no probs ill get some photos and post them up with a few instructions , mounted under front guard,should be same for your s14, just got the pump on a switch and only really use it for driving under 40k, you could go to the trouble of wiring it up to a speed sensor but my motors never last long enough to warrant this, its got computer gremlins that i am working through at the moment.

Why not use OEM VH41DE pump? Mine does fit in S15 without any problem

my pump had about 3 hi pressure
lines coming of it with a gaint
surge tank thing that bolted to
the block from one of them ,
guessing because the 4WS .looked
very confusing so pulled it off

thinking of using a MR2 stering
pump at this stage

cheers bud
