Do they give you quicker steering, can you use them if you don't have power steering. If so I will buy them for $200 plus shipping

the only thing that will give you 'quicker' steering is another steering rack.
if you want more lock, then these are what you're after.

OK.
Where (z) denotes total steering angle in degrees at the wheel, if a given (x) degrees steering wheel rotation results in a given (y)mm of tie rod movement (connected to steering rack of given gearing), all else equal a shorter steering arm will give more degrees steering angle (z) at the wheel than a longer arm. See the attached diagram.
The seller says:

|
So the above statement is incorrect, as where 'quickness'  of steering is defined as increased lock for given steering input, the 'quickness' of the steering is in fact increasing with shorter arms.
But the seller also says:
| Steve-AE86 wrote on Thu, 11 August 2005 23:24 |
if you want more lock, then these are what you're after.
|
Where the amount of max (y) in the above diagram is not changed (ie. steering rack gearing is not changed), then it is true that max (z) will also be higher on the shorter arms. Basically the rate of change in (z) (actual steering lock) resulting from change in (y) (steering rack deflection) is a higher ratio for shorter arms and vice versa. So the seller's second statement is correct.
As for those prepared to jump on and rubbish my offer, the seller has every right to accept or decline at his option. In the absence of a specified price guide for offers, I tossed out an offer which reflected the value of the item on sale to me. If it's worth more to you, that's fine, how about you offer more and you can buy it?

ok einstein thanks for the essay LOL
ive got these in my car, the steering is definately quicker, and more lock is achieved.
if i didnt have these arms already, id be throwing $200 at steve right now, and thats the honest truth, i fuckin love em.
One of the things that great about them is, you know when your in the hills and you come to a tight corner, you turn the car in. If the corner is too tight, you will need to drop your outer hand to a lower part on the wheel, so you can keep pushing through the corner. But with the arms, you are able to leave your hands in the normal 9-3 position, and push through. When going through chicanes in the hills it makes it easier because you dont have to move your hands on the wheel as much.
oh feedback is also improved i find

Better for essay than misinformation. Some 16yo wannabe Takumi will take it as gospel then tell all his other Takumi wannabe friends on MSN and spam the forums with it and then where will we be?
