Morning everyone,
As I'm planning a winter underfloor restoration on my car, I thought I'd ask the question, as it is something I'm considering doing. I'm sure I'll get a load of replies asking "why would you want to" but I have converted a few cars in the past to powered steering and the main gain wasn't the actual assistance but the improvement in the gearing ratio of the power racks, giving a quicker rack, which was well worth the effort of doing the conversion. The difference with the NSX is that it's an electric assisted system, rather than a hydraulic system, so a bit more of a pain to swap, I would imagine. So I'm guessing there would be a fair bit of trim removal to install the electronics and harness/s etc.
Any info would be gratefully received and maybe this post might cause a bit of interest on the forum, as it's a bit quiet on here at the moment ;)
Cheers
