Ryan Pug_306 is the kiddie for these Thumbs up ....last time he had 4-5 mk1 ones which is what I run Thumbs up

The Mk1 is the 2.4 lock to lock I believe & the most sought after one & I you can use all your old pipe work it just bolts on ...I wouldn't go myself for the Mk2 one even though I believe it's 2.6 lock to lock ...you have to use the pipe work that come with it ...just a little more messing about & it's not 2.4 of course ...but Mk2 / 2.6 is better than standard and still a great upgrade ....mk1 / 2.4 is unreal upgrade ....thumbsup
Both great upgrades

£120-£160 depending on condition seems to be the kind of prices

I have a Mk2 VTS rack i bought which i'm sending back to the company i bought it from after my steering rack debacle (long story posted elsewhere). If you're interested i will see if i can sell to you rather than sending back. It didn't get put on my car and is still mint.

I've got a Mk2 VTS (2.6 turn) rack in my car. Fantastic upgrade, love it, no downsides and it really suits the car. Fitting is easy enough if you get the hoses with the Mk2 rack.

I bought another off Ash with some other bits attached which i'm going to fit....I say some bits because i can never remember the names of the bits. I think wishbones or Track Rod ends. But something like that. Apparently to save myself some work.

Also I am rubbish with a spanner. Live in Glasgow (crap weather all the time). Do all the work on my sloped drive (i say all the work...i've done very little so far) Do it myself (with lots of swearing, banging my head on the hubs, and generally turning my nice original car into a shed along the way) so it takes ages. And when i say myself...usually means posting up here desperately asking someone for help on stuff like "which end is the right end of the spanner?"

I still have it...keep forgetting to hassle the guy to get it returned. PM me if you want photos of it etc.
