Yeh so anyway, after driving about 30 seconds - 5 minutes my steering goes heavy then some minutes later HICAS light comes on. I think its fuel related (not the actual fuel but something near the tank perhaps) as it happens randomly and if it fixes itself temporarily its when i refuel to like half a tank. It was also temporarily fixed when i installed a new pump. Any way im assuming there won't be many suggestions so i was just wondering if any 1 can help me access the HICAS diag on a 32 gts-t

The guide i read said turn the wheel about 40degree to left and right 5 times (so left 5 times right 5 times? or 5 in total?) then tap the brake 5 times and then tap it once more (umm.. So i tap it 5 times, leave it a sec then tap again or do i just tap it 6 times) then move forward for 10 meters at a pace under 5km/h

Any way so any help would be cool, thx

um... not sure. But if you have an aftermarket steering wheel without the steering angle sensor, then that could explain why you can't enter diagnostic mode. It would also explain the light coming on, but not the heavy steering.

yeh, it has the aftermarket wheel kit and stuff. Sucks that you cant enter HICAS diagnostic from a easier technique. I mean honestly -_- turn steering wheel left and right 5 times, tap the brakes, drive forward slowly? Sounds like Something out of a Fairy tale, Zzz. Guessing ill have to just splurge and buy one of those $150 locking bars/kits and get rid of hicas forever. Hope they dont cost much to install

Thx

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!

      Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.

      https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
