manual rack and pinion?

Has anyone seen a 240sx with a manual rack and pinion? My custom exhaust manifold wont allow me to run a oem ps pump so I was thinking of swapping to a manual rack or using an electric ps pump. Anyone done a setup like this before?

Search for "Manual Rack Conversion"

You should find a pretty informative thread about de-powering the rack.

I'm sure it's for practical reasoning and he is running a large turbo...if this is true than having your turbo bang the hell out of your strut tower sounds like a bad deal.
