It was unique, but it was made in bad taste.

its difficult to put a rack system under a 3rd gen without spending about a grand. the 4th gen unit will work with fabrication, but you will not gain anything.
look into a racecraft fabricated spindle. you will need the version with shortened steering arms. a stock spindle WILL not work for a rack and pinion setup. even in a drag car, a school bus will be able to turn circles around you.
stock tie rod arms are 3" too long from center of ball joiint to center of tie rod bolt hole.

3rd gens handle better because they weigh less and have stiffer rear spring rates 
4th gens front end are improved hence no wonderbar for us, rears are the same except for the spring rate.

I love how some of you are talking about swapping body panels. The OP clearly said suspension in the ONE SENTENCE you had to read to find out what he's asking.
I'd say it's probably a waste of time and just go with ugraded parts that are made for the 4th gen.
