soon i will be doing the above conversion (m20) and have heard the power steering pipes are too short.

is it just a case of using the pipes from a 2.5, or is it more complex.

anyone who has done the conversion, what did you do, or any1 know?

Yea you need the 2 pipes, one from rack to resevoir, one from resevoir to pump. Also you will need the attaching bracket from pump to engine, not sure on the needing the 325 pump as I havent got hold of the bracket to try and fit my 318iS pump! HERO STEERING rules for drifting!

I can't really see how with just the belt not attached, the pipes are still going from rack to the resevoir to the pump.
