Acura Just Brought Back 3,000+ Parts for the First-Gen NSX — and the Catalog Will Grow

Acura's Nov. 2 announcement: more than 3,000 reproduction parts for the 1991-2005 NSX are now on sale in the U.S. at Acura dealers and Honda DreamShop — Genuine Reproduction and Compatible parts — as the first model in the Honda Heritage Parts program, with more models promised.

Acura has begun U.S. sales of more than 3,000 reproduction parts for the first-generation NSX (1991–2005), sold exclusively through Acura dealers and Honda's DreamShop online store. Announced November 2, it is the American launch of the Honda Heritage Parts program — and the NSX is the first model covered, with the catalog promised to expand to additional models in the future.

Two Kinds of Parts, One Goal

The program splits its catalog in two. Genuine Honda Reproduction Parts are made using the same materials and production methods as the original parts. Honda Compatible Parts are newly developed parts that may not look identical to the originals but are designed to function in exactly the same way — Acura's own example is an ABS module, the kind of electronic component where original production methods no longer make sense but function is everything. That distinction is the honest core of the program: where the original way still works, they use it; where it doesn't, they engineer an equivalent instead of letting the part go extinct.

Why This Matters More Than One Model

Every owner of a 1990s Japanese performance car knows the moment: a part goes discontinued, the used market prices it like jewelry, and the car starts becoming a museum piece against its owner's will. A factory heritage program reverses that. Per Japanese Nostalgic Car, Honda launched the program in Japan in April 2026 under Honda Heritage Works, which also offers factory-approved restoration services there — the restoration side has not come to the U.S., at least not yet. What has arrived is the parts catalog, and Acura chose to start where it hurts most: an iconic, low-volume flagship whose newest example is now old enough to rent a car.

The Quote That Frames It

"Honda Heritage Parts was created to help our customers enjoy their classic Acura and Honda performance models, and it's appropriate that we begin with an iconic model like the first-generation Acura NSX," said Mamadou Diallo, executive vice president of American Honda Motor Co., in the announcement. Note the plural in that sentence — "models" — because the follow-up question every S2000, Integra Type R and Civic owner is asking is which nameplate is next. Acura has not named one.

What Has Not Been Published

Acura has not published per-part pricing for the program, so any specific price circulating this week did not come from the company — parts are priced through dealers and DreamShop individually. There are also no performance figures to report, because this is a parts program, not a new car. What owners can do today is check the catalog against their own car's needs at a dealer. And for the parts the aftermarket already covers — our own catalog carries first-gen NSX fitments from APR, Seibon, BC Racing and Injector Dynamics — the factory program is a complement, not a replacement: heritage parts keep the car correct, the aftermarket keeps it evolving.
