hey,
i was just wondering how much shorter power steering arms are than the normal non power steering arms?
i found some arms that are shorter than the ones i am running and wanted to know if they would have the same effect.
thanks brad

They're about an inch or so shorter.

not 100% sure what they were originally on, but are off my donour car which was an ex 4age ke20 racecar,
they only measured around 10mm shorter than my ae71 ones. i guess 10mm is beta then nothing, i had my fingers crossed that they may had of bn p/s arms.
it seems that p/s ones r 20-30mm shorter, ill bolt them in and c what happens.
thanks brad
