Anyone!! When installing a momo wheel, what position should the steering sensor be in when installing the Boss? In the standard wheel, the position is at 6.00 o'clock. If the sensor is placed at 2.00 o'clock, will it stuff up the sensor position and bring up the HICAS light?

I need help!:D

Hey i had the exact same problem

I just moved it to suit... i havent noticed any problems, everything seems to work fine.

good luck

Sorry to bring up such an old thread, but I will be installing my new wheel on the weekend and want to know all the things I should know before then...

What do you mean moved to suit? did you just move it, test drive and move to a different position until the HICAS light stopped comming on?

Cheers guys....

Hi guys!

No one seems to have replied to the top post?????

I know this is an oldy but I have installed a momo wheel with a nismo boss kit and I have the same problem. After driving the car for 10 min the Hicas light comes on. There is no change in how the car steers. Can someone PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I would liek to take the car to the track soon but feel unsafe! Is there a certain way to point the boss kit before fitting??

Thanks in advance.

On a R32 GT-R the HICAS "sensor" prongs are at about 1 and 7 o'clock. If you have the OEM steering wheel, you can align the two dots (one on the steering wheel, one on the shaft) to get the sensor prongs in the right place.

You will need a HICAS-enabled boss kit. If you boss kit forces you to move the prongs from 1 and 7 to some other configuration it is the wrong boss.

      My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.

      Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway

      Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.

      I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
