7 years then it’s kind of questionable but we all know someone with a timing belt older than that. By law companies were supposed to have made replacement parts for vehicles 10 years after the last year of production. Worst case scenario there are parts that were made in 2011 and sitting in a warehouse somewhere.

Yes that's a consideration too. I doubt Honda is still making much in the way of dc2 parts. It's just stored away since years ago.

Ancient plastics has been a challenge for NA1 & NA2 NSX owners.
