Thread: HOW TO: B13/B14 Electro-Hydraulic Power Steering

subscribed

Ok so now that the motor and trans is out of the car and out of the way I am going to get the lines and wiring sorted soon. I will be doing a rear alternator mount mod as well so I am looking to now mount the pump on the trans next to the engine.

Here's my EHPS mounting location. Since it's on a P10 chassis, the coolant overflow reservoir has to be relocated.

Loving this project.

Once I get my rear end assembled and back in the car I will get back on this. @KillerKrossover what kind of changes have you seen? Any improvements? Any advice?

Unfortunately, I have been very slow with this project, lol. The parts have been sitting around for 2 years, hopefully I will finish it up by end of this month. I was going to do a how to write up but you beat me to it, lol, and so I will add so to your thread.

Here are the parts needed to complete the project.

1. Pump
2. Three connectors with pigtails, my pump didn't come with them
3. High pressure hoses, made to custom length, got mine from a company that makes them for the 240sx
4. 3/8" steel tubing for the low pressure return, got mine from Pepboy in 4' length
5. Nissan EPS fluid, at $12 a bottle is a lot cheaper than Toyota $60-$70 a bottle.

You rock man thanks! Where did you get the pump? I have a feeling mine doesn't work...call it a hunch...

No problem. I got my pump from a member of the SpyderChat forum.

Since your pump is dead, and if you feel adventureous, you might want to check out Nissan's electric power steering pump on the 2012 and newer Nissan Altima. The Altima EPS could work and the pump looks easier to install. The reservoir is 90 degree from the body so it would be easier to package.

Hmmm may have to explore this option... It keeps the Toyota taintedness away! LOL JK (Miss my Taco)
