Ya, IDK... They're all engineers and shit on that board so I would imagine they knew about the regulator on the banjo bolt. But that's just my speculation.

Peace (or anyone else)- Why didnt you run a PS cooler on your setup after removing the factory hardline "cooling loop"? Is it neccessary to run one, or are the chances of boiling the fluid low?

I don't plan on getting the fluid hot enough. No heavy driving, maybe spirited back roads, but thats it.

SMALL UPDATE:

I haven't installed it yet, but the "Econo-Fits" for the PS lines, to small to fit around the hose that it claims. Shitty.

The way PeaceOnesxWai is actually pretty slick, and I kick myself for not thinking of doing it that way myself.

If you weld directly to the rack's upper housing, you'll melt the upper seal. If you take the upper housing off, and then remove the upper seal, you ruin it...and no one sells a replacement seal for it.

Talking

Yep, just like Cody said. You can't weld a fitting the rack n pinion upper housing without disassembling it, decontaminating the fuck out of it and good luck finding that seal. You have to tig it witch isn't as accessible to everybody and I do trust steel fittings much more for AN(JIC) high pressure stuff. The best would be if you are one or are friends with a machinist, you could get both fittings machined completely from scratch in one piece with proper specs. That just wasn't an option anymore without spending big bucks to have it done by the crooks around here. Peaceone's solution and mine are almost the same, but I prefer to not weld on the pipe itself

Oh by the way I forgot to say that mine was also relocated to the a/c compressor area to give space for turbo piping "up there"
I used flare tube nut for fuel lines before, its a pain and the tube usually cracks when you reach around -6AN.. so im a little iffy on doing that method. Plus it wouldnt be a smart idea to weld a fuel line
I chose to do the weld-on cause 1. its realiable and 2. its cheap.

I am running one but for the time i was doing my guide I hadnt order it yet. But for concerns, I would be perfectly fine without the cooler on DDs and light spirit driving. Im confident my AN line set up could handle alot more then DOHC PS line so I have no worries about it blowing.

Specify "cancel the pressure restriction"? Like removing the banjo bolt and adding AN fittings?

Black Fittings and Hose (stainless fittings are cool too, when needed) are an awesome way to 'hide' all of the lines required to make stuff work.
I bought the xrp ps hose and earls ps fitting and having a hell of a time and bruced hands trying to put fittings on the hose. Seems almost imposssible. Any easy way to install the fittings? thanks for help?

XRP is good shit. IDK what type of hose ends are for their PS lines, but they have a lot of crimped style fittings, aka you need to buy the tools (numerous thousands of dollars), or send them to XRP to have them crimp it for you, or if you order, you can specify the length and they'll make it for you so you don't have to double handle everything...

That is if it's a crimp end.

Might be resurrecting a dead question but I've noticed my power steering isn't necessarily the quickest anymore since AN lines and cooler.

Once I'm rolling everything is fine, but if I try to make a really sharp movement I feel a very slight bit of restriction and than everything is smooth.

When the car is idle it's hard as shit to turn sometimes.

Any solutions or ideas to this?

It is one of these two but I can't remember which goes to which off the top of my head. Obviously if you are running a larger AN hose than you would just need to find the correct part number for the it along with the correct thread pitch for the rack.

Pump High Pressure 16x1.5 Crush Washer -6AN 9919DFJERL
Rack Return 16x1.5 O ringed to -6AN 991955ERL

This is called "pump catch", and it's usually caused by not enough flow from the pump during movements that need it (such as quick movements or fast transitions). I've been trying to dial this out for a while now. I have a restrictor in my KA pump that is working perfectly with the giant reservoir I have, but I have yet to install my cooler, so I'm not sure how that affects things. It's a pain haha.

Are you still running the banjo bolt and cast outlet on your pump? That has a built in restrictor that you may need to remove with a decent size cooler. There are -6 adapters for that if you need ALL the flow, or restrictors of various sizes. You basically have to experiment haha.

For everyone else: I've been using a standard steel adapter fitting in my high pressure side with no leaks for a while now. No sealant, just tightened it good and tight...

Okay so I recently upgraded my entire PS system and I wanted to revise the parts list as the parts in the OP didn't work for me.

Little back round about my car: Completely stock KA24DE with all emissions attached, OEM airbox, silvia front end. I wanted to upgrade my PS system because the fluid would boil over super quick and make my steering feel like shit.

I got all my parts from Anplumbing.com. Please note I went with all black Earls plumbing but XRP will work just fine you just have to cross reference part numbers.

967110ERL -10 A.N. Male Weld Fitting. Steel x1 (this will be welded onto the bottom of your Stock PS reservoir and feed into the actual pump)

967106ERL -6 A.N. Male Weld Fitting. Steel x1 (This will be welded onto the return side of the reservoir)

Option A:
997110ERL -10 A.N. Male Weld-on. Aluminum x1 (make sure to get the aluminum one as the return line from the pump is aluminum on KA24DE/SR, however the KAE is steel)

Option B: I just happened to have a turbo oil return outlet fitting that actually fit on the steering pump. I just had to use a round file to shave some of the aluminum down where the screws attached so it would fit straight on the pump) Make sure to replace the little O-Ring that is on the pump so it doesn't leak.
http://www.jegs.com/i/Vibrant-Perfor...ductId=3151061

Just like the OP I decided to go with Push style fittings for my low pressure.

AT700167ERL 3/8 -6 Straight Super Stock Hose End. Aluminum. Black Hard Anodized x2 (I used these on my 15 row Setrab cooler)

If you're going to get a setrab make sure you also get two of these as they fit into the cooler so you're able to run the straight push on fittings listed above.
M22AN6 -6 22mm X 1.50 SETRAB Oil Cooler Adapter. 22mm x 1.5 to -6. x2

AT709167ERL 3/8 -6 90 Deg. Super Stock Hose End. Aluminum x2 (One goes onto the -6 weld on fitting for the cooler and the other goes onto the low pressure fitting on the steering rack)

AT709111ERL 5/8 -10 90 Deg. Super Stock Hose End. Aluminum x1 This will go onto the turbo oil return fitting I used for the steering pump.

AT704611ERL 5/8 -10 45 Deg. Super Stock Hose End. Aluminum x1 (This will attach to the weld on fitting at the bottom of the reservoir)

For my high pressure I decided to go with the whale tuned premade kit. Super high quality.

Now for the fittings on the steering high/low pressure. Everyone has problems with it leaking. I decided to go with the all star fittings mentioned previously in this thread.

ALL48211- Power Steering Adapter, Steel, Zinc Plated, -6 AN Male to 14mm x 1.50 Inverted Flare x1 (This goes onto the high pressure side. I didn't lathe these down, I just used some high quality thread sealant and it doesn't leak at all)

ALL48210- Power Steering Adapter, Steel, Zinc Plated, -6 AN Male to 16mm x 1.50 Inverted Flare x1 (Low pressure side on the steering rack)

780006ERL- 3/8 Push-On Hose. Black. Use Earl's Push-On Hose Ends. 6ft (This is for the reservoir to the return line and from the low pressure steering rack fitting to the oil cooler)

780010ERL -5/8 Push-On Hose. Black. Use Earl's Push-On Hose Ends. 2ft (This is for the -10 fittings from the reservoir to the steering pump)

Make sure the low pressure line from the rack goes to the left side of the cooler, and returns back into the return side of the reservoir.

As for fluid I used redline fully synthetic racing ATF. I bought 2 quarts and that was plenty.

I did test this setup at a drift event and I had zero leaks, and no boiling fluid. Make sure you bleed the air bubbles completely from the system.

I hope this made sense as this is my first write up. I will upload pics when I have free time.
