Installed:
- Spec C Quickrack 34110FE440 2.2 turns lock to lock
- Beatrush front performance bar
- Late model GD reinforced RSB mounts inc. Whiteline bushes
- GDB steering uni with hybrid SF5 upper spline clamp (the uni was pressed out)
Only issues is the steering is a bit heavy but I've sourced a 07 sti power steering pump which should help somewhat.

Hi,

Nice addition Waali.

Have you hit the track with the new setup?

MSR here in NSW modded my pump (i have a GC8 RA quickrack) to make the steering lighter again as i had the same issue with heavy steering

A full rebuild of the 04 STi pump and the mod was $200 or thereabouts....made a big difference

lol, I'm being hassled by a few people now to track it. The tune needs a tweak and the 200thou service needs to be done before I even start thinking about it.

I've pm'd msr about that over on rexnet. I'm going to try a 07 sti pump first and see how that goes as gda/gdb/spec-c all use the same part number pump.
