Did you car ever have power steering?

If you have the power rack and all your orig lines and the B18 came with a p/s pump, it should be easy.

BTW 'retain' means to keep possession, which i do not think you did.

yeah i have an si, it came w/ power steering. the guy who did the swap left the pump but it wasnt connected. I was just wondering if all i had to do was buy the ps belt and secure the pump?
