Is the gtv rack any better than the stock 86 manual rack?

Its quicker lock to lock. A quick google will tell you all the differences

All manual racks (except aftermarket quick racks) use the same pinion (6 teeth) and gear ratio. (About 43.3mm rack movement per turn). All rack housings (at least the manuals) are of the same width, 400mm +-1mm.

AE86/AE85 with power steer
rack width: 530mm?
stroke: 130mm
turns: 3

AE86/AE85 with manual steer
rack width: 552mm
stroke: 152mm
turns: 3.5

AE86 GTV manual
rack width: 530mm
stroke: 130mm
turns: 3

The GTV has the same steering rack ratio, but the resulting steering is quicker only due to the shorter power steering knuckles. Due to the sharper angle the PS knuckles would give, the GTV rack stroke is limited. Both the regular manual cars and the GTV would have similar maximum steering angle.

KE70/AE71 some* manual
rack width: 545mm
stroke: 144mm
turns: 3.3

*The KE70 in Australia shares the same rack housing as the AE86 (400mm wide) and the same pinion and gear ratio, but the rack itself is not as long. Some KE70's in other countrys use the same rack as the AE86.

To achive the sharpest steering angle with the above parts, we use the longer 152mm steering rack (not the GTV one), combined with the PS/GTV knuckles. At this point, the tyre may start to rub on the inner body. To achive even greater steering angle (with either **longer rack, special rack ends, slip on spacers or screw on spacers) you also need longer lower control arms.

There is a thread on here that lists all the differences between the racks, your right about lots of conflicting info about though. What I pasted was the conclusion of the thread. Agreed for reasonable price for a good condition rack with the extras
