I'm considering not getting the p/s lines as I am doing an SR swap in an '89 240. It would save me some money, and free up a few horsepower.Have you removed your power steering?

i didn't have power steering on my fastback. it wasn't too bad. i liked the feel of the road.

but just to give you a heads up, no power steering is cool up until a point. the more you do to your front end (i.e. wider/heavier wheels and bigger/heavier brakes) the more you're going to hate being without it.

I removed the p/s on my FC3S. It was just fine until I tried to park in a tight spot, or make a turn from a stop. It was a b|tich. I say keep it. P/S is nice.
