hey any of you guys had the power steering section of your udp milled off? if so does the belt line up ok with alternator pulley? does the belt hit any screws or bolts? thanks for any help

 

i'm curious to know what it feels like to drive a car w/o power steering.

 

why would you remove powersteering? un less of course you have a 10 second car?

 

You really need powersteering with a 3000lbs street car.

 

no i dont actually need it i have been without it for 4 or 5 months (not that hard to steer), and my car doesnt weight 3000 lbs

 

yea its not that hard to steer, just when ur goin like 10mph

 

pm Dandymax he may have something to offer ?

 

A car the size of a Max w/o power steering is unparkable except in Malwart's car park at 4 a.m. Why would you want to remove it, after all the work the nice Nissan people did in making a variable-rate system?

 

I would never remove my power sterring unless I was drunk and been hit upside the head by a semi truck

 

You can't mill the P/S section off because then your alt-a/c pulley would be out of line because its on the outside. If it was the other way around then it would work.

However, the udp only weighs slightly over a lb so it would be an exercise in futility.

Here is a pic of mine with no P/S or A/C and 33" 4 rib alt belt.

 

I never hooked mine back up after installing my UDP. I do like being able to feel the steering inputs better, but yes... parking suuuux, especially in parking decks. I'll be reconnecting it when I tear my suspension apart soon. But it was kinda different for a few months.

Do I recommend it? --no.

 

Why do i want it removed??? well why do some of you guys want to put y pipes on or systems in?? because you want to, and if i want a 10 sec max and the only way to do it was remove my ps and ac then you bet i'll do it. as you can see now im not the only person that has done it. its all the little things that make it possible

 

??? how much does your car weigh?

 

not sure exactly, never weighed it but i know its around 2800 MAYBE less

 

There are 2 kinds of people on the org.

1) people with car problems and,
2)People that CREATE car problems.
