I want to install my Tomei Hicas lock kit this weekend but the instructions are in ne hon go...

Can someone please point me in the right direction to find english instructions or wiring diagram?

Thanks for your help!!

cool.

this is rhe procedure..

start the engine and WITHIN TEN SECONDS!! turn the steering wheel 1/2 turn LEFT hten RIGHT 5 times then depress the brake pedal 5 times.

this will put hicas into a diagnostic mode.(dont drive it)

it will take a few gos to get it. its hard to do all that whithin 10 seconds lol

when its inttalised the hicass light will flash. turn the wheel left and right asnd you can see the rear turn. use this procedure for inserting the shims into the rear steering rack(they wont fit otherwise)

as far as the electrics go ??????

Thankyou VERY MUCH! This should be in the DIY/FAQ section!

^I think copyright prohibits this.^

Can someone translate this for me? Please Phunky?

As the r33 plug looks nothing like the one shown on the PDF doc, Im having trouble choosing which wires to plug into.

I fitted the lock washers last night, I used a 12v source to move the rack (those screw are sooo tiny) and wheel aligned today, the light is on but it drives like a normal car with none of that tail waggle that I had to get used to when I first drove it, I prefer it like this and when/if I ever get the wiring colour codes, I will get rid of the light, I want it working as hicas also governs the power steer and hopefully it still comes on if there is a problem (touch wood).

Well after much searching I found this on a site.

I am guessing that the signal wires A & B are the wires on the rack that read the movement of the rack, without running out and looking, i know there are 3 wires on that connector, I can get an idea of which is which, I will have a look at it tommorrow and see what happens.

I did it! The pic is a wiring diag of the setup for a R33.

Thanks to all who helped with this Al, Predator, Shane, ColGTSX, Bl4cK32, Sav man and anyone else that I Pmed :rolleyes:

hey guys

i went with the above post picture

and i got a 96 r33 series 2

i went with the wire harness guide and installed it as pinned out on the harness but either way i look at my harness in the middle section those wires indicated arent on there

in the first picture i have showed the wire which i have spliced into

the second picture is looking at it from other side also indicating how i have wired it

cheers much help is need before my care is running as i dont wanna ruin anything

    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
    • Could be correct. Meter might be that far out. Compare against a known 5 ohm 1% resistor.
    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap.  (edit: I went out and did it right now, the line I had chosen did appear to have no vacuum on it, it used to go to the front of the intake, I've now completely blocked that one off at the bracket that holds several vacuum lines by the firewall.  I T'd into the vacuum line that goes from that bracket to the vacuum pump at the front of the car, but no change in the MAP readings).  Using the new vacuum line that has obvious vacuum on the hose, im still only getting readings between -6.0 and -5.2.  I'm wondering why the ECU was detecting -5.3 when nothing was connected to the MAP nipple and ECU MAP selected as the source. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
