    Power steering......power steering

    what is that.....no really is it blinker fluid?...........no really in a small car like this it really isn't needed. it is needed more if you have a bigger car needs help turning. so really i think if someone on this forum put the honda 4 wheel steer on a festiva that is true turning ability. but ya power steering in a car like this is kinda not a must. only if you want it.

      yeah I know that the festiva doesn't need power steering( none of my other Festivas have it) but the car has it so why not use it and I have driven this car with out power steering because it had a leak and when I got it and it had no power steering fluid and was a heck of alot harder to steer than my other cars without power steering and besides on cars that didn't have that many options when you have one that has an option that isn't common it is worth keeping

        I choose performance over luxury. Once I swap my B8 in, my whole A/C unit will be for sale.

                    i think it might be.....i looked at my car today needs alot of exterior work but not too much. but other than that. if you need the trany from mine you can have it i am going to look at putting the trany in from the B3 if it is a 5 speed your welcome to it.

                      That would be awesome as the one in my 93 keeps getting worse but it is still hanging in there

                          I can only imagine 145's with power steering lol. With my inflated 185s, it's no work at all getting the wheel turned without PS.

                            yes but your car doesn't have power steering from the factory I'm not saying that it is hard to drive but my 93 without power steering and 175-70-13s drives way easier than this car with 155-80-12s when the power steering isn't working

                              my car has 155r12 75's on it i love it but they are all dry rotted i love it so much.....i cant wait to see if the 4wd set up can work under the festiva. i hope it can but also you don't need power steering.... unless you want it.

                                Yep, its a pain driving something with a power rack and the power steering not working. Worked on two identical Nissan trucks once but one didnt' have PS. Way easier to drive than the PS one without the PS belt on. If its got a PS rack, it needs a PS pump
