Morning all,

I've decided to kick the old hicas out of the car. I'm ordering a lock bar, should i take out the hicas gear aswell? does it weigh much?? and moving onto my main question. i've bought an Isotta steering wheel and need to buy the boss kit. i need a special boss kit to accomodate the hicas. as i'm getting rid of hicas do i still need that special boss kit??or will a standard one fit once gone. (i'm not quite sure of how the hicas one fits differently)

Cheers!

all the hicas gear from front solanoids to rear and lines weighs i dunno bought 25kg at the most i guess? maybe 20kg?

i've removed mine + lines, keep the rear computer, beucase otherwise it'll make your steering heavy, you can use skyline non-hicas or 180sx boss kits once the hicas has gone :D i got mine for $110NZD including boss kit and wheel, nismo look a like and it's fine for now

if you have a GTS4 I would be getting the correct steering angle sensor compatible boss kit. as I believe the AWD needs steering angle input to operate correctly.

I didnt even think of that. cheers for the input guys. I'll stick with the proper one that is made for my model.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
