Whats the difference between hydraulic and electric steering?
>>14158365
one uses electricity and one uses hydraulic fluid
>>14158365
One uses hydraulics and the other uses electricity.
>>14158367
Or vice versa.
Wow that's a really high redline
>>14158365
is he planning to fly with that
>>14158374
It is fucking glorious.

who is this fluid druid?
>>14158388
oh but wait
>autotragic
fucking dropped
>>14158388
you know what OP posted is brand new RS right?
>>14158397
The Porsche DCT is fucking insane. The relentless acceleration in, for example, the turbo it allows...absolutely ridiculous.

I just decided to post the better one.
>>14158417
>better
TOP HAHA
>>14158421
Yes, better. Until you take a 991 GT3 (RS) to Ruf and have them fit a manual gearbox.
>>14158410
its automatic..
>>14158451
If you're obtuse, yes.
I'm not the greatest one to answer, but, since no one else has offered it:
Hydraulic steering has been around for a long time and uses hydraulic pressure to make steering easier. Electronic steering uses an electric motor to help you turn the steering rack and a computer to tell it how much.
There are advantages and disadvantages to both. Hydraulic steering lets you feel the road and tires better because the fluid will transfer the vibrations and jumping and whatever other motions the suspension and tires are feeling. Electronic steering doesn't give you that feedback, which makes you feel a lot more disconnected - and early systems were worse than they are now. The advantage of electronic steering is you aren't carrying around the hydraulic fluid and actuators which are heavier than the electronic assembly.
I've driven Porsches with both. The 991 is actually pretty good, they really did make it as good as it can be. The 997 before it really did have an extra edge in feeling the steering though, there is no doubt.

..I should add the hydraulic steering also requires a hydraulic pump, which needs to be powered off the engine...therefore there is parasitic loss.
>>14158451
Who cares?
>>14158500
That's not how it works at all. Your steering, unless in a steer-by-wire system which most cars do not have, is always connected directly to the steering rack or steering gear box. The power assistance acts in concert with your effort to turn the wheels, it does not replace it.
>>14158609
I didn't say it wasn't directly connected, I said:
>which makes you feel a lot more disconnected
>makes you feel
>feel
this isnt /o/ related
>>14158365
One is obviously safer.
>>14158500
>fluid will transfer the vibrations and jumping and whatever other motions the suspension and tires are feeling. Electronic steering doesn't give you that feedback
>>14158451
Go back to car throttle.
>>14158629
You didn't say it, but what else could you possibly mean by 'the fluid will transfer the vibrations'?
>>14158970
Oh yeah, you got me there. I'd just heard that before. I assumed because the hydraulic system is fixed regardless of conditions and the electric is variable/programmed that there is some 'reverberation' for lack of a better word through the attached system. The electric adjusts to make things lighter while the hydraulic is fixed.
But I'm apparently wrong. I tried. No one else was chiming in and figured I'd be challenged as soon as I did, so, hopefully OP gets a good response in the end.

The replies initially given were fine. One provides assistance with electricity, and the other is hydraulic. If he wants more than that, he should look at some engineering books.
