Hey,

I’m fairly sure I know what I need, but just to make sure I wanted to ask here.

I understand that Zenki S13’s have the power steering lines running the opposite side than all other USDM and JDM s-chassis cars.

So to do any motor swap and retain power steering (from what I understand) I will need:

1. S14 power steering resorvior
2. S14 power steering lines

Anything I’m missing?

Thanks,  
Dan

Uhm I have heard that the SOHC steering lines can be unbolted and finessed/bent to reach the DOHC steering pump location.

^I believe Jesse did this, usure though.

I used USDM DOHC PS lines and resevoir. S13 stuff, for my SR into 89 coupe.

That’s what I thought. How hard is it to run those lines?
