Looking at the catalogue, it seems that RHD short rack could be 896422065BX , as it was used by late S2 and also by RS2, and apparently could be found in various other models as well http://www.oemepc.com/tvn_result/search/tvn/896422065BX

So far I haven't heard about any V6 using anything but vacuum servo..

I did find that number listed for the sport suspension option so that would tie in

Must be due to clearance issues, as the hydro servo in LHD B4 was available only on 20vt. Interesting to know, though.

Rack bought, it'll be interesting to see what difference it makes.

Thanks again for the info.
