Removing all the components and emptying the fluid didn't change the feeling at all for me - just saved ~5kg. It'll take you a week or two to get used to the heaviness so give it a chance.Quote:

Yes it was mate :)
Doing the trick above makes it easier than just removing the belt I've learnt.
I drove a mates eg without p/s a couple of days ago.
Brilliant through the bends,the corners,feels excellent!
But to daily drive like that,in some tighter places that I drive,I can see myself getting sick of it and wanting p/s back.
I want MR-VTEC's setup.

So , to make a statement removing the belt is not indicative of how a proper vented ps pump removed rack would feel.
A properly vented looped rack with plenty of fluid and room to vent will run great and last as long as a normal ps pumped rack. I have been running a custom kit on my car and a dozen around Sydney for over 4 years and not one leak or issue. Builds your guns too .
Well,share FFS!
I wouldn't buy one MR-VTEC,I would end up trying to copy it and if I can't I wouldn't do it..
Put it this way $100 is more than I would spend on a 'kit'.
Why don't U guys just share your knowledge,what's the issue/problem?
Why not just share ya knowledge instead of trying to make a buck from it,JUST SHARE.
It's BS all this secrecy,makes me not want to be on here.
Power Trippin' to da MAX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well,I feel better after saying that.
So,yeah,sounds great,I would spend $10,000! on p/s!!!
Lets do it!
haha beeze your not the only one who thinks like that, no one tends to share mate everythings a secret, and make a buck out of it
Such is life,I'm no dummy,but as a team,Ozhonda FAILS big time at networking,the recieving and sharing of knowledge.
Cars ego,ego cars,they can't be seperated.
I guess I'm learning lots...Keep ya head up brett..
