hey, if you want power steering, then have power steering. sometimes it's a bitch navigating parking lots at very slow speeds, but considering my car never had power steering, i'm not adding it.

High demand my friend, and there's no end in site! Well maybe, a lot of people in the end will most on to the higher HP of nissans and toys, but real honda lovers will really never leave!

thats because you had a 240. 240's are in even more high demand since that crappy *** fake *** movie tokyo drift came out. fwd sr20's can be had for waaaay cheaper (non turbo DE) and all you have to do to make it fast is get a gti-r manifold throw a t28 on there. no need to worry about cracking a sleeve.
