I just wanted to post this separately. I've been struggling with the steering rack spacers as doing it like GTM makes it so one of the downpipe bolts wouldn't fit due to the tiny clearance left.

I've discovered that Fast Intention's kit also uses rack spacers, but they are at an angle so there's more clearance for the turbos. Obviously they aren't willing to just give me these spacers so i have to figure it out for myself.

The problem is, the rack doesn't like being angled at all. (It either going on straight or angled the wrong way)

I could technically finish using the regular flat spacers but then i would have one missing bolt on the driver downpipe and i don't like doing things halfassed.

Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks guys.
