They're both the same I believe. Buy the HCR32 one (first link), that way, if there are any issues, you can't be told you "bought the wrong item".

So AWD and RWD are the same in Hicas design?

yeaow! $$$$ Neither do away with the outer ball joints.

So its no better than a cheap ass lock bar

Driftworks

No more ball joint

Keep in mind they are selling chinese crap, so only get what you need from them.

My Driftworks radius rod is stuffed after 6 months of street driving, they dont want to know about it.

Their customer service is REAL bad, i got wrong brakelines, 4 months to sort it out.

So.... Good luck

And just jap have a handy little fitting for looping the hicas lines

Are there different types? I only have a single black bar that sits in the middle of the HICAS system underneath my car..

These look very different..

Mine still looks stock on both ends, while these in OP's link look nice, black and shiny.

The HICAS bars are a "lock". Just replace the actuator with something that doesn't actuate.

The delete kits are actually a "delete". You can do what the hell you want with the actuator (leave it, bin it) and the new parts you buy replace the old HICAS tie rods. The clever ones also replace the tie rod ends (by putting bushes into the steering arm holes), just like a non-HICAS rear end (which is still the bestest way to do it).

So your saying mine would just be the most basic one you can get?

Don't suppose you know who sells the ones with the bushes.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
