    I love what you’re doing. I like that you’re trying to modernize it and keep original Toyota as much as possible. A 5s oil pump and original Toyota crank gear has what you need for oem crank sensor mount and function. this will keep it all original and cleaner looking.

    I love your attention to detail on both Mr. Dos and that cool bike.

I’m not a wiring guru like you, and get a kick out of watching you piece together harnesses and pin connectors.

I'm just not too savvy because I do similar work as a hobby as Sarah but lack the foresight to actually film my work (plus I'm not as fetching in a halter-top probably). Still, Sarah's work speaks to a wide community of car enthusiasts. I've always been a Mister Two fan, though ended up with a spazzy Elise.
