not even kidding... i hate drifting cars with PS, and unless its a new car i don't notice much. my steering rack is butter smooth, and it's super easy to turn.

idk, it's just never been a problem to me. now, if it were a PS rack, that was de-powered, then yes, i would hate it. but i have the manual rack.

more driver steering input. It helps 100000000x better. Now if you were in a corrollaaa manual rack would be fine.

manual racks arent bad, but i think you guys are talking about de-powered, power racks. NOW THAT sucks. but i drove all day at an event, and killed it all night multiple times over and i don't even get sore from it.... maybe it's easier, but i look at it as one less thing to break, or get dirt everywhere.

update - there's no updates...

lol i'm broke,its just sitting around waiting for me to get a few checks together.

i need a custom DS, or TII LSD/axles, still need a wideband, safc installed, and 4 injector clips soldered on. other than that it's close. i'm aiming for it to be done for the 25th vegasdrift event. if not, then the FD qualifier is on the 11th of july that i'd like to give a shot now that my car will actually be dialed unlike before. we'll see...
