ryan lang Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 set of polybush engine mounts aquired for the when the new engine goes in, may even just chuck em on now.attempted to fit the skirts today, but the floor was wet! from when i actually cleaned it properly for the 1st time since japfest 2 and hoovered and polished ;) failed at fitting the skirts, no pics of it clean because it still looks abismal without skirts and a spoiler also accidentally de-badged the boot gunna clean up the shitty remains and see how it looks, and if it looks bad, im just gunna stick it back on somehow Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ryan lang Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 hmm it may have, ill have to check it in the light, because it was a bit dark for me to be bothered about it that much lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 just rip the power steering out ryan! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Starlet__SR Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Low fluid levels? Tensioner come loose? There should be a locking nut/bolt that may have come loose? Belt shagged lol? Pulley loose?D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 dunno, it was too dark to bother, will check in the morning or when im the wronng side of a hedge or something Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 pretty sure its just a case of looping a few pipes tbh. can remember reading a thread on here that explained quite well, ill try and find it;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 lmao i dont fancy no power steering in a daily, if it was an all out track slag fair enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5T4R7ET N/A Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 very easy to remove the powersteering, the fluid in and return are right next to each other so all you have to do it loop them.but if you do remove then leave some fluid in there, helps for lubrication. i am used to no powersteering so dont find it that heavy, but others dont like it. parking is when its heaviest and driving corning hard it gets heavy, but this gives you better feel.your problem sounds like a loose belt, screeching is normally a sign of it loose.

bucketep91 Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 its not as heavy as you might think ryan;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 its not heavy enough to effect my guns but its just not nice cornering without iti much prefer it with power steering though because the way my steering wheel is positioned etc. makes it hard to hide looking like im trying to spin an elephant on a kiddies roundabout Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joel_ep91 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 damn double post Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joel_ep91 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 no power steering is amazing im taking it out of red ranger as my runabout 91 has no power steering and its great going down the twistysits nothing like when your belt comes off your PS equiped starlet i think the racks have diffrent cog ratios between power steering and hulk it steering Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 adjuster bracket had come a bit loose, gotta weld the bracket on by the looks, because the block from the power steering and non pas block arent machined on the same line and the non pas block doesnt have the thread or the adjuster brackettightened it up for now as best i could Quote Link to post Share on other sites
