did you remove the entire hvac coil/fan box under the dash? That is the ONLY part in the entire car i’ve never been able to remove in 1 piece. Seriously, every single nut and bolt out of the car, the things stripped to a bare tub, and that piece will not come out as one. every time i’ve just get fed up and end up kicking it into a million pieces and using a prybar to get it out. If you know the trick to removing it, i would like to know for future reference. ---

In the engine bay… When the ABS is relocated, your not adding anything to the engine bay, I like ABS it makes me feel good… And doesn’t add clutter to my bay, is that a good enough reason for you? Don’t get your junk all rustled up bro. It’s like going spring skiing. It’s SO NICE OUT…you pack up your car light because its so nice you don’t need as much gear. And you leave your driveway with a loaded car…you brought your heavy coat, gloves, vest, ski pants, hat, boots and skis…and decided to leave the ski poles and sunglasses at home. Just didn’t make sense to me. I understand taking EVERYTHING out. That makes sense. But of all three of those, you chose to keep ABS? I was just looking for clarification, and I got it…I think. ---

you are going to regret not having heat. mine didn’t work in the mr2 for a while and it fucking sucked, all day long you wont care then night rolls around and all of a sudden shits fogged to hell and your freezing. also never go down south in the summer, learned that when i showed up to my sisters in the miata and it was 113 out without ac. ---

nothing better then cruising with no windshield wiper, getting caught in a downpour and trying to pull to the shoulder of the highway that you cant see, grabbing the wiper from the trunk to put it on, being soaking wet and then it stops raining a 1/4 mile later…and i was in nyc driving the rest of the way home soaked! this is no longer a build thread lol [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/coreys-s2000-build/261275.md?page=55) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/coreys-s2000-build/261275.md?page=57)
