Hi guys

ive got a EU import bugeye sti which i assume doesnt have the sti quick rack steering the jdm cars come with.

2 questions really, would a change to the quick rack be easily noticable? what are its characteristics?

also are they different degrees of quick rack or are they all the same ? i.e. a jdm sti quick rack and an spec c or ra-r quick rack? botht he same? or one better than the other?

may be able to get hold of one but it does have a bit of a price to it.

Thanks

Eddy

 

I fitted one to my 2005 STI. Made a big difference IMO. Steering feels much sharper.
A very worth while modification.
All the JDM ones are the same.

 

cheers mate, so mine definately doesnt have it then.

also is the steering lighter than before you had it?

 

Its only the JDM cars that had the 'quick rack' fitted.

I wouldn't say its lighter, sharper and makes driving on track much easier.

 

ok cheers mate

 

Definitely a worthwhile modification mate. I got a JDM 13:1 rack fitted onto my uk STI hatch and it made a very noticeable difference. Weightier and much sharper. I loved it, but too bad the VDC wouldn't work with it, so i had to return to the uk rack (15:1)

 

VDC?

 

lol i pur a 24mm anti roll bar on and the handling difference is night and day! quick rack will be done at some point, but not yet, loving the hadling with the new bar,

 

I had a quick rack fitted by API years back. Would like to see what a 'normal' car feels like now, LOL

 

Yes VDC. Vehicle Dynamics Control.

 

Think your typing quicker than you can mate.
