For the amount of work it takes and the number of chances you have to screw things up (especially if you haven't done it a few times before), you'd be better off getting a low-mileage used one from Japan. Less than $200, usually. _____________________________ Your Forum Turbo Groupie... Also your official Forum EF and GTR Brain-Trust (in reply to sacicons) Post #: 14
