crashtestracer 11-05-2008 07:16 PM

so not to bring back a HORRIBLY old thread but I have been looking for just this for about a month now think that we could re open the poll and try to get it made? cause that would be amazing and definatly worth 500 or so not that i wouldnt prefer 300 but i will pay what i have to

CmR333 11-05-2008 07:28 PM

yeah same here

blu808 11-05-2008 07:57 PM

CmR333 11-05-2008 08:31 PM

GWB654 11-05-2008 09:03 PM

i am down for this! i was trying to look for one about two years ago but didn't see much on it! if you are going to do it i am in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mikez97 11-05-2008 09:28 PM

i want oneee!

crashtestracer 11-06-2008 09:29 AM

do you have any idea what you are going to price them? and are you considering making them with the built in solid bushings previously sugested?

R33GTS-T 11-06-2008 11:03 AM

i would be down for one as well, although i would prefer if it didn't have "built-in solid bushings"

i've driven cars on the street with solid steering rack bushings, not something i would like to use on a daily basis

blu808 11-06-2008 02:31 PM

Ok guys I got the green light. I need someone to donate an old rack that I can send out to the engineering department.

Also can you guys confirm that the mounting for the s chassis racks is all the same, z32 should also be the same.


Let me know

Nismoknightska-t 11-06-2008 04:28 PM

if its not a bitch to install and the price is right... im down

I'd give ya mine, but shipping's a biotch. Call in a few markers from the NorCal guys!

blu808 11-06-2008 05:57 PM

well were shipping it to ohio anyway.

Kuzumi 11-06-2008 06:11 PM

once this is a go i'm up for it.

CmR333 11-06-2008 07:06 PM

i would send you mine but uhh its far from a 240 rack lol

ManoNegra 11-06-2008 09:26 PM

I like the sound of it
but I'd like to try it out for at least a week
to see if it's something I'd want on a daily
yeah, unreasonable, I know.
an idea of what the price would be around?

GSXRJJordan 11-06-2008 11:15 PM

PM me the address and all that, I'll send them the rack out of my S13 (I'm not using it right now anyway) if I can get the first production one :) I might even write a sweet review too!

blu808 11-06-2008 11:29 PM

ok. they are all the same mounting right? same splines and threads too?

GSXRJJordan 11-07-2008 12:00 AM

I'll doublecheck, but I believe so. Got your PM, dope-sauce, I'll wait for the letter.

hotlavaflow 11-08-2008 05:28 AM

Glad to see this is making progress.

Looks like they're the same unit. Z32 racks are also interchangable, and the Z32 racks have quicker ratio, but that's only because the locks were moved inward.

On with the S13/S14 manual racks! Let me know where to send this biotch.

SoguRacing 11-08-2008 11:46 AM

so when is this coming through? i'm quite interested.

singlecamslam 11-08-2008 07:38 PM

looks like i'll hold off at buying a reman rack.

blu808 11-18-2008 09:56 PM

Ohh yea. thats what I was suppose to be doing yesterday.

GSXRJJordan 11-18-2008 10:50 PM

Haha - I still havent pulled my S13 rack 'cause I haven't heard from ya. Shoot me a PM or an email (my sn @ gmail) with the infooozzzzz.

punkrico 11-19-2008 01:04 AM

CmR333 11-19-2008 10:05 AM

wtf are you talking about? I run aluminum bushings on my rack and the steering column aluminum bushing too. No noise/harshness difference except that now it's SOLID and no slack. I run a 330mm steering wheel + reman HICAS rack 7.0 caster, power steering. Feels great, but could be better... hence my interest in this :)

So what's actually happening with this?

GSXRJJordan 11-22-2008 01:21 PM

Luke's got a lot going down with his shop at the moment - I'm waiting for him to get in touch with me about sending my rack in for engineering purposes. As soon as they have the measurements/etc they need, he'll get rolling on taking orders and makin' racks.

BoroDrifter 11-22-2008 01:52 PM

I need a new rack anyways. Count me in.
