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.

get them to look it up in the book... disregard the number u got somewhere else.

if that fails go to repco... mine came in 2 hours from another shop cause the one i went to didnt have it.

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.

Pz.

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
