WTB:Steering Rack/Box for a GT4 Options

[BacerTune]

I’m searching for a LHD Steering Rack/Box for my ST205. In Europe De GT and the GT4 have a super strut undercarriage and the ST 1.8ltr a normal. So if anybody got one!

I need this to complete my rebuild from RHD to LHD GT4.

You can use 1.8 steering rack/box, just what you will need to make custom mounting brackets for it (not hard at all). And extend power steering lines a bit (get new one made from hight pressure hidraulick houses).

I know this for sure (100% sure) cuz i saw Converted GT4 and GT SSIII. Both had ST steering rack.

Hope this helps......

You will have most of the problems then converting Air conditioner and heater stuff..... cuz it is imposible to find a LHD air conditioner and heater... (i mean climate control unit with all the heaters under dash)

Im gonna be in the same boat pretty soon, will start to conver my SSIII.....

Thanx @ presure2; I also put a request in GT4OC

@doGGy:

I've got de 1.8 steering rack/box, but it doesn't fit on the subframe. The space between the mounting eyes is bigger on the GT and GT4, it also got stronger arms.
see photo: (Top RHD GT4 super strut below the ST1.8)



And I don't want to weld on the subframe, because It's not allowed in the Neterlands and the ST1.8 steering rack/box can have less force.

About the climate control it's no problem. You need to get everything of the front(dash,heater, ect). Ill mounted every thing of the LHD Celica under the dash and used some of the JDM RHD parts for the insides, like the wiring and the sensors. You can use both JDM RHD servo's the move the valves, only on de big opening valve of the heater you need to attach a bar to make the move right. Than you have the real working JDM climate control

Good luck with your conver, if you have any questions just ask!!
