hicas prob

[Adam_rex]

sorry if this is a repost i couldnt find anything on it here in my short time looking. but my hicas seems to be not working as it should. i have seen it active once and i have owned the car 3 weeks now. its a 1992 240sx hatch se. the hicas light has only turned on once since i have owned it. any suggestions on what could be wrong?

for you my good buddy

I'll give it to ya for $12.00 since ur such a pal.

If you might have wanted hicas, get it checked out and if it is deffective weigh the options of how much it would cost to fix and how much the eliminator kit is...........

www.splparts.com

goto s13, suspension, rear multilink option, and it is about 80% down the page, comming soon they will have a new product that looks even better....

$12.00 swizzeet!!!

Since your such a good buddy we'll need to third party it though.


I belive Kuah is redesigning his Toe Links and the Hicas kit... since no sane engineer orignally plans for what drifters do to their car, when the rear is too low the Toe link will bind on the rear subframe bushings and eventually break. both Kuah's and Alex P.'s stuff has done it.

If the light doesn't come on, how do you know when it engages?

[Adam_rex]

well im not sure if hicas is really a good thing or not. and only at high speeds? and i havent checked fuses and other crap yet.

[240SXSlideStar]

It's like over 50mph or something.

[D-Bo]

as far as i know its between 40 and 65
the light only goes on when its NOT working, not when it engages or when it IS working.
you don't have any problems till the light turns on.

[240SXSlideStar]

So maybe mine works....again, how do you know when it engages?

[D-Bo]

it just does.. maybe find a parking lot, do a turn at 37mph, then up it to 43 and see if it feels different. i can tell mine engages on off/on ramps for sure. just take them as fast as you can but make sure you can keep control.
