R34 Gtt Steering

[vic_sky33]

hi, does anyone out there have the same feeling of a heavyness in steering or is it just me. the power steering works im guessing as i can turn ok, but yet it feels heavier than other cars. previously owned a 33 which felt like a feather compared to this???

i've had no troubles with the steering myself, i've driven a 33 before but my 34 seems more softer.

i can vouch that my r34 has a somewhat heavier steering, than the 33... strange..

agreed same here

i thought it might have been heavier after the 19's went on... but not sure.

definately heavier than the 33 for me

I found the power steering on my 34 to be very nicely weighted. And it gave very positive feedback. Sure it's haevier than my parents old magna but it's a much better steerer.

steering seems good to me... i prefer abit of weight in steering my g/f civic u can turn the wheel with one finger which aint that good in terms of steering feel.

Pwr steering is fine here...a few things can affect the weight of ur steering...

1. Tyre pressure

2. Width of tyre

3. How much thread you have left..

4. Weight of wheel

intentionally heavier. or a better word to use would be 'direct' rather than the word heavy. More feel of your rubber to the floor.

ok so more direct would be the word, so theres nothing that is damaged or worn. it came back from a service and felt heavier to me, its got me quizzed.

33 steering is close to the same set up, not usre as to why that would differ so much

[deant1]

what kind of service did you have done? just a basic service?

okey dokey

chucked 17's back on

steering is lighter for arm strength.

still feels good and accurate

and yeah much wider on the 19's

and heavier i would say

so heavier feel makes sense for my ride
