1. The Honda Civic Type R has an electric motor to power the power steering so as not to take power away from the engine.
only to take up load from the alternator to power the leccy PAS pump.
your forgetting mine and andy's cars, our parents cars, the farmers pickup, ML merc and fork lift, and the lawn mower. :lol:
You're pushing it Conan :roll: :wink:
2. The Noble M12 GTO-3R uses a Ford Maverick block, not, as is commonly thought, the Mondeo block. It's stronger apparently.
ok then.
1940's US Army M3A1 white scout half tracks were repaired in the field using pistons turned from beech. And alot of other cars can wooden pistons.

The Honda Civic Type R has an electric PAS system which takes no power away from the engine, but takes all the feel out of the steering.

My left testicle has always been slightly bigger than my right testicle, however I am still able to fit both testicles in the majority of cars.

4. The lotus Elan was made the wrong size, the engineers forgot to account for the bakelite/plastic exterior expanding during manufacture.
As a result all Elans are aprroximately .8" longer and about .3" wider than as designed

Dog poo used to be white back in the eightis due to the high calcium supplements put into the food back then. They don't do it any more, hence no more white dog eggs.
