Hey, I was just looking at your threads and saw this.

There is a good chance that you will NOT get back a hicas rack. Most places that give you a new rack in exchange for yours will give you a non hicas one, and its not easy to tell the different between the two by looking at them. (IIRC)

Unless you know a place that will rebuild the one you give them, it may not be worth it.


Ps, I have a hicas rack, and you don't. =)

I have a used HICAS rack complete off of my 90 300ZX. I did a HICAS delete and have no use for it. It was working fine when it was removed with the exception of a very slight movement of the left side ball joint. I'd replace the balljoint (http://lh6.ggpht.com/_3cZnFvtBbT8/SjrpKfcON1I/AAAAAAAABHs/ier9dIYqY0M/s800/P1080104.JPG) as part of the process anyway.
I'm not sure if it will fit though.

Yeah, its a chance I would take, but Looking at the parts they specifically have a price difference for the core units, so if i get back a rack and its not hicas I will just send it back and complain. They cant pull a fast one.

i have stock beat up racks too, but for core they ask specifically for hicas model.

what are the pro's and con's of having hicas, all i know is your rear wheel turns too.. but when i turn the steering wheel, i dont see it turning..

I think nobody likes HICAS, I just want the front steering rack because it has a shorter ratio
