Has anyone done this conversion, is there much difference in the feel?
Any idea of how hard the racks are to change, and does anything else need to bre done

I should be able to tell you shortly.
I'm putting an ultra quick spec c rack into my car. The only twist is my car is a sti 5 type r.
When it's all back together I'll let you know how it feels. Whenever that is.

Get a smaller STi steering wheel
I thought about this but the cost of the steering rack / geometry (again!) was a bit off putting.
Not sure if it will make much difference...... When the odd pheasant jumps out in front of the car and I twitch the wheel to avoid the stupid bird buggering up the APS FMIC the car can change direction pretty quick !!!

I think Butty has sorted me a deal on a new Spec C steering wheel, when i saw your name on this thread i was expecting you to say you had one in that garage of yours
I have a quick rack on my 03 WRX and yes there is a difference.
API fitted mine for me. Not sure where they are sourced from, David would tell you all those details though.
I soon got used to it as my steering felt heavy at first, was weird, like i had no power steering, but now i dont even notice it, and at times i actually wonder now if i have a quick rack on the car at all! LOL.
I would like to drive a normal one to make sure.
