my maxima's steering feels kind of loose compared to other cars i've driven. is there a trick to stiffen the steering while also retaining power steering?

 

That's the way our 4th gens were built (unfortunately)

Good tires, proper alignment and ES buchings are about the only things you can do to help steering feel.

 

There was one person that replaced the steering rack with a different one, don't remember who. It was expensive though. Krismax is planning to put in an electronic PS pump ,which will allow him to adjust how much steering assistance it gives. We'll have to see how that goes. It will also probably be pretty expensive.

 

yea he paid about $1000 to do that, a bit pricy IMHO

 

i recently noticed that my tire pressure was low in my tires and when i added some air wow it felt so different. car rides real stiff over bumps but the car responds so much better to minute changes in steering input.

 

isn't there an adjustment thing that tightens the steering?

 

There was some talk of this awhile ago, but nothing ever came of it...not really sure why.

 

i'm pretty sure there is. i even know the name for it in my native language
