leave that rack in, it will work fine. you can wire up the speed sensitive steering to work with the c20let as well.

yes, I did the conversion on mine, used an epas rack with a mechanical pas steering column. got one spare if you need it?

if you do keep the epas, then its simple to keep. just need to connect up 1 wire to get the speed sensitive steering working.

just leave all the epas in, do the engine conversion and the epas will work fine, it has its own ecu so no need to touch anything on the epas.

as I said above, keep the rack and use a manual pas column. I have a spare one if you want it.
