The manual rack:

I know, I followed these pics when putting it in the V8

So regarding your reasons for keeping power what made you go manual again?

Also just remembered, I have a set of heads here off my old engine..... If you felt like learning how to port heads?

They're yours if you want them

haha shhhh stop pointing out my indecision ^_^

Basically... I took the car for a drive around the block, and just didn't enjoy it. I became addicted to the manual rack in the VQ, I just can't live without it ^_^

I also SAW the power steering rack up close when I was removing the gearbox, and an irrational urge to rip it out there and then swept over me.

So I did.

I should be able to compensate for the slow ratio with cut/shut knuckles, and further compensate with a slightly smaller steering wheel

The only challenge will be finding a smaller wheel that I like. I HATE aftermarket wheels

It's a tempting thought for when I put together my "better" motor down the track. Problem is I don't have an air compressor + die grinder ^_^

Looking good like the front.

Well they're yours if you want them also you could get a steering wheel like this? they come in 320mm and 350mm and I think the 350mm one's come in leather or suede.
