    Quick Rack

    Can you get a quick rack for these? I saw a place (brt motorsport I think) made a rack and pinion for the mk2 but I think you have to change from hydraulic to electric? Did the cup racer or R3 have a quick rack? Is the 200 cup racks 7.5% very noticeable? Is it a big job to change?
