Power steering leak

[Bleach1]

I have a power steering leak on my R33 and since its almost time for rego i wanted to fix it up. Before i looking for the source does anyone know of any common places on an r33 where the power steering leaks?

hey bro

Power steering rack boot lid. It must be completely worn out and ripped apart. I just had mine done today and cost me $60 for it for a brand new one installed. Not a 100% sure that is the cause in this case but hoepfully it helps. There is one on each side, so check both sides.

Is that what smells?

Nissan said it was slightly leaking... does it give off a foul odour?

[MrMeaner]

My steering rack started leaking a while back in my R33, I got it checked out by a mechanic, and he found that it was the rack seals that were leaking. So all the rack seals needed to be replaced, I just about fell over when they told me the price of getting new seals ($550NZ). What I ended up doing was buying a 2nd hand steering rack ($200).

You could try NULON powersteering stop leak, It managed to stop the rack leaks in my old prelude, could be worth a try.
