Hey guys, I need to install a power steering cooler cause my steering keeps cutting out when I'm autocrossing. I searched everywhere for a writeup on this with some specs but can't find anything anywhere, even 240sx tech! I've heard this is a common problem so I'm surprised there's nothin out there. Anyway, I have an s13 with a KADE. I was wondering if any one knows specs on what size hose I need to run for the return, and what lengths about I might need? I read somewhere that the hose is 3/8, but it looks like the line to the pump from the reservoir (high pressure?) is about 3/8, and the one coming from the rack to the reservoir is smaller, but I'm not sure the size. I figure I'll just mount it in front of the condenser.... if there's anything else I should know or any advice please let me know! I don't have a ton of technical experience, I'm just trying to learn! Here's the cooler I plan on getting:
