i got an s13 with stock ka welded diff coilovers and no power steering ive had the car like that since i bought it, and ive been drifting like that ever since. ppl think im crazy lol but it works the only thing is just on the transitions its a little annoying i still get em but after a session im absolutely drenched in sweat lmao!!

but idk i wanna see what other ppls opinions are, i wanna see if anyone else out there is in the same situation as me cuz idk if i should buy it or just continue like this cuz soon im gonna plan on going to englishtown, idk how im gonna handle it w/o p/s....

lemme know guys thanks!! :)

Just get the power steering and call it a day.

[TheRealSy90]

Drift your car instead of going to the gym.

Win win.

[PurePontiacKid]

I've only really ever drifted with manual steering.

I fucking love it.

But my car is old so who the fuck knows.

now what did i miss?

fuck... im always missing all the action

[JFoxx]

with unmodded knuckles, you can drift fine without powersteering and its not too bad.......with modded knuckles, you need power steering, end of story....

A crappy video. Not much to miss.

I've got modded knuckles, too. The only time I noticed any increased steering effort was parking/parallel parking.

I know a few rx7 guys who drift with no power steering, and do it well. It's just a personal preference with or w/o power steering.

It's worth noting that there are Manual Steering Racks for FC's.

A car with the PS removed != a car with Manual Steering.

you're a moron

a car with PS removed (totally, including draining the rack) = manual steering

2 of my 3 cars are manual steering, drained rack. i dont even cap the holes, leave them open. been driving like this for over a decade.

Gotta keep those masturbating forearms strong somehow LOL.

Don't forget your spinach!!!

[BoostSlideWayz]

Honestly in my opinion its not as hard to steer with no p/s as people are making it seem. Ive not has ps on my s13 for awhile... and not had that hard of a time ... especially when going over 15 mph..... simple..im not buff at all and i have no struggle or muscle weakness after driving.

[96Turbo]

daily driving without ps is one thing (not that bad, although parking & low speed turning sucks)

60 mph lock to lock transitions while drifting is another thing entirely. the wheel gets pretty violent and you gotta be on your game.

i don't always drift. but when i do....i prefer power steering

[OutlawLui]

Fuck not having power steering, it sucks.

My apologies, you are correct.

I was trying to imply that most people don't do a complete PS delete, they just loop the lines and shit (or better yet, I've seen people with leaky lines just take the belt off). A full PS delete is the same as a manual rack, but I haven't seen too many people go through the proper de-powering procedures.

I guess I shouldn't always assume that I'm talking to the standard Zilvia idiot.

no power steering

Andrew Ridgeway MDU at Speedrome Indianapolis, IN. Effin Classy. - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIRPF5qdGhw)

boo fucking hoo

im sure tsuchiya complained all these years about his ae86 not having power steering


come on people, grow some nuts... hang them out a bit. men nowadays, carry man-purses with tampons in them

[David48]

That's stupid. It's like saying don't get coilovers because people used to slide on worse suspension. If you can get it, and it makes things easier on you then why not? Why make shit harder than it has to be?

You should sitck to lighting threads because right now you clearly don't know what you are talking about.

[coreyh]

ive drifted a buddies 510 w/o powersteering and an s14 w/ powersteering...so much better with, i ended up fighting the 510 the whole time.

[!Zar!]

You know how much harder it is getting road head in the city without power steering?

[ixfxi]

You should sitck to lighting threads because right now you clearly don't know what you are talking about.

you should stick to being canadian

25 and all of a sudden you're a pro drift driver?

[SlammedS13Tx]

same here man no power steering ! !

[Matej]

Why is there not a manual steering rack for the S-chassis yet?
There are so many other silly niche parts no one buys.

[psychos13]

Drift your car instead of going to the gym.

Win win.

Agree......

[David48]

Because you can just open a power rack and depower it to be just like a manual rack all on your own.

Mine is already de-powered so, but I would still very much enjoy a plug-and-play manual rack with some fancy quick ratio and extra long travel.

the ratio is the difference between a manual rack and power rack, as they require less effort to turn.

once you open the ports & drain the fluid -the internal seals add very little resistance.

im running a hicas rack in manual mode, we'll see how thats going to work out. should be fine.

[alexg103]

Just so everyone know draining the fluid is not the same thing as a mauel rack cars with a true manual rack I'd geared different designed to be easier to turn and not beed the assist...yes still harder but a oe car with ps rack drained and a oe car with a manual rack will not feel the same

[Shift n Drift]

its not hard if you learn to throttle steer...

[ShakotanGazelle]

I've never had a problem drifting without PS in my S12 or in my RX8, and I'm not a big guy either ~115lbs.

Maybe I'll fix my PS and give it a try.

[ixfxi]

1 year bump?

only to be reminded of how much cock most drivers suck, complaining about not being able to drive a car w/o PS

pussies

[ShakotanGazelle]

What is wrong with the people saying 1 year bump? Back from the dead?... Would you rather a new thread open about the same thing? Thought not... So shut your mouth or reply to the thread, stop trying to get your posts up by typing nonsense... Smh

I think Mike is probably the last person on Zilvia to be trying to get his post count up..


On topic, drifting without PS isnt that bad.

[driftsucky]

It's an unneccesary PITA for no reason. Nobody's arguing whether or not it's doable. It's like the difference between buying a chick a bunch of drinks, or taking her on a sober date where she talks to you for a sh1tton of hours. Either will get you the boo-tay, but which is the path of least resistance?

not sure if you realize this

but when you knockup that skanky drunk sea donkey, you're gonna have to listen to her shit for the rest of your life

age 33 and you dont know your ass from your elbow

Sig worthy response

[NotLowEnough]

i had mine depowered for a while and it is not too bad on gravel or if you are on dirt or something. i have tried to initiate a drift with my ebrake and it was almost impossible and im a pretty strong guy. i moved to power steering and i can promise you, it is worth EVERY PENNY you will spend for the parts you need.

Yeah. I guess that's a reasonable assumption to make from an obvious analogy.
