heheh no worries.
Now if I can keep mine from blowing the bloody outlet line of the power steering pump off I would be stoked.

What about an under drive pulley for P/S pump? Do you think that would help?

no it needs the high revs to work properly. For some reason the banjo bolt is working itself free. I think it is the copper washers are work hardend so will replace them this week.

"it needs the high revs to work properly"
Can you explain? That is very interesting. I have never ran across any information like that concerning the steering and I truely would like some more first hand information. Thanks I understand about the banjo fitting. Tony

Because the Skyline is a high reving engine most pumps will cavitate. I know this as one of our club's sponsors drag GTR removed the hicas as it was unsafe and not wanted. by doing so they had to change the pump. the Primera and Skyline pumps are identical except one is for a 4wd car the other for a 2wd. the problem came in under revs it cavitated and they lost steering.
so they built a high bryed using a primera pump and a GTR pump. they used the primera pulley as it was already on. It did not give proper steering since it was too big. They had to switch to the GTR pully for it to opperate properly. That would indicate the pump needs higher revs to opperate properly. Now another thing I noticed is the slightly heavier steering on my GTR at lower rpm levels. Once the rpms increased the steering got lighter. it did not matter the road speed. I have confirmed this numorous times in three different GTR's. The actually steering is much more repsonsive from about 4,000 rpm and higher than at say 2,000. It is very noticable.

I find that very strange. Cavitate? Cavitation should only happen at higher rpms, not lower. At least from the knowledge I have from studies I have read about submarines. Normally cause by the prop turning too fast, causing bubbles. If the prop is turning slower, it should not cavitate.
I can see why the pump would cause this at low rpms.

That is correct and as I re-read my post I can see how it would have been confusing.
I thought about binning the 4wd steer system as honestly I have no need for it and going to a primera pump, but since it would begin to cavitate at revs above 7,500 rpm that is not such a good choice. Merely changing the pully to a larger size to avoid this is not such a good option as I would have to fabricate a new braket system in order to get a belt that would fit it properly.
