I've driven it A LOT since replacing the rad and as long as I keep it full of fluid I have no problem with heat ...

Re: WTB: V6 seats

Call Logels (scrap yard) in Waterloo - they have a black 94 MX3 there. I picked up some stuff for my car last Friday. Looked at the seats at that time and they looked pretty decent - needed a little cleaning, but nothing a vacuum couldn't clear up.

Re: My throttle is driving me nuts!!!
