Where to get power steering repaired?

[RaseR]

Hey all,

Just looking for some recommendations on where to take my R32t to have it's power steering inspected and repaired (may need new rack/pump recoed) - preferably in the SE suburbs.

I'd like to take it somewhere that works on imports and as such will be familiar with the p/s system and also knows where to get parts at reasonable prices etc.

Thanks!

Mine too

My pump is whizzing like anything, sometimes it fails going around roundabouts, its going to die really really soon

Thanks for responses guys! I'll also be interested to see what you come up with R31Nismoid.

Mine doesn't seem quite that terminal as yet - feels a bit vague every so often and after driving for around an hour, I find that low speed full-lock turning (parking building style) feels lumpy like the pump is struggling to provide power assistance and the rack sometimes groans loudly while doing so! Doesn't display these symptoms when the car is cold however....

I drive around 500km a week though, so I'd like it to remain reliable...hence - fix the problem before it becomes a big problem!

Old thread, but same question -

Did you guys find anyone around Melbourne who knows skyline power steering systems that you can recommend?

Cheers

damn dude, go any further back and you'd be talking to Jeebus

i had rack binding issues when on the track, but this was remedied via a p/s fluid flush followed by some top notch Castrol Transmax Z - $$ stuff, but completely smoothed out my issues on the track. The p/s fluid was black as anything when removed, probably cooked at prev driver days/track days. And yes, it's fine for p/s fluid despite what the monkeys at Autoshack/China cheap auto tell you
