Glad to see your build rolling again, Jeff.

Still working on mine...

We are going to have some for sale in a month or so if you don't get to yours

Do you have an idea on what price would be?

Not yet. We should have that sorted out within a few weeks. Our goal is to have them at Canby. So 10 weeks latest. I started messing with the 300zx stuff. farther down the rabbit hole! haha

Doubt it'll fit the F20C

It will if you modify the pan

There isn't much pan to modify.

Seems like a bit of pan to me.

That is a lot of orange RTV.

Have you guys had a chance to measure real life bump steer yet?

haha Yeah that is a lot of RTV! Kinda funny all I use is Honda bond, I find a pic of a honda and its using orange RTV haha.

I tried to do bump at my brothers work but his alignment rack was being dumb. So I don't trust my readings. Even though they looked decent. We plan on doing the bump test this week. I've just been procrastinating on taking my car apart again. I need to get to work on it though, got a race the 15th!

There really isn't much pan, especially at the rear.

.. Any chance this rack/pinion will work with a rear sump oil pan?

What he asked♤....I would be very interested if this worked with a rear sump. I'm going to be in need of a solution in the near future....

[icehouse]

Nope it's front sump only. The good news is the late style 510 pan cleared with slightly tapping in one corner on Sam's goon if you want to keep it L series. We will have some ready buy Canby.

BOOOOOO, I have the comp pan. There is no room between it and the cross-member.

Cant wait to see these available. Wish I could make Canby to see them in person.

Yeah I know a rear sump version would have been cool but I'm never ever ever going to run an L series car and Sam has one so he understands my reasoning. Since neither of us want to invest the time we aren't going to move forward with it. Really besides already having a bad ass pan there are no reasons that make front sump better or worse than rear sump.
