honeslty. did what i did. Remote mount power steering. I just looped the lines and added a resivor and waaaalaa rack has oil at all times and no more leaks. YET i never had a problem with my power steering in the first place
If you dont need the room for modifications then i say fix it! I beleive that IF you have a STREET CAR/DAILY DRIVER then it should be easy to drive with all the accesories and bells and whistles. On the other hand if its a RACE/WEEKEND cruiser then it really dont matter.
I like my power steering, every time I get in a Civic I think about how much nicer mine is in parking lots etc. But if that shit breaks it's coming out, it's not that nice.
I personally prefer the cookie
I think I still have a high pressure ps hose if you want it. $15 shipped?
I'm with A18A I want the cookie too!!!
Would you be going to rack and pinion or whatever?
You in need of space? If not, i say keep it. You need an option to keep it and get a cookie...
I am designing a plate that bolts in place of the valve body that loops, seals, and demobilizes the offset pinion holder...
Keep it working, it's a touch of class.
UNLESS you repalce the rack with a proper manual type or closest thing to one that isnt a total duct tape popscile stick rig up.
Rip it out tim.
might as well fix it, it's nice to have for parking, it's one of the first progressive power steering systems made, well at least the first one to actually work. once you are above 15, the high pressure fluid is diverted away from the rack anyway and just circulates

I think I need a cookie also.

Not sure if it would work for the prelude. Looks similar, but PNs for the valvebody and such are different...
wood model> really?
