Help! Hicas Issue? Car Swerves At 110Km/h

[au55ie]

Hi all,

Hoping someone can shed some light on my car.

just finished a 900km highway run and my car has a nasty swerve at 105-110km/h.

going from 105-115km/h my R34 25GTT has a nasty swerve left- probably 1/8 turn on the steering wheel. slowing down from 115-105km/h it swerves back the other way.

under a 100km/h my steering wheel sits straight, over 115km/h is cocked about 15 Deg off centre to the right.

the car feels like its crab walking.

I can stop and shut down the car- wait 30 secs and no issue- wait another 15-30 mins and it comes back.

do i assume its the HICAS playing up?

front end alignment is good.

struts are good.

Scared the shit out of me the first time it happened as it was in the wet.

Any info/advice would be great.

Cheers

Matt

I cant offer any advice on how to diagnose or fix your problem.

I can tell you what i've done and what a lot of people on here have done, which is to remove the hicas system and fit a hicas lock bar to the rear.

Problem solvered.

If your not sure what it is, have a google around or search here and you'll find it.

The only problem you will have after its fitted is you will get the hicas light on your dash lit up all the time. Half hour to pull out your cluster and remove the bulb behind it. Problem solvered again.

Cheers mate, ive been looking at the hicas eliminator kit for around $350 and it seems the better option.

thanks for the reply
