Hi Guys

if anybody out there has an S13/S14 ect steering rack I would be really grateful if you could post some measurements and photo's

Or maybe if i could shoot around and take a few measurements and photo's myself

Specifically I am looking for

Lock to Lock
Overall Body Length
Length Between Rack End's
Total Travel

I have a suspicion that the S13 rack will bolt into a Z31 as it uses the same mounting bushings. From my research an S13 has a 3.1 turn lock to lock. I have also heard a Rumor that a Z32 rack can work in a S chassis with a 2.6 or 2.8 turns lock to lock.

FYI a Z31 has 3.6 or 3.7 turns lock to lock.

I fitting a fast ratio rack in my E30 BMW and that thing loved it.

Would it be the same as an A31?
I have an A31 sitting in the back yard at mums. It still has (Whats left of) the motor in it though.

I have an S14 and S12 one I can measure up if you wish?


They both have the same mounting positions.

That would be awesome if you can throw a tape measure over the S14 Rack :D
