Does anyone know of any places that have pre reconditioned steering racks?

Mines needs an overhaul but getting one already done seems easier

tried just jap at kirrawee? I had southcoast suspensions put a new rack in mine.I think it may have come from just jap as they are only around the corner

I got mine re-conditioned about 3 months ago, no good :domokun:

for the money it cost I would have been better getting new or even a second hand working one.

You had your rack rebuilt and its still not good? care to explain what it feels like? I had my rack rebuilt and it still didnt feel right the day i drove it. Felt better but not the best. then went down hill over a couple of weeks until it got back to whrere it was before the rebuild.

just really crunchy, and there are still splinters of metal coming out when you bleed the p/s from the rack.

it also boils over alot again.. it stopped as soon as I got it rebuilt.. but then it came back again shortly after. I think the boiling is the pump and the metal splinters are the rack.

I can't remember the exact cost, but it was about 1000 to get the pump and rack done, including removing and replacing it... probably a bit more as i got it done in two stages and I remember the last bill was 1000 (which included somethign else aswell)

I haven't even been giving it a hard time.

actually.. f**kin hell, that shits me... i had a spare power steering rack at my mechanics now that i think about it.

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
