Steering racks

[funkyflynz]

Hey guys,

First up i dont currently own a Subaru, but i have had 3, Leg GT, Leg GTB and a Spec C V8

Im currently building a 1972 Valiant Charger, and im converting it to rack and pinion, i really like the steering in the subarus so ive decided to look at using a subaru rack, as luck has it the impreza racks are damn near the perfect length for my application and reducing bumpsteer.

So im after a WRX or STI rack, i do actually have a 1999 WRX rack (so i was told) for mocking up and its a great fit, i would however like to use a later model, i believe the WRX and STI used the same rack from 1996 thru to 2002, so i need to know if an 03 or later WRX/STI rack is the same length as the earlier model.

My 1999 rack is 650mm from the inner tierod pivot to inner tierod pivot. If anyone has any info on the later model rack it would be much appreciated.

Heres a photo of where the measurement is from
