I would just tell her to get used to it, power steering is just another thing to go wrong and it probably involves a lot of work to fit it aswell.

Try putting a new pump on

It most probably would fit but you would spend so much money changing it as you would need new rack, new pump, new pipes etc

No powersteering is way better than ps I think lol. Its a bitch when doing 3 point turns and stuff but you don't really do them often. She will get used to it mate, I thought it was weird when I had mine. In a saxo, when its moving, its probably lighter steering than ps anyway :y:

It is a big job to swap everything and pretty costly, you would probably benefit more from selling it and getting a model with Power Steering.
