Is it possible to remove the hicas ecu, and keep the power steering?

Currently i have everything standard, but i need to clear the parcel shelf so was hoping to be able to chop all the hicas components including the ecu and wiring. I'm competent enough to divert them to something/somewhere else if neccessary, whoever i really want to do away with it all together.

Getting a full kit for the hicas, similar to the bycas system

Going to remove the back part of the pump and loop the holes up

As above, i hate the heavy steering so would like it back to normal after the work is complete.

The more removed, the better.

Is it just easier to lock the hicas up, scrap everything and get a power steering pump etc off of a diferent car which isnt speed sensitive?

Help needed!

Thanks in advance

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
