Question On Improving Handling

Well I'm sure that alot of people have probabaly asked this, but here it is Im trying to impove the handling on the car i lovered it and got illuminas shocks but now I want to decrease the power steering, from what I undestand there are a couple of ways to do it, one of em is to get a manual steering rack but I dought they have em for a 4th gen maxima, and the other way is to get a smaller crackpulley so the power stirring pump would turn slower and there for gvie out less power but problem is that It would effect the rest of the accesorites such as AC and altenator, so my question is there any way to do this wiht out givin less power to the rest of the accesories or even any other way to do this

older cars have a screw or nut on the steering box you adjust, but ... ive never worked on such things on newer cars.

they probably stopped doing things like that many moons ago, but atleast in the past they had them.

You cannot adjust the amount of power assist our cars have.
If you'd like to own a 4th gen with nice tight steering, buy a 1999 model.
