Has anyone figured out a solution to communicate with the BRZ canbus correctly to tell it engine speed ( or is it vehicle speed? ) so the electronic power steering works? I saw some magician did it on his LSv8 swap but he didnt go into detail at all.

Is keeping the EPS an option, any other ideas? Im not going to run a stand alone ecu of any sort, and not buying anything super expensive, trying to keep this on a budget.

If that doesnt work, has anyone tried the nissan S13, or S14 power steering rack? I could power that off the 2J power steering pump as a last resort.

Thanks in advance!
I love the power steering system on these cars.
Never having to need another power steering pump again makes me smile.
Just turn it on using one of the CANBUS solutions, there is a new thread for it.
I was happy to see my budget Arduino solution made the list.
