Are these specifically for the Mk1 or the Corolla?

PS why not the Mk2

[tonigmr2]

Specifically for the MK1, although I can get corolla for same price.

p.s. MK2, what's that?

[dex]

I was curious about the fitment as when I bought my quickrack they didn't do one for the Mk1 one so I had to make do with the Corolla rack and modify the knuckle joint. If only I had waited

Good price! What is the difference over the standard rack - how much 'quicker' is it?

[tonigmr2]

Ah well you should have waited! I've been made aware of a limited run of 25 only specifically for the RHD MK1 - you are right though they are based on the same tech drawings as the corolla.

Am checking 'quickness', but it is significant.

One of your other cars

See if they'll do a mk2 rack, i'm sure there's market.

I've been looking for one and at £140 you can count me in.

The quicker of the 2 you own.

I will ask him about MK2 racks if there is enough interest?

You actually expect that to change any time soon.

Been searching for a quick rack for a mk2 for ages,so would be great if this bears fruit [-o<

[Mark Edwards]

Not sure i could cope without the p/s but a quicker rack would be nice.

[dex]

I'd be interested in a Mk2 quick rack.

Disconnect the pump multiplug and try it without any assistance to see. TBH I only notice it when doing the 'car park shuffle'. A word of waring, don't run around with the pump disconnected for long periods of time though as apparently this how I wrecked my rack

A non PS rack will probably be easier to turn than a PS rack with the PS broken, if you see what I mean.

Then again, making it a quick rack will make it harder to turn..

And yes, running a non PS rack without PS will quickly kill it I believe.

Anyway - Mark - you big girls blouse!

If the ratios are the same correct as you're not pushing fluid around.

Are these built up, or just a rack and pinion kit?
