I looked at doing this conversion a long time ago. What i found was [heresay] apparently Hadfield does a TE cortina power steer rack conversion. I believe this involves 5-7 hrs labour modifying the torana crossmember to accept the cortina rack. I hear commodore tie rod ends are used.? Alternatively, i also heard that with modifications to the torana steering shaft, chev pwr steer assembly will also fit. Personally i reckon it's all bullshit & use a UC crossmember & rack.

Go to the Suspension Forum and you will see where we are up to in the research of the WRX rack.
