Chase Bays 99-05 Lexus Is300 1Jz/2Jz Power Steering Kit - No Cooler

The Chase Bays Power Steering Kit for the Lexus IS300 is expertly engineered to eliminate common factory issues such as power steering leaks, fluid spillover, and overheating. With a focus on improved aesthetics, durability, and a stealthy design, this kit is a complete upgrade featuring 100% A.N. hose and fitting replacements for the stock reservoir and hoses. The system seamlessly connects from the reservoir to the pump and rack, and includes an optional cooler for enhanced performance. Quality Components for Optimal Performance All hoses and hose ends are sourced from BMRS (Brown and Miller Racing), recognized as the best in the industry, with applications in NASCAR and Indy Car. Each fitting adapter is designed and manufactured by Chase Bays to ensure a chassis-specific fit for perfect, leak-free installations. This kit is compatible with various engine configurations, including the 1JZ-GTE, 2JZ-GTE, and the stock 2JZ-GE VVTi (when used with our Brake Booster Eliminator). Innovative Triple-Baffled Power Steering Reservoir At the heart of this kit is the over-engineered Triple-Baffled Power Steering Reservoir, designed to be aeration and spillover-proof. The intricate design features a multi-layer "chimney" structure that effectively manages fluid dynamics. The smaller fitting on the reservoir allows for fluid return from the rack at pressures up to 120 psi, which can lead to aeration if not properly controlled. After extensive research and development, the internal design minimizes turbulence, ensuring smooth operation. Testing has demonstrated the ability to reduce pressure from 120 psi to 12 psi in just two inches of fluid motion. Ventilation and Sealing Power steering systems are loop hydraulic systems that require effective venting. The cap features a unique baffle design that prevents fluid from escaping, a common issue seen in many factory and aftermarket reservoirs. The goal was to create a reservoir that stands out by achieving zero spillover—an objective that has been successfully met. Heatsink Cooler for Enhanced Performance For those pushing their vehicles to the limit, the optional inline heatsink cooler is a must-have. Constructed from durable aluminum and finished in sleek black anodization, this compact yet effective cooler has demonstrated a 20º F drop in temperature, ensuring optimal fluid performance during demanding conditions. High-Quality Hoses and Adapters The high-pressure rack-to-pump hose features -6AN stainless steel, Teflon PTFE lining, and black PVC coating, providing superior resistance to chafing against metal components. The -6AN rack-to-reservoir and -10AN reservoir-to-pump hoses are constructed from abrasion-resistant, black nylon sheathed, and stainless steel reinforced materials. All hoses are completed with premium black aluminum AN fittings. Applications Lexus IS300 with 1JZ-GTE (non-VVTi and VVTi) Lexus IS300 with 2JZ-GTE (non-VVTi and VVTi, requires Power Steering Pump swap to non-2JZ-GTE VVTi for safe operation) Lexus IS300 with 2JZ-GE VVTi Upgrade your Lexus IS300 with the Chase Bays Power Steering Kit for unparalleled performance, reliability, and style.
