Non power steering lude

Post by Prelude danny » Thu Nov 12, 2015 6:02 pm

The pas tube that sits in front of the radiator has broken and snapped due to being rusty, I wondered if anybody on here has deleted there pas system as I did on my civic yrs ago and loved it, if they have is it still easy to drive at low speeds

The Lude is a heavy old car especially at the front so ok to drive while moving but maneuvering will be hard popeye work

unless this will be a track dedicated car, I would highly advise keeping your PAS matey

I removed mine on the racecar and wouldnt advise it for road use

Its a ballache moving car when its virtually stationary

On track is a different matter you have more positive feel in the steering in corners

Previous owner on my lude removed the pas.. I only currently use the lude for road driving. It's a pain in the arse, for town driving.. I had to kiss my parallel parking good bye!

Yeah I really should of waited for to buy a lude with pas.. :/

Mine is 80% track & 20% road and im still keeping mine for as long as i can. Im even fitting a better oil cooler to the system as a few track sessions really heat the pas fluid up. :lol: And my rack is starting to leak so trying to make it hold out as long as poss. When the rack eventually jobbies itself i will loop it. :lol:

If all they did was loop the lines and remove the pump/remaining pipework, it would be quite possible to refit it, using parts from a breaker.
