Default Quicker steering ratio for Accord?

Is there a quicker steering setup from another Honda that will swap into a 4th Gen Accord ? I love the way it handles on long sweeping turns but I would like to turn the steering wheel a bit less in the tight twisty stuff. I won't change my '91 but I'd like to make a change to the '92 since I'll be yanking the front end apart anyway.

The 03 JDM S2000 will be the first car in the world with automatically variable ratio stearing. Good luck buying that system for a reasonable price and then adapting it to work on the Accord.

no one, and i mean no one makes a quick manual rack for the Accord/Lude.. and its a damn shame. They're ALL OVER THE PLACE in the domestic market... I have asked Flaming River (guys who made the rack for my mustang) about it and they said in not so many words: "haha"

the best thing you can really do is tighten up the suspension and use more throttle/brake steer, thats all I really have to do to get the car to move without a lot of hand input

Hehe..get a GM suv, rear wheels steering.
I have a Legend 90 the steering wheel is so light, i can turn with one thumb alone
but my accord 02 is kinda heavy, it's okay now after i got use to it.
