Default Rack and pinion...what do I need?

Well, I just found out that this swap that i'm doing will require a ton (or maybe not a ton) but a few extras to run P/S. So I'm going to go with the non-P/S route.

What year rack/pinion do I need, axles etc...Does it matter what year? Anything extra or special do I need to look for when doing this? It'll be all happening in a 96 b18c1 into a 95 EJ.

TIA!

You just need a manual steering rack from a 92-95 civic.

Any 92-95 civic or 94-01 integra steering rack will work.

Personally, I removed my manual civic rack and installed a GSR power rack, and just connected the inlet and outlet with a hose so the fluid could move back and forth. I was a little unsure if I'd like it or not, but it's a little quicker than the manual rack, and is only slightly harder to turn.

Does anyone know how to properly loop the PS on a rack with variable assist? I have 4 lines running out of the valve body.
