Default Sti type r steering rack

I bought this last year off madhammer witht the intention of using it but am thinking I may just sell as the steering bushes etc have al been done now and for road use I can see the point in fitting it. I dont know what these are worth these days so for now I will £200 but will accept sensible offers.

its an easy one to check bud, just turn from lock to lock and count the turns. Unfortunately, what car its come off doesnt seem to mean much anymore.

if your expecting £200 for it, it'll should be 2.25 .... if its 2.75 then its a standard rack.

I have a wrx and clive told me that this would make a huge improvement and not to fit unless I was going on track so I would assume its 2.25 turns. It is still all packaged up from when he delievered it to me.

I doubt its a quick rack, unless its off a type R limited, it will be a bog standard fast rack.

I had a type r back in 2004 and the steering seemed shorter than on my uk2000 but that wasnt a limited

I checked it today and it seem to be the same as my wrx, 2.75 turns lock to lock.
