You may want to look into a quaife quick ratio rack kit..

The Quaife does not fit the 96-00 civics.

Quite awhile back I was inquiring about the possibility of a steering quickener that would fit a Honda rack (they're all over the domestic world). Someone emailed me and said a company was preparing to start selling one, but I never heard anything else about it.

Even though all 94-01 integras have the same rack?

Not sure but ive heard mixed rumors that the 94-97 has a different ratio then the 98+..... i believe 16.0 and 16.1:1 ......... The variance in the ratio indicates that it would not be a noticeable difference. But after driving my buddies 96ls, it seemed mine was tighter...... (maybe other factors are involved).

It was documented by the owner of the car as well....... you may remember " Stegs "? He was the previous owner, and was quite a competitor in his class
