why go thru all the trouble to add power steering, it really doesnt take that much more effort w/out power steering. plus, at higher speeeds you wont even notice you dont have it.

If you have a 17inch rim and wide tires, no pwersteering is a pain specially parking in tight spaces.
You will need.
1. Pump
2. Hoses
3. Rack and pinion with powersteering.

if you cant drive a civic that has a 19:1 non power steering rack with 17's then you either need to lift weights or get rid of the car becuase it should not even affect it that much.

This was covered not even 2 weeks ago! SEARCH my friend.
You need:
ps rack
ps pump
lines (for the above)
bracket that mounts to the head(for pump)
belt
reservior
be sure your crank pulley has the ring for the belt!
