Ma61 steering ratio ! Sun, 07 September 2003 15:28 Go to next message
Any ideas on decreasing the ratio of steering ?


(less steering wheel turn -> more tyre turn)

You want a quicker steering rack?

This is correct....


the Ma61 wasnt built for tight hairpin corners and schickanes (?) schicanes (?) ( S bends Razz)

With the addition of a small steering wheel to accomodate elbow room the steering ratio is annoying to throw around..

I've never had a problem with my MA61... I reckon the steering ratio is about spot-on. Anyway, if you really want quicker steering you'll need shorter steering arms. If you're lucky you might find something from another Toyota which bolts on, but more likely you'll have to modify your existing ones.

By the way, the correct spelling is "chicane". Razz

A few people, mainly autocross people from the states bitch about the rack on the Mk2 being too slow, but I'm yet to see any of them do anything about it.
