put this in the other thread, before I saw this... obviously...
questions: 1. Wouldn't an aluminum reservior get hot? 2. All parts in stock, and will ship together? 3. new designed reservoir correct? 4. New lines right? 5. This deletes the p/s sensor? is that a stressor on the car or system? In terms of breaking something else? 6. also trying to decide if I should get the cooler as well since I never had it before, why should I need it now? I was looking at the power steering kit for the KA, Mine just started leaking a week or two after I detailed the engine for 3+ hours GGGRRrrrrr... I have been looking through threads on this kit/company. Seems like little issues here and there. Hoping these are all worked out. Thanks. just for info car is 97 kouki with 88.6K on it all stock except inner/outer tie rods.

Yeah we had a couple issues, I guess its to be expected when you're doing something no other company has
The issues were promptly fixed! And the kit is flawless now. Now for the questions: 1. Wouldn't an aluminum reservior get hot? It gets heated, not enough heat to do harm or change performance under normal conditions. Doesn't your engine get hot? Our reservoir has a tiny pinhole on the cap, and is a cooler in itself 2. All parts in stock, and will ship together? Correct. Everything is currently in stock ready to ship. 3. new designed reservoir correct? Correct. Its simply extraordinary. Theres a lot of R&D in this piece! 4. New lines right? We wouldn't do it any other way 5. This deletes the p/s sensor? is that a stressor on the car or system? In terms of breaking something else? Not at all. Actually, most of the power steering sensors on your cars are no longer working. The sensor just changes your idle 50 to 100 rpms up while steering at idle. 6. also trying to decide if I should get the cooler as well since I never had it before, why should I need it now? 90% of our customers do not purchase the cooler with the kit. I would recommend it for a road race or drift car that will be out on the hot pavement for extended periods of time. With drifting, its usually fairly short runs and by the time it would get heated enough to hinder performance you're headed to the pits. Hope these answered your questions. Let me know if not! Quote:

1. yes my engine gets hot, but since the aluminum reservior is, well, aluminum, shouldn't it get hotter than the stock one? And It's my DD so if anything spirited driving will be it. Just trying to figure it out. 2. how is the install? unscrew this, that, and this, drain here, Then 3. with the pinhole in the cap, does it leak out from there? 4. "Also, theres no need to turn your wheel left to right when idling " I find myslef noticing when I do turn the wheel when dling more now than ever before thanks to this comment. Like when I am pulling out of a tight spot, or parallel parking, getting out of a driveway. should I give it gas when it's struggling lol? 5. And the copper washer is gone now correct? that was the part that was causing the leaking in the earlier version correct?

2. http://www.chasebays.com/content/downloads/ChaseBays240sxPSKitInstallGuide.pdf 3. This is answered earlier in the thread, the reservoir has internal baffles. No leaks from this. 4. I think you looked too deep into that. I was meaning as if you were sitting at a stop light turning left and right because you were bored. Sorry for being unclear. Your car will NOT die, and you won't have to worry about this at all. Unless you have some electrical problems, as stated earlier in the thread. But you would already be experiencing issues if so. 5. In some cases it was. We just changed the fitting on the low pressure side to a straight cut instead of o-ring.

called and reached vm. But How do you know when it's the pump/reservoir/ or lines? I found the leak. Little bit from the reservoir, but the dripping is coming from the back of the pimp. Not sure if it's the pump itself or the hose itself.. Also I have more lines than in the directions. Are yall missing some lines? My car is a stock s14 ka. Is the pictured directions for another engine s13 sr? s13 ka? etc.
last questions I swear. haha. for now...

Im not sure what you're asking. Did you order our kit and you're saying you received more lines than in the instructions? Just know you will get a much faster response via email or phone (during biz hours) We try to check this everyday but sometimes there just aren't enough hours

A picture for ya. I ditched the stainless bracket deal and fabricated this mount for a factory location mounting. I also took about 6" out of the low pressure return and the feed line was perfect length to wrap around and under my hotpipe. Still doing my mockup so nothing's painted.

the picture wasn't for you. But for the cooler why not slide a hex head cap screw down the slot there?

That bracket looks good!
For the cooler, a hex screw works. Zipties is what we did on our car. =) All PM's replied, thanks!
