I am after a Power steering box from a Rx5 / Mazda 121.

Any Ideas where to get one from?

Unless you could adapt one from a later model rx7? or possibly use the whole rack from a 7. These are rare enough in places like oz(have you looked on ausrotary?) But sorry I havent even seen an rx5 in the uk or ehard of one. Mybe ask Carl from Hayward rotary as he seems to be very clued in on the old skool scene.
  cheers and good luck. I think rx5\'s are great cars.

My Rx2 has one fitted, (Works pretty well),
The Japs have power steering fitted to their Gen 1 RX7s, But I dont think any RX7s in the UK had the power box.
Also some 929/cosmos had them as well.
You just cant find them when you want them.
