Eg rack and pinion question????
I would like to know if an Integra rack and pinion will fit my eg hatchback. I need to change it beacuse it has some play, and I heard the Integra has a closer turning ratio. I've owned a dc integra and it felt much tighter in corners then the eg(I could be wrong)Plz HLP!!!!

I plan on using a non-power steering rack and pinion because I dont need power steering and plus my car didn't come equiped with it. Does anyone know for sure if it will fit ??????

Re: (badboyr66)
A DC2 steering rack WILL bolt up to a Civic subframe.
All Civic/DC2 non-PS racks have a rubber mount that has a <U>flat surface</U> on the subframe side.
All Civic/DC2 PS racks have a rubber mount with a <U>round</U> surface.
I used an ITR PS rack (round mount) on my civic subframe (flat surface) by using a PS rack clamp, elongated the bolt holes, and using longer hardware. Worked great and had no issues with almost 10,000 mi on it.
