Power steering delete braided lines ??


Recommended Posts

Also could anyone say weather removing the ps would make torque stear worse or slightly better my car is constantly trying to put me in a hedge I know a LSD is the ans but that's not an option at the min if removing the ps is going to make it worse I don't think I would bother until live got a LSD in the car it would almost make it un drivable if it was any worse

Gone down the mrS pump route. It is a large pump so not ideal for boosted cars though. I've opted for this 1 because i like to keep parts oem toyota and in theory it should be able to be wired up to be speed variable, i wont be able to test it untill its back on the road though

Mine with an lsd was pretty noticable, mines a ae111 oem helical (trd) item so torque biases so throws the power to whichever wheel has more grip/isnt spinning so that can cause worse torque steer than if it was a clutch type lsd which locks both wheels together.

I see what you're saying, in my head removing it would make it worse as you would have to apply more force to cou ter it.

However i guess your thinking is with it being heavier from no PS, thats going to reduce the amount of torque steer as it would need more force to pull the steering.

that's what I was thinking tbh with the steering not being so light that I wouldn't have to put so much input in to correct it

I know it's not going to solve the problem but any improvement would def help the way the car performs on the back roads giving the car gears and keeping it in a straight line can be a challenge at the best of times

With power steering it can be easier to over counteract it. Leaving you zigzagging everywhere.

yeah totally agree with this mate my car tends to pull me left and between trying to give it gears and correct the steering you can easily find yourself on the other side of the road
