Is anyone interested in getting a aluminum manual steering rack w/ quick ratio steering box? I think I'm going to get one for my circuit car, and wanted to see if anyone else is interested, so that we can get some sort of group buy price.
It's about $1000 + s & h + import duties for one person. Maybe cheaper the more we get.
It saves about 20lbs from a stock converted manual rack, and is made of billet aluminum, so the box rusting won't be a big issue.

It is made from billet, and is a manual rack. It is a lot smoother than the standard rack so although it will require more obvious effort than a P/S rack, it will be a lot more efficient due to the nature of the way the gears are made than converting a standard rack.
It will save you approximately 8.5kgs over the standard setup, and tidies the engine bay dramatically.
I have quickened up the rack from 3 turns lock to lock to 2.4 turns. This was to get the best compromise between fighting to get the lock on when catching a slide, and being too skittish arising to over compensation.
We are currently in the process of manufacturing a number of LHD units, and we have already had a number of enquiries about these.
The unit price is £690 + P&P + VAT
Many thanks again for the enquiry
