Summit Racing has fittings and hose. My NX had a bad power steering leak and I had visions of having to fix hard lines, but replacing all the rubber hoses this year fixed that. However, it now has a fuel leak in back when the system pressurizes. I expect new rubber hoses will fix that too, but we’ll see, hopefully this weekend.

Of course that was over a decade ago and I have no idea where I got the adapters from. Are you looking for the rack lines or the pump to rack hard line or both? I can look around and see what I have, but I usually stripped power steering first thing.

I am pretty sure I have a spare good PS pump, that came off the JDM engine that I put in my old G20 many years ago (when I installed that engine I used the then-new PS pump on the old engine), but I need to lay eyes on it to verify what I think it is.
