Default ITR steering vs. 3rd Gen Prelude 4ws

Hello.

I'm interested in acquiring an ITR, but I have one concern: steering. I checked up on the official turning circle (10.6m) and it appears to be about the same as for my car - the 3rd Gen Prelude 4ws.

I absolutely love the steering on my prelude...I want to maintain as much of that feel as possible. Sometimes it almost feels like I'm pivoting when doing circles in the parking lot

Does anyone think I'll notice a drop in steering capability going with the ITR ? Is there anything I can do about it?

As for steering sensitivity, I haven't read up on that much, but I know that I'd have to ditch power steering to do anything about that (unless I use a smaller wheel). I'll do more searches on this unless someone feels like linking me to useful threads about my options

Thanks for any input

I disconnected the power steering out of my Type R and really liked the difference in feel of the road. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=462824

excellent resource there! Thanks

Anyone have any comments on the ITR vs 4ws lude (steering response and all)?

I'm not talking about sensitivity here, just overall steering capability.

Thanks for any input
