There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

I was looking at getting one for the Lada before we sold it. There is a LHD setup available in Russia.


I have bought an electric power steering pump from an Astra with the plan of playing with it:

G'day
I have heard of the of the Cortina being used, however as far as I know it was only an option in the six cylinder versions and good racks are sought after by Cortina owners.

Good evening,

Yes, and it works very well. I am interested to see if the Astra electric pump will run it.

You can even take measurements if you want.
Lustful looks will cost though.
