Thanks Darin. I saw that article too. It's on my list of to do's.

He's done a bunch of cool things with that NHW10 like rear discs from a Corolla, the undertray. He turbocharged it!!1!. Yes, you read that right... a turbocharged Prius. He put in an oversize rear anti sway bar. Hacked the power steering electric assist for better road feel. And he gets paid to do it. Good work if you can get it.

I have my work cut out for me.
