a quaife qwkriack is about that. It takes abotu 3hours to do the rack swap at a leisurely pace, engine remains in.
the difference is amazing, transforms the car completely, only con is at low speeds, but 10mph the steering is heavier, but how often do you go at 10mph??

The quickrack is a 2.4 ration rack - no?
Just for your info mine is a 1.2 16V EPS rack and that has approx 2.5 turns lock-to-lock so its pretty nippy as standard.

TAS do them for the corsa if i remember rightly it costs about £100 ive got one on my car and its great i love it. mine is also a 2 litre and it is hard to turn the wheel when trying to park but u get over it and its worth it for the way it helps when cornering
