just like the new cars, but for Datsun 1200

Ok ok, what's going on here!!

Electric reduction gearbox assist? Looks pretty neat.
I'd be bit scared if the sensors that detect the steering shaft turning go closed circuit due to a fault. No questions asked, it would drive you into a tree on the side of the freeway at 60 mph.

looks sweet as

They are used in many new cars, they must be reliable?
Here's another view:

is that a 1200 steering column or something else to show the concept? (not familar with the pogo sticks...)

The top half past the uni joint would have to be modified a fair bit to have the gears mesh etc.

I personally wouldnt have a use for it. I mean its not like the steering isnt light enough anyways, but thats not to say its of no use.

What is th eplan for this DD?

It is a 1200 steering column/gearbox, cut in half and a u-joint put in the middle. Like a 510 steering u-joint. The power unit looks to be from a newer car. These modded 1200 gearboxes are now for sale in Japan.

bloody hell. The japs will mod anything. Gotta give em credit.

Do you have a website or link DD? I would be safe to assume that they want your left kidney for it?
