I am thinking about buying an RX7, but it has no Power Steering. Is this a problem?

/\ Lucky. though it would be awesome if I could just get a manual rack I dont think i could easily find a rhd one.
So I'm getting mine de-powered soon because my turbo is so big and its right in the way of the lines

Dont worry too much about the powersteering my car needed the belt for the PS but after a while you get used to plus it fun to see my friends struggle to move my car with two hands
( they thought they could steal it and drive off but they were two weak to move the wheel ) while i drive it with one hand like nothing

Are you experienced?

I hated the power steering on my convertible. It seemed like if I was at parking lot speeds and turned quickly from left to right, it couldn't keep up and lost power for a second. I know other people had the same issue. Very dangerous.... Then again the TII might be different... Anyways, I depowered the rack properly and never had that issue again : )

Have you seen my Wankel?

I have a properly depowered rack on my FC and my 91 Miata. I don't run anything too sticky for tires on my FC as it is just my daily driver. However on my 91 Miata, which wears R-Comps all the time, you definately have to put more muscle into your steering inputs.

This is a huge misconception. Taking the PS belt off of a powered rack does not simulate what the car will be like without power steering. You are actually fighting the fluids inside the rack when you do this, which will make the wheel harder to turn. There are good rightups on how to properly de-power a rack. Just seach.
My car is full depowered now.
