Ok, with my 4age swap I haven't been driving with any power steering for the last couple weeks. My celica feels totally different and turning when the wheels aren't rotating is a pain in da ass. Anyways, I noticed a big difference in control when I take the corners around my place. (i live out in the countryside). It feels much more like your in control. Overall, Power steering has its pros and cons. It does give more total control, but at the same time a full revolution of the steering wheel is a major drag. For now, i'll be the only one on 6G without any power steering in my celica. My tendons are pumped now!

What more would this do over just draining the fluid or pulling the powersteering fuse? It's still going to be a powersteering set up that's just not working. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy

Kwanza is right, there's a huge difference between a manual rack and a non-functional power steering rack. HUGE difference. The manual racks aren't hard to turn at all, they're very nice. Drive an MR2 sometime and you'll know what I mean. I'll bet that the rack from a Corolla could be fabbed up without too much trouble. -Doc -------------------- -Dr Tweak, 6GC's resident engine swap wiring expert extraordinaire Click here to see my swaps drtweak@phoenixtuning.com |
