sikky PS rack bushings? Better Feedback?
Mazda FD RX7 Steering Rack BushingSteering
Looking into the various options to improve the feedback of the poor FD power steering. Has anyone tried these, and do they work as described?

I didn't understand either. It isn't obvious until you read the instructions:

This solid bushing is definitely a huge upgrade over the worn out OEM bushing! Plus it's one of the most cost effective ways to help improve your steering response and feel. Let me know if I can help with any questions or get an order going for you.

Hey sikky while on the subject of steering feel is there anything you could come up with to lower the amount of assist without de-powering the rack? Would a banjo bolt with a smaller orifice or some sort of flow restrictor work, or some other way to keep power steering but not have that loose over assisted feel?

The only suggestion I'd have would be either a restrictor fitting or something like that adjustable power steering valve. You'll need a new line to mate up to it, unless the fitting comes with one as a kit, but other than that it's pretty strait forward. We don't have anything to offer unfortunately but I know there are some companies out there who offer what you'd need.
Let me know if I can help with anything else guys.
