Why should someone sell their beloved bus and move to something more modern When upgrades can be made to help out with problems that arise because of medical issues or old age? You don’t move house because you struggle on the stairs you fit a stair lift first.
The geezer lives in creepy Crawley I’ve bought things from him in the past and seen the system first hand to be fair it looks a bit cumbersome, he knows a geezer down in Hove who will fit it for £400, I’ve seen @Gingerbus litesteer and between the 2 the lite steer is by far the better system
My Litesteer was fitted by Litesteer themselves and I can only say that Neil, who designed and fabricates it, really knows his stuff and is a proper engineer. They’re based tucked away in East Sussex. Mine just has a speedo cable coupling for speed assistance moderation. It is a few years old now so he’s likely made improvements, but I’m happy with it. At the time he was working on a rack-based system, don’t know if that lead anywhere.
I happen to have a spare Subaru WRX with 2.0 turbo and around 300bhp sitting around doing nothing. I need to get around to flogging it since the body needs a lot of welding. It would make your bus scamper along quite nippily.
That’s the sensible option I wouldn’t all of a sudden want full assist coming on whilst changing lanes on the motorway
Unfortunately the turbocharged version isn’t as straight forward a swap as the naturally aspirated version. It would be loads of fun though.
Yeah so I ‘ve heard . Also the turbos get rather warm, which I imagine would be even more of a problem back in the noisy cupboard!
[QUOTE="Soggz, post: 1997189, member: 5798" ] It’s then not what it’s supposed to be. [/QUOTE] Interesting perspective. I suppose a similar view could be taken on 19th C terraced house with rotten wooden sash windows, quarry tiled floor, open fire as sole source of heating, lead water mains and outside tin bath and lavvy ? Still live in one of those but got Litesteer on my van
