Prelude power steering line

[TalontedTSi]

Im heading off to the junkyard tomorrow, just wondering if I can use any 92+ prelude PS line or if its VTEC specific or what not?
Thanks

VTEC specific.

i believe the h23 one will work just fine, take your PS pump and see, i think some one has done it around here.

how many people have just run the accord PS pump and line (with the F22 PS bracket on the H22) with no problems? I hear a lot of mixed results, some work some hit the hood!? Im having trouble getting one and a TON of other things I need to get which are adding up

[phatdoughnut]

just run no PS... its awesome, it isnt even that difficult to turn, specially if you have stock tires and rims

[TalontedTSi]

Yea but see... this is my daily driver, my car to get me to college every day 30+ miles each way... My dsm is my race car with no PS, nothing but the essentials, built motor, big turbo and a lot of fuel... soooo when i want some of that ill get out the dsm... for now I want the accord to be fun but very tame and easy to drive anywhere anytime.

I don't think I even bothered trying that. I know Rebels tried that and it did work except the pump hit one of the supports on his CF hood.

well i read somewhere probably one late late night or early morning that it has and can be done but not sure the success of it. I mean if I have to ill go order one at honda or something but if not id rather put the money into paying off the damn H22

[phatdoughnut]

so? mine is a daily driver and i deal with it? i just try to stay away from parallel parking. but i do it some times too. its not difficult at all.

plus if you have to drive 30 miles each way, that is cake cause its freeway driving.

[TalontedTSi]

Ok, ill make a deal... If I cant find a line then I will run no PS til I can locate one... but in the end I dont want no PS I have a ton of parking fun at my school and many other places.

[phatdoughnut]

hehehe deal, the SI line should work for you, or you can braise or have the prelude one custom fitted to your accord line.

New PS line --> $120 + shipping OEM GRRR, Im hoping I get a response from my junkyard search (online). I paid less then that for my DC header, whys it got to be soo complicated!?

[phatdoughnut]

did your h22 come with part of the line attached to the ps pump? cause you can just take it to an auto parts stor eand have it fitted on, cheaper all the way around.

[TalontedTSi]

yea actually it did come with the metal part but how long do I make it? how about the sensor fitting?

[phatdoughnut]

since you are replacing the rear crossmember, cant you just take the whole line off and just take it to a shop? and have them connect them with hydrulic connectors? i know my auto parts store does it...
