Hi Skyliner's ... 

I have a question, maybe you can help me out here... ? 

I used to be A authorised Nissan workshop and had Fast at the time, but I cant seem to get fast working with Win. 10. Also we are located in Denmark so we have the european disc for Fast. Anyway... 

I have this R32 / chassis nr: BNR32-013497 from 12/1990 , an "early" model. 

It is imported from Malaysia, and came with a nissan GTR steering wheel - I noticed when driving for some time 20 minutes or so, that the steering jumped - no Hicas light came on - but the rear wheel turned slightly when it was supposed to be straight. 

checked the Hicas with a Nissan Consult II tester - No faults but read 153 degres to the left on steering angel sensor when the steering wheel was straight,

I took the steering wheel off, and yes it was the new type with the holes at 12 & 6. 

when I lign the steering angel sensor up with the middle point of the neutral signal it of course lines up at 1 & 6 o'clock. 

So I have the "early" type of steering angel sensor and the new type steering wheel...

I have looked at some parts catalog pages, and seemed to have found that the early steering angel sensor should 

be part number: 28475-01U00 or alternative number: B8475-01U00. (there are no number readable on the sensor equipped)

The Question is I think I have found the later version of steering angel sensor equipped from 09/1991 -  models 

wich should have the number 28475-01U11 or alternative number:  B8475-01U11. 

Do you know if this number are for an sensor with alignment 12/6 o'clock and does it fit on the car with the early version´s ?

Cause Nissan europe cant confirm this for me.

If I could buy the new type sensor that fits the steering wheel, then I can get the Hicas working with the steering wheel at the right position, right now I drive around with the steering wheel turned 153 degrees and the Hicas works superb.   

Hope you have the answer for this - best regards Lars.
