Re: Adding power steering (B18C-EJ1)
doesn't that car come standard with power steering? I just bought a 93 dx hatch and it has no options (no a/c, no stereo, nothing) but it has power steering.

Re: Adding power steering (Barabus)
The power steering is prolly the option you did get. Rather, the 1st owner got.
I was interested in switching my 1993 Si to manual, but I heard something about
the splines being different.
It has not been such a big deal, so I have not done much research. I don't feel like being a guinea pig just yet.

Re: Adding power steering (cyberhide)
i'm using a ps rack and subframe from a '98 integra on my '94 dx hatch(didn't have ps from the factory). Everything bolted in perfectly. There are holes to mount everything already there. The big advantage to the ps racks is the quicker steering ratio.

Re: Adding power steering (jgale)
Hmmm in that case, I may go powerless if I get off my ***.
I like the feel of no power steering. I wonder if there is a way to change ratios
before I put the non-power rack in the car. I'm sure this would also make turning that much more difficult when slow or still. Cool.
I suppose then I'll be one buff *****.
By the way, jgale... do you still have the manual rack?
Wanting to ship it to Phoenix??
