Hey.

I need some information about a Hicas boss kit for an R32 GTS-T.

I have read through the forum and understand i need a Hicas boss kit, and that the code is something like 115, not the 110 model.

Howerever when my mate at autobarn called autotechnica to order one they said the 115 was for an 300zx, so now i am confused as to which product to order ??

If anyone has recently or in the past ordered a Hicas boss kit for thier 32, and had no troubles, can u please let me know where u ordered it form and what was the model code ?

Anyone with any information to help me out would be greatly apreciated .

Thanks

Mark.

the boss kit is the one on the steering column right? I'm pretty sure that autobarn should stock one for you - thats where i got mine from. Can't remember what brand it is, but i don't remember anything about there having to be a different kit for HICAS.

If its not for the steering column then plz disregard.

ok.

I got a boss kit, it is a hkb boss kit, it was ordered from autotechnica and the code 110. I asked autotechnica to make sure this was the correct boss kit and was a hicas boss kit and they assuered us it was, so i ordered it, took off the stock steering wheel, fitted the boss kit.

After driving for a while, youl never gues what hapened, YES the hicas light came on.

Now just wondering if this is because of thhe incorect boss kit, or could we have done something wrong during instalation such as accidently adjust the sensor ? if so dose anybody know what we can check and where it is.

ANd if it is the wrong kit, they will be hearing about it lol.

Thanks.

Probably an installation problem :D You need to make sure the wheel and boss are on perfectly straight otherwise HICAS thinks you a re driving in circles all the times and gives an error code.

Undo the wheel again, drive along about 20m in a straight line, then put the wheel back on. Should sort the problem.

Ok.

It was the wrong boss kit, which autotecnica constistanly claimed and still dose was the correct boss kit. it was an ON 110. This model was to be installed in the 2 and 8 oclock position, so when i installed this one the hicas sensor was moved.

I ordered a 115, which was to be instaleld in the 12 oclock 6 oclock position, Which is where the horn connection and hicas hole are on the stock wheel.

I have installed the new boss kit and now all is well, no hicas promblems (Crosses fingers).

And even after telling them about the stock wheel they sent out this kit but claimed it would be wrong.

So i hope this will help some ppl in the future as autotechnica didnt knwo what they were on about. Maybe it might fit some models of R32, but for a 1993 GTS-T with Hicas i needed the 115. If you thinkinhg of ordering a boss kit to save urself some hastle, take off the stck wheel and see what position the horn button and hicas hole are in.

On 110 - Installed at the 2 oclock 8 oclock posiiton.

On 115 - Installed at the 12 oclock 6 oclock position.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
