We want pictures Jeff!

Power steering...

Can I take the power steering unit off an MR2 that has it and hook it up or is there a bit more cutting and pasting to do?

So that was you?! I was saying to myself "Is that Jeff?" When you called at me at the start but wasn't sure, sorry about that. :oops:

I saw the video. That things sounds bada**!

Were you at El Toro on Saturday? If so I did not see you.

If you need paint I know someone who owns a paint shop. $1,500 for a very nice basecoat/clearcoat paint job. Much less for a mixed base/clear.

So what engine is in that thing exactly?
