    will do, i'll keep you posted w/ pics.

    so far the one i am thinking of using is out of a 90 Civic DX HB. it has been overhauled/rebuilt already according to my brother. so all i gotta do is take it out and resplace mine.

    most of the time, yes. most other people don't care about the civic wagon.

    We all love our wagons here. :D

    Unfortunately i have no idea if the steering rack is the same as a hatch.. :(

    Your rack will work,but if you got a Si rack that'll be better.

    Those that find out about them...luv them.
    Those that saw gas prices go up want them.
    I've seen prices go up(with gas prices) on them(Wgn).
    Those that have them ...luv them.
    Those that sold them wish they didn't.
    It's that mystique of the EF series.
    The Wagon (EF series) ran for 9 years. :shock:

    why would the Si rack be better? does it have a better ratio?

    The 88-91 SI rack is a much better/ faster steering ratio than the other EF manual racks. I just swapped an SI rack in when I did my B16 swap and its great! (Never drove the EE with the stock power rack, but its much better than the DX CRX I was driving before)

    p.s. it is a bolt in deal...

    Thanks, Hankish. I've been watching that other thread closely.

    When you say it's a "direct bolt-in for the wagon", are you including that I've currently got a power rack? 'Cuz that would be farking awesome.

    Edit: Rats, wrong thread! Well, it still applies here, I guess...
