I havnt really had much trouble with my Hicas, one time cruizin on freeway 130km/ ish went to change lanes n felt like my ass went out lol i craped my pants lol i wasnt expecting that at all. Was going to get a lockbar but it hasnt bothered me since, next time i feel it... itl be gone! lol

Plus after cruizing for a while at constacnt speed my hicas dash light used to pop on, didnt do anythin bot it, and havnt seen it on ever since those couple of times.

funny that as in my old R32 GTS4 i used to own there was this one stretch of rd right near blakehurst where everytime I drove over one particular spot of rd the car would midly step sideways and correct itself very quickly.Very rarely did it anywhere else but always on this one spot...at 80kmh its not very confidence inspiring

thanks to those that slaged me yeah i was going fast but you all were not on the cruise and i didnt ask for you all to be nasty so thanks :glare:

love all of you that were helpful and gave me some tips on how to fix/evaluate the problem :(

thanks michael for sticking up for me :kiss:

i think what people are trying to say is, it might not have been ur HICAS that caused u to crash, so if u lock the HICAS dont expect it to never happen again. the rear coming out on a RWD turbo car when u put ur foot down to "power out of it" isnt unusual, are u 100% sure the rear just didnt lose traction?

not having a go, but u dont want it to happen again just because u assumed it was a HICAS issue and that it wouldnt happen again, and at 80k's ur lucky it wasnt a lot more serious.

thats ok if you cant poke fun at me who can you poke fun at and if its me your making fun of then your all leaving someone else alone lol thats the way i see it :) what can you do but laugh i have learnt a lesson anyway

fear the rear wheel steer, this looks like its turning more than 1 degree like they say it does

the hicas debate will never end, i always hear people saying you can get round corners faster with it, prob can on a couple of dvd's ive seen they reckon its faster for a average weekend racer to have hicas but if your a michael shoemaker i hear its faster if you have the lock bar.

i damn sure aint no shoemaker but mine came with it locked and i reckon i prefer it that way, least i know whats happening with my rear end

cost me big time on a trip to regency though. :)

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
