Hicas ellimination
As for fitting a na subframe to a tt hicas car it can be a nightmare removing the balljoints in the alloy hubs when you do remove them without destroying the alloy rear hubs you need a set of na rear toe arms and some bushes to fit in place of the balljoints this is the ideal way .But if your inner rack ball joints under the rack gaiter are in good shape and your hub side ball joints are in good shape a lock bar should do the same job.

EH7 touch up paint
Is eh7 pearl glow yellow avalible from nissan in the uk as a touch up i heard it wasnt only in the us .My nissan dealer can get import parts so i dont see why they cant get touch up paint .If not does any one know of a simular colour avalible of the shelf the reason im asking is that ive had my rear arches rolled and flared and the inside lip has lost its paint now .i dont now if eh7 pearl glow was a uk colour or not its a 3 stage paint what ever that means thanks taff.
