yes steering IS speed sensitive (is in a GTR anyway, i assume its the same across 32s)

and the signal comes from back of speedo guage

very strange setup, speedo is cable from gearbox to guage, then changed to electric from back of guage to whereever needed

Hope This Helps

anyone know where the wire that tells the rack to go into hi ppessure mode comes from

it much start at certin speed

when first did neo conversion steering very heavy

so put 12 v wire onto rack switch

works well at low speeds but doesint turn off at high speeds

very touchy to drive

There is a control unit in the boot (under the parcel shelf) for the HICAS, is this still plugged in? I think if it's not you get heavy steering all the time, also if you lose the signal from the speedo it will get heavy. I think what you've done is bypass the the control unit and feed a constant 12v to the rack all the time, it's obviously not going to vary itself.

cheers for the reply

where soes the wire come from

it must come out of the dash loom

yes i was only getting heavy power steer

witch it cool if u go fast everywhere but defently not turned off

turns out high pressue low pressure switch so

yes we applied 12 v constant to the high pressue low pressure switch

ime thinking it comes through the engin bay loom witch i now no longer have so it must plug in on the dash conector behind the kick panel

but witch wire is it

anyone got dash conector pinout maybee that would be a start

thanks in advance guys

how did you go mate? did the power steering become heavy right away, or come on after driving a couple mins

If you've put constant power onto the rack, of course it won't turn off at any speed..

ok, ill be nice now.

Wire colours are black, and black/yellow stripe. 2 pin connector going into engine harness 2, and another 2 pin connector same wire colours going onto the solenoid connector.

these 2 wires, black is grouped in the main engine harness connected to body ground, black/yellow goes to the body harness connector and other side of that connetor to the hicas module.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
