UPDATE

well since nobody from here with pms or emails to eBay sellers, and for the fact that I'm guessing the rack is too small as the required size we need is pretty much the biggest you can get, and the s2000 rack is definitely too small, im going to push for this

Flaming River Motorsport Style

it allows us to use a custom manual rack for decently cheap, and then buy that which is fully customizable. There is a cheaper option with less features, but not sure how good it is. (Theres a reason why its $4,000 less)Street Performance

yeah its expensive, but when its going on a 3xx,xxx dollar car, 6 grand is like the price for floor mats lol.

I have the solid bar that goes through the motor unit, out of the car and separate in the garage.

In other words, I can give you mounting point to mounting point of the inner tie rod ends.

Thanks to Billman250, he gave me the dimension of 31 7/8 inches, end to end of the steering rack bar. And come to find out the power steering units we get from Woodward now are 31.5 inches so it looks like we are going to go ahead and buy a unit and controller to test out on our test mule. Also I got prices from Honda, surprisingly the cheapest was from the 08 CR at $810 for the rack and $630 for the controller compared to 971 and 789 for the AP2.

So we have the rack here, and man is it a biggin, working on fixing her up a bit, as it was a used one from ebay, and designing some mount adapters in NX. Looks like we can make it work with the suspension, inner tie rod to tie rod looks like 32.75 inches, and its pretty close to what we can use. Wiring is gonna be fun, but we think we have whats gonna be the hardest figured out.
