    you cannot use the stock KE rack with the nissan crossmember, and why would you either. if your planning on using the KE/AE crossmember and mounting an SR20 into it then you can run ae86 susp + ae86 PS no worries... but you'll need an 86 PS rack, and then some lines going to the SR PS pump.

    dont redrill the LCA holes in the rack. this changes the pivot points between the LCA and Steering arm and introduces bump steer.

    im using nissan crossmember, S14 rack, S13 brakes, LCA's coilovers and i used the power steering set up. I have found its not super light once you have wide offset and decent rubber + lots of castor. its quite nice.

    i wasnt sure if i should use an s13 crossmember because its much cheaper than custom and the engine sits lower. just was sure about the steering rack etc....

    also i'm being fucked asround to get custom mounts done engine and box... i get the same line "next week" next week never comes

    i got a type x 180 cross member and rack and mounts 100. see how we go.

    also unsure about where the tie rods will sit as the rack and member are lower and i want to use stock ae86 sus . i dont really want to change the geometry

    if you dont want to change the ae86 then i dont recommend fitting the S13 crossmember... it wont work too well (i have tried it) same as running s13 susp with ae86 crossmember doesnt work too well.

    but when you run s13 crossmember and s13 susp... it works great
