r32,c33,and ceffy r all the same sub frames and steering racks bro..........its good pretty much all rollin gear etc the same

[Hella Flush]

s14 fits no mods

more lock

thats what im doin

if you need a rack and in adelaide i have a hicas cefiro and non hicas cefiro rack here complete

[jimi]

adz u bandit, chase down my old ceffy at sims or with nico and tax the s14 set-up off that. it was 'hella shic''

otherwise i have a near new s15 rak here which i got off gt and never ended up usin.

cash talks :~

im sure that its in a cube by now jizman

i dont have your number anymore... pm me keen on rackage

[jaik]

I had hicas but put in a S13 non hicas rack. The factory powersteering lines wont mate up so i ripped them all out and got custom ones made. Because I had a hicas pump i took the back off it an ripped out the vanes so the bitch wouldnt pump out the rear stage. I bunged it up too

whats the difference between hicas and non hicas racks? cos hydraulically, the front and rear racks are completely seperate

[Hella Flush]

hicas rack has additional lines plumbed in for the hicas at the rear (it shares the PS fluid)

non hicas ofcourse does not have these holes

i have a non hicas a31 rack if anyone wants it

[nytrda]

Hella Flush so your sayying that a s14 steering rack goes straight into a cefiro with out any mods :S I find this a little different as i didnt think that s13 an s14 steering racks where the same. Not that im a silvia person unless it has 4doors and drifts it aint worth having. Cant wait for next yrs super drift rds im guna burn the candle for the cefiro crew

[who's next]

as we are on the topic of power steering, i just wanted to know if the powersteering pump from the ca18det engine/s13 would work on the rb20e engine/a31, it looks the same but i just wanted to confirm this, could anyone help

thanks

wait... on my 32 the front rack is completely seperate to the hicas rack, there is no plumbing between them.

on my friends CA silvia there is a connection that is bolted to the rack, but no fluid is mixed here.

i found this out when i locked the hicas on both cars so both definitely had hicas.

hicas cars have a pump that has 2 outlets and then the resevoir has 2 inlets, so the front rack and the hicas rack are completely seperate all the time.

i dont understand how a non hicas rack can be different then, cos i've definitely never seen any connections on the rack for hicas. rack has 2 connection, 1 in, 1 out

ceffy hicas racks connect to the steering rack Salad got the system all pulled out of the white ceffy if you wanna have a look one day

"s14 fits no mods

more lock"

Adz drift battle says Nah to more lock yah to less lock than s13 ?

[salad]

are you talking about the connections near the uni joint? where the steering shaft goes in? cos this isnt actually hydraulically connected, its just bolted on there.

just checking, ive never done it on a31 but i assume its the same as s13 as the solenoid setup looks the same from the top

[1400r]

I think your right Salad looks like the hicas section can be removed

[salad]

sweet as, now i know what to do when i do my mates a31 hicas too

now take all the other useless lines and solenoids out and save yourself some dead weight!

[BDF1663]

sorry for my ignorance, but how do you tell if one's new engine swap (such as RB20DET) is that of HICAS or not?

[salad]

look for a steering rack in the back with steel pipes going to it...

and your power steering pump will have 2 outlets
