never been able to get a usable answer. can a ap2 ratio be installed into an ap2 a la CR? if so how much would it cost?

 

que?

If you mean an AP1 steering ratio into an AP2; don't quote me but I seem to remember from the CR thread in the R&C forum that it would be a PITA to do.

 

AP2s have two steering ratios, 04-07 and 08+ (same as all AP1s). Honda stated what the exact changes were, but to change over, it would mean a lot of digging.

Keep in mind the steering ratios were dialed into the suspension setting of the cars, so it works as part of a system. You're talking about 2.4 vs 2.6 turns lock to lock, bot a big difference.

 

only the CR in 08 has the tighter ratio. regular s2k has 14.8 ratio.

i just remember the ap1 steer as feeling more telepathic than the ap2

 

I thought the CR had the same ratio as the AP1 - pretty certain of that.

 

not that i enjoy correcting you, but i have the brochure, but you can check the web site specs. only tighter ratio for CR.

thanks for your help

 

you should enjoy it

I guess the sources that said here that it was the same as the AP1 were wrong.

 

My take on this discussion is that:
dyhppy is correcting you, alejo, on the fact that the AP2 '08s have this tighter ratio--and they don't. But what you keep saying alejo--that the ratio is the same on the CR as was on the AP1--is correct.

Steering Ratio on CR = AP1
Streering Ratio on AP2 (excluding CR) is independent ('04-'08)

 

You are correct alejo, the CR uses the Ap1's steering rack.

 

well, I'm gonna take some joy in that then
