Default 98' ITR steering rack in ej-not fitting?

I'm putting a 98' itr steering rack in my 95' civic coupe(which used to be auto)and it doesn't look like it's going to fit.The lines look totally different.Anyone know if it will fit?
I 've searched and searched some more and everything i've read said it fits so....wtf?

the rack will fit, lines need some tweaking though. also, the dc2 rack has 2 lines, wheras the stock civic rack has 3. one needs to be eliminated.

well, i wasn't saying "do a search", but if you had legitamate questions, you should have posted. i would have also recommended swapping out the steering rack bushings, as those make a huge difference in feel.
