Need Help with Steering Rack on 02 WRX
Hello- I have a 02 WRX with 80,000 ,iles on the clock and I recently developed a clunk in the steering that seems to be coming from the Rack where the input shaft goes into the rack. I have searched but found very few "problem" rack threads.
My question is this....Do I have any options other then a remaned WRX Rack or a "Rally rack"?
I have head that a 04STI rack will bolt in but there seems to be some confusion as towether it is a quicker or better part.
Any info is appreciated
Thanks
Scott

Thanks for the reply....I spent about an hour under the car with a buddy turning the wheel back and fourth and there is a definate clunk during the transition left to right in the ring and pinion gears. I don't feel much slop but the noise seemed to get louder and more pronounced after a recent track day.
When you say the 04 STi is not too tough of a swap, does that mean it is not a bolt in affair? How much modification is required?
Does anyone have a used rack for sale? WRX or 04 STi
Thanks
