Not too sure what you mean...
Is a service - someone comes with all the kit and does it on site. In this case I used Tim SodablastUK.

Is it possible to offset the 'weight' by adding more assistance in the column unit? ...Originally Posted by drmikey

Bonnet looks well made, nice job.
What made you go that route instead of buying a ready made lighter weight CF bonnet?

Yes the amount of assistance on the column can be adjusted from min to max. You could be fancy and make a controller whereby amount of assistance if proportional to speed.

To be honest I'm not sure a CF bonnet would be lighter anyway. The OEM bonnet is very light as it is and most CF bonnets are just a superficial skin of carbon on top of much hearvier GRP

At last we've actually started adding bits rather than taking bits off!
The roll cage is well underway!

Check the issue of Octane (2 months ago?) where Harry Metcalf had electrical assistance added to his Countach. He took it to the suppliers factory in Holland but they have agents over here.
It'd be nothing like as sophisticated as the standard NSX one but it would solve the unfashionably slow steering of all NSX's.
Cheers
