    Manual Steering.

    ive driven without power steering with awhile.. the only bad thing about it is parallel parking... if u live in a rural area where you dont have to parallel park, then its much more tolerable. i love driving on the highway with it though, it always points straight and it feels more responsive...

    both times i had misses, it was because of a faulty injector...i doubt the oil leak would cause that unless it managed to get in between the spark plug and wire

    should i trade it for this

    you thought a n/a FC was fast? if you complete your GTE swap you would put buslengths on that FC. i like the FC and all but i hate the powerplant.. like others have said, poor gas mileage, no low end grunt, rebuilding the motor every 70-80k miles b/c of apex seals... no thanks. its only 1.3L...

    let's play "what's that noise" again

    i think mine does that.. its a rapid clicking noise.. like click-click-click-click-click...i read before that its just the valves being a little loose and that its normal, nothing to worry about. this is what rod knock sounds like...
