As for the r32 rack, definitely quickens the steering. The swap really isn't very hard if you are already dropping the subframe for whatever reason.
Pros: quickens steering, easy swap

Instead I installed an aftermarket 'rebuilt' 4 bolt unit. Came with new bellows boots and inner tie rods, was still a bit pricey but saved something like $300 - 500 vs buying a rack & harness from my dealer.
Pros: saved money, new parts
Cons: bit pricey

My VDub has been good and bad. Lots of expensive components I had to replace. Steering rack
Pros: runs amazingly, nice fast
Cons: expensive components, pain to work
I went to pick up my car from the dealership after a steering rack failure that occurred at highway speeds. The dealership confirmed they have been replacing more and more steering racks, especially recently. The steering rack is failing at the worm gear, and this part has been revised several times. I've never had a warrantied part fail in a way that tried to throw me into a concrete barrier at highway speeds. I don't feel safe putting my family in this car. After signing paperwork, I realized the steering was still messed up; the steering wheel wasn't returning to center, almost like there wasn't enough power steering pressure. The car never left the dealership.
Cons: steering rack failure, unsafe at highway speeds, steering wheel not returning, multiple revisions st
Vehicle:
Mazda
