What are you trying to alter this for? as in what is the car doing that you are unhappy with?

It is for autocross. I want a quicker response. There must be some sore of gearset in the column/box. Quaife makes a quick ratio set for the rack & pinion civic and integra.

Are you still on stock dampers? or try a bit of toe out on the nose.

swapping out gear sets in the steering rack is just going to bump you to a class where you won't be competitive, assuming it can be done at all.

I have Thought to just go with a smaller steering wheel. That will do a little and stiffen the action a little.
