Dammit! For a second there I stopped feeling guilty for having a dirty engine bay.

Volvo is so cheap and plentiful. $70 or cheaper at every pick a part. MR2 is $350+ and you have to know a guy who knows a guy, or ship it from across the country via ebay.

Good to know. Got much info on it in your build thread?

Engine is out. Feel like were finally getting somewhere. Going to clean and prep parts of the engine bay, flare my hard lines. and that should be it for the engine bay. Lots of little things here and there though

Yeah have a bunch in my build thread, and some on the diy electric car forum where a lot of the EHPS info is at. The only tricky thing with that pump is that there's only 1 brand of hydraulic fitting that seals even though its got a "standard" size thread
