His "20b Conversion Deluxe Kit for FD3S Third Gen Rx-7" retains power steering and A.C.:

I am installing an electric steering motor under the dash. You can get them from unisteer and mk2 mania. It keeps the engine bay clean and frees up some power.
I also added a coleman reducer which makes it a 2 turn lock instead of 3.

Agreed.
Unless you're drifting, I see no need for powersteering either. Even with the weight of the 20b, the wheel is extremely easy to turn as compared to most cars. The road feel is enchanced, the potential of over-correcting is decreased, the weight savings is beneficial, the simplicity under the hood is beneficial. Many complain that looping the lines makes it way harder than "correctly" converting the rack too; I've ran both looped and converted and still notice nothing. Maybe they need to do some forearm curls The only time it sucks is when you're at a stand-still and try to turn the wheel. If you're moving .5mph its way easier

I've tried the non p/s and I have no desire to put any muscle into my steering wheel. I've gone with an EHPS as there is no room under the hood with turbo filter and v-mount ic. A Toyota p/s pump resides under the drivers side headlight. It is something similar to the MR2, with a speed sensor hooked to the Vipec.
I'm in the process of ditching the clutch fork for a hydraulic (push type) bearing on my T56, so I'll let you all know how the p/s works once I have the car running again.
Thanks
