I would think that it might be easier to change to the CR ration on an AP2 than go backwards to AP1.
I might be wrong.

Majestic Honda's website says they'll sell an MY03 steering rack for $757. I have no idea if any additional parts would be needed - the $223 pinion might be required.

If you have the money and time, go for it - I'm certain there are plenty of other owners who'd be interested in what it takes.

Try to find a wrecked AP1 in a junkyard and buy parts off of it.

Go to www.car-parts.com and do a search. I got a used steering rack for around $300 shipped to my door with a warrantee.
