Sport Steering Rack

[DFrosty]

I have a load more testing to do, but I will be talking to the firm in the states about getting some more done in due course.
I need to do some miles on it and also would like to test it on track.

I know of a couple of people who have already expressed an interest, but f anyone else is potentially interested please get in touch or start a provisional list on this thread, that will help to give me a rough idea to generate some costs.

I need to chase Kev regarding the PAS pump prototype too, but I know he has been super busy!

Cheers
Alex

Hello from the States
I'm interested to learn who it was that did this refurb for you...I'm doing a track car build and this would be much welcomed info. Please can you pm me with that info?

Thanks

Glad it works as you wanted, steering feedback is definitely something that could be improved. Would be interested to know more about a group buy or the ps pump mod in future.

Sounds like it was all worthwhile then, congrats!

So I took the car out for a test drive today, and I can tell you that with the protoype rack, that the steering is totally transformed.

There is significantly more weight to the steering and consequently you can be more precise and aggressive with the steering on corner entry without fear of over-inputting. There is a lovely increase in steering feel, you can actually feel the amount of grip available at the front wheels and the self-centrering effect is stronger. It is still no 911 but it now feels like a 21st century performance car

In terms of before and after feel of the car, this is easily the best modofication I have done to my coupe - 10/10

Seriously how can you not take it for a quick spin to test it out

haha, no tax, massive egg has appeared on front tyre sidewall, and more importantly currently got no brake fluid in it

James i'll pm you

Corsa C and Audi sport rack, just looking to replace the rubber bush that locates after the fire wall to a soild aluminum one.

Know which I mean?

Can you tell us more about the Sport rack, never seen one..

[mcandmar]

Rack now fitted. Few more jobs to do on the car, will be taxing it at the end of April. Looking forward to testing it

yeah i looked at that and though about a solid one, would make a difference i think.
I have a spare if you want to use it as a pattern?

Sounds like a plan

Cheers Kit, I'm sure it will work I have driven the car out of the garage and already there is a better feel.

You should have a feel of mine Alex

I'd love to

Did you end up using the Corsa E-column with the Audi Sport rack dude?

Really looking forward to hearing how this works out, good luck with it mate. I really hope all the effort you've put in is worth it.
