Quick rack. Yes/ No
Has anyone fitted the above to Blobeye Wrx ?
Was it a big improvement? Is it a worthwhile mod ? |
Have one on my spec c, very noticeable compared to my last normal jdm takes a bit getting used too but i like it, very little impute on the steering to put it into a corner.
|
Well with the winter now on way & predictions of heavy snowfall this year .
Driving around lock/lock might be just what you need :) |
I quite fancy a quick rack on my classic.Is there one available for the earlier models?
|
The one for the classic are getting harder to find,you can use a newage one with some converting,I think asperformance do parts to convert.
|
I've recently fitted an STI rack to my wrx, but not driven it yet.
the STI rack isn't as fast as the spec-c rack, but still an improvement in terms of speed (from memory, wrx is roughly 3 turns lock to lock, and the one I fitted was 2.4 or thereabouts). it's a pain in the rear to fit, at least with engine in, because of the power steering hoses. |
WRX 16:1
STi 15:1 Spec-C 13:1 WRX is 2.7 turns lock-2-lock IIRC ** I think that ALL JDM STi Newages are 13:1 also. |
All I have to do is find one.
|
Look on the American forums
You can mod a MY14 to fit Newage subframe & they are readily avail from dealers , |
Will a JDM sti 7 fit my Newage ?
Will it need any mods to fit ? |

Also note that early bug eye racks have a different link arm thread (m14 vs m16, but can't remember which way around), so tie rods are not interchangeable...
|
Ok so what rack do I need to look for ?
|
I think 2002 onwards will fit straight on.
the earlier bug eye rack also fits, but you'll need the same year tie rods too. |
