#30460, "building the PS system"




          

well unlinke a few of you guys, I want to keep my PS system on, not only for road courses, but this will be a daily driver. First of all I have a rebuilt pump, its pretty nice

Next bit I am thinking about getting is a new resivor with a filter, this maybe over kill, but I like overkill


Im pretty sure I could make it fit with some cutting, or relocate it where the charchole canister is at. All my lines I am replacing with AN ones
Finally I plan on using a nice Cooler, a nice plate-fin design from fluidline
Is there anyone I can do with the rack to make it stronger, beside rebuild it, which I plan on doing. TIA!

nice pump!
what size SS line you using for this?
as far as strengthing the rack the only thing i could think of was the mounting brackets. i was trying to remember what they looked like from when i had to replace mine. i cant remember if there were any rubber bushings or spacers. i there are id replace them with biliet SS pieces to reduce the possible flex and improve steering input/feedback.
other then that id look at the rod ends and seeing if theres anyway to upgrade them.
if your that close to your knuckle, and your serrious about racing, check out the 99 JDM Galant knuckle upgrade and step up to EVO brakes and wheel studs for the best possible feedback and control

I am going to look further into this, mabye some custom fabbing

I have been looking into the Galant knuckle upgrade, seems to be the way to go!

749 I love your quote on Ferry Porsche. it's so true, I love driving the 914, who needs big acceleration if you don't have to slow down?
