In my search to speed up the steering in my C43 I stumbled upon a way some nissan guys take car of a slooow steering box.
It seems you can swap the pit arm (arm from the steering box) for a shorter arm (non power steering boxes have shorter arms). This seems to increas the ration 8-10%.
Does anyone know if this might be possible on our cars? Did they ever produce the W202 without power steering?? If they did it might be possible that this mod could be done without any major downsides.
The only one I can think of it left toright turning might be increased and might require the adjustment of the stop bolts...
Any ideas on this??
