Re: Sourcing 98+ 5sfe block - very easy or something I'm missing?
Thank you all for the responses! So then the strong 98+ blocks with the thicker walls are actually in UK models too - that's good! P.s you could import a bare block for 400-500 from the states.

Theoretically, more understeer but I want to hear some real life feedback! In my 16 years of MR2 ownership I was always on 20mm stagger and have learnt to live w...

Re: Power Steering
Hmm
Id be very interested to know your findings.
I have an intermittent p/s on/off issue and just realised that as long as I hear that whining noise p/s works fine but after a little while that it stops my p/s goes off.
