Hi, is the hicas on a skyline the same as a Z, I ask because Newera parts sell eliminators for £75.00 but are for Skylines.

 

Anyone know?

HI, yes I live in Aylesbury and have two Z'z, a lwb auto TT and a SWB manual TT . Fancy meeting sometime? Send me a PM. Mark.

No they are not the same as Nistech sent me a Skylark eliminator first and although the elimiator is the same lenght the mounting holes are in a different place. + If its the boarder type that have ajustable arms they are much shorter.

OK thanks, anyone know the length of one for a Z?

I've got one at home never fitted it because by the time Nistech sent the right one I'd aquired a Stillen. So if you want it its £200 if ya don't I'll mesure it for you. (THE eliminator)

 

It has to be the same size as Your HICAS as it replaces it and the pivet points have to bee exactly the same. Otherwise it would push your rear wheels toe in under compression if too long and toe out if too short. Which would be interesting at least when cornering hard.

Thanks Mark, I stuggle with spending £200.00 on a simple bit a metal, and as I said Newera are doing Skyline ones for £75.00. Thanks for the offer, not saying yours is not worth it generally I just think they are too expensice.

 

Could you measure it exactly for me please? maybe a small drawing? Thanks

Ive been told (but i may be wrong) that you can use the

parts from a non tubby to eliminate the hi cas

Thanks, I have heard that too now you mention it, cheers mate.
