I have a 1990 s13 ,

im having problems with my steering wheel :[...so you know how when you turn the wheel all the way and it stops when it reached the max, well mine keeps going and going ...

anyone know what the problem is ??

also when i hit high speeds on each gear my steering wheel and dash shake like crazy !! <--- and i mean it !!shakes really really bad , could it be the clutch ?

i have a ka24de greddy turbo full set up, with RC fuel Injectors , forged pistons its pulling 300 something Hp , but i still have the stock clutch

could it be that its the clutch ?

it also moves to the right like it needs an allignment ..

also question ...the lines connected to the master cylinder , the steel ones do they run all the way down as steel or do they connect to a silicone hose ?

another question ....my brake light switch is driving me Crazy !!! it was working fine now it doesnt wanna work anyone have a pic of how its soppose to be connected? i dont think i have the right switch

thanks

Have someone watch the steering linkage to the rack while you turn the steering wheel. Either the coupling is loose, or your steering rack is bad.

Your shaking could be due to warped/unbalanced rotors.

It's extremely dangerous to drive your car with all those problems.

Thanks :] for help .

but it doesnt shake when it i apply the brakes ... it shakes when it gets to high RPM's around 40mph then i shift it goes away but every gear it shakes ..

ah i know its dangerous... the guy i bought the car off , did a super mickey mouse work on it , everythings is all half assed , especially the wiring , he ran out of electrical tape and started to used duct tape :[
