Buy a hicas eliminator and fit some stock wheels :D

 

I would like to Activate HICAS for normal driving...

 

Thanks for the reply

No problem buddy, the main issue you are going to hit is that the hicas is always going to try and cancel out any sliding from the back end.

 

I know Micky B had a button to enable/disable Hicas on his car, theres a plug you can uplug in the hicas controller under the bonnet that switches the system off but it does not lock the arms in place so you'd find under hard cornering the arms would move and it could be potentially dangerous

Just unplug it. Takes all of 2 and a half seconds. Open the bonnet and remove the connector ontop of the HICAS control unit.

jejej, It fast!!!but....HICAS is free to turn/turning?

 

Sorry I don´t know which word it the best

No, it switches it off. HICAS won't operate. You'll see the HICAS warning light on the dash indicating it as being disabled.

It doesn't fix it matey, the only thing holding the wheels in place is the oil in the system as far as i remember so the wheels can still move by themselves under severe cornering, i may be wrong on that one though?

I know, but it's a quick way of disabling the system which is what he asked. ;)

With the connector off of the solenoids (assuming it's the hydraulic version) the HICAS cannot operate as the valves are shut.

Just dump it and be done, i think the japs invented hicas just coz they could and to show off... ooo rooky rooky rot re hav here rear reel steering. Get rid of it....

 

I have :D

Pmsl!

Here is a video of the day....impossible with dry road,285-30-18...HICAs..pfff..

In these laps, I ran with my father..

 

(In these laps, I didn´t try to drift)

just goes to show how good the system is on keeping the rear end in track!

 

on road you dont want the back end to be all over the place LOL.

your z looks nicely planted on the road.

Please help me, I don´t understand that. HICAS turns the rear wheels a few degrees to

make the car running better through curves. But when the wheels slide - isn´t it unimportant, which angle they have? Only braking the wheels, like a tracktion control, could

stop sliding...

 

When he drives 40 km/h trough a tight curve with 2nd gear, it won´t slide without cluch...
