I've read about a few people who just removed their power steering belt and from the lack of posts about any problems they don't seem to be having any. Of course that doesn't mean there haven't been any complications, maybe it only means they didn't post about it.
Still.... I want to try it and I've been reading up a little. I didn't think much about different ratios or castor settings until I read this thread though. I had an 82 Prelude that turned wonderfully in parking lots and on the roads without any power steering.
Are there any mechanical issues that could come of a "power steering belt delete" and should one be worried about doing anything other than simply disconnecting the belt? I understand the weight savings that could occur if the PS pump was removed but I haven't looked closely at mine to see if it can just unbolt.
I'm talking about a 2000 Civic....
