yes, a standard 1.2 16v epas rack will go on a manual steering column, direct fit. | |

yeah should be ok when moving, just turning/parking could be difficult. | |

I noticed above you were saying that you can fit a quick-rack with EPS coloumn. Well I Have a 2000 Corsa GLS with EPS steering and the ratio is approx 2.5 turns as standard, so not much point in a quickrack if it has the same ratio- just use the std EPS rack... :boggle: | |

I put one in my nova a few months ago, cost me £89 delivered from quailfe, it's gone from 4 to a 2.5 lock to lock turn rate, but below abotu 20mph the steering get quite heavy and dry steering is a mission, but you just eat road in it now, makes it much better, esp for a fast car too, I found I was having to turn the wheel too much and that was slowing me down, quickrack has transfromed it now. Esp good fun in the wet to make the back step out cause I can react faster can hoon around more now :D | |

yeh you can but i wouldnt want to try it myself you can get a new pinion bit of the rack for about £90 but you may aswell just buy the thing already done for you as thats only about £125 | |

a power steering rack thats not connected will result in very heavy steering. | |

always wondered if the power steering rack was faster? you could use that without a pump if it worked should be sharper? | |
