the kp60 rack is narrower than the ke70 rack, i had an ae86 front crossmember,lower arms, rack and struts on my 4age powered ke35 and the front wheels would scrub when turning tightly and it used to bump steer, there was too much neg camber too because the strut tops were too close. i changed it for a crossmember, rack, struts, antirollbar etc from a kp61 starlet and it worked perfectly.
the kp61 rack length between the inner ends was the same as the distance between the lower arm pivots on the starlet crossmember mabey toyota did it this way for shits and giggles or mabey there is a reason for it? if you stick an unshortened rack from a ke70 in to a ke35, with the tie rods shortened to suit, when you hit a bump in the road that wheel will toe in.
i only asked if anyone had come across a suitable rack as the rwd starlets are not available here for the raping of steering racks and other handy components. i did not say the lower arms had to be the same length as the tie rods.
@turbora28 thanks for the info on your conversion, when you say you narrowed the rack do you mean where the inner tie rod ends attach? and you say you moved the lower control arms out 25mm? sounds to me like you were trying to make the distance between the lower arm pivots the same as the distance between your inner tie rod ends.
