there are your parts. as for the steering use the Search Button

If you want paint ideas, well those will mostly have to come from either your brain or get some ideas (with permission) from the Member Garages

Oh and get some pics...

there is L and R steering adjustments on your remote. Play with those it will help.

also bearings and a new tie rod could help with steering slop too.

www.xmodspr.net for parts

or ebay.

AM and XI are a little expensive for most things.

some questions you running a gen.1, EVO, or street?

1. it doesn't steer evenly:
if gen.1: you have to center the POT its the servo horn and make sure its straight which means taking the front end apart and centering it.

if EVO or Street: XMD put a thread up about this you have to trim the little gray part by the servo.

2. i don't know what i should do to paint it.

take it apart piece by piece, mask off the windows, sand so there is no shine to the paint, very light coats of primer until full coverage, let dry, spray color of choice in very light coats also, let dry, clear coat. you can juse rattle cans, or airbrush. but you can get a real nice paint job on with rattle cans also.

3. i need parts and i need to know where to buy them

there are many places to buy parts are you looking for upgrades or replacement parts? here is two that will usually help you with most of your troubles: http://www.atomicmods.com/ and http://xmodsinternational.com/XMODS%20STORE.htm those will usually be your favorite buddies.

but welcome don't forget to read the rules and guidelines and the search button on the top or in my sig.

hope you didnt spray paint yet but i would take out the headlight and taillight lenses. for the front on the nsx just unscrew them the back cut the little plastic on the inside behind where the lenses are and push them out with a hobby knife.
