E=MC2 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 as i said in a topic subject, i am considering the purchase of LHD ZS rack, because as i found, ZS rack is much faster (1.9 lock to lock instead 3.5 as it is on MB/MC)subframe mounting should be the same acording to pictures, but i am would like to know will LHD MC2 piping fit straight to ZS rack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didjeridave Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 The standard rack pipe connectors on the RHD hondas are a 14mm & 16mm major diameter threads, both with 1.25mm pitch. Hope that helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didjeridave Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 ...thinking more about this, if they were different could you not just cut the piping & use some 8mm brass compression fittings to connect them together at some point? Something like this:http://www.lsengineers.co.uk/metric-bra ... e=googlepsYou'd be able to get similar connectors to go from one pipe diameter to another too.

E=MC2 Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Connectors would not be problem, it can be done. Bolt on or with small intervention, but it can be sorted outWhat i am interested in is that i don't know will be some fitment problems such as subframe mount points, steering column point, power steering pump...ZS rack is evolved civic rack, so i think that everything should be the same, but that is just my presumption Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philgor Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 IIRC, the pipe fitting on the rack's are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
