No power steering? Can it be done?
I drove a 95 300Z w/o power steering and I liked it.
Can I disconnect and remove my p/s w/o harming my car?
Will it do damage to the ball joints and/or tie rods by not having p/s?
I know parrell parking will be a pain, but my driving is all freeway anyway.
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

Why not ask the owner of the car you drove.
Is your car a tt or an N/A?
The suspension shouldn't suffer any more for the loss of the power steering. You'll also save some weight if you end up removing everything associated with it. Naturally, steering will be heavier and more difficult. If you can deal with that you should be fine. If you have an early model tt though, removing the power steering will also affect the HICAS system since it's also hydraulically driven in conjunction with the power steering system.
