So basically I bought an s2000 CR off auction. I found out a lot of the parts where swapped and I was wondering if theres a way to tell what kind of rack & pinion I have.
I bought a used off of a 2007 but then I realized the ratios are different.

The 2007's sticker says: S2NAE 04M S2A-A0
JL04-013184

The one on my 2008 cr is: S2NAE 06M S2A-A0
JL06-008711

I also know this is kinda off topic but my steering rack wont give power steering when I turn right, but left almost seems too easy. When the car is off and lifted off the ground they both turn the same amount. It has 24k miles so i don't think it could be wearing out.
What do you think the problem is?

 

S2NAE 53439-S2A-S01 is the correct CR front steering rack. Was this CR purchased through a Copart auction?

 

Yeah it was :/

 

Was this the car?

Yes, thats it. By the way sorry for the late response I was out of town over the weekend.

 

Has it been aligned? I think a really telling sign of diagnosing steering rack vs. alignment/suspension/drivetrain/wheel issue would be to try turning to each side while sitting still and while moving. If it requires the same effort to turn to each side when the car is stationary, I'd bet it is not the steering rack. If the effort to turn to either side differs while moving, you'll need to get an alignment and then start inspecting individual parts. Not a perfectly scientific approach but would be my initial diagnosis.
