Rb30 Power Steering Pumps

[Baz]

Can anyone confirm whether a RB30 powersteering pump can be used to replace the factory RB20/25/26 one? And any dramas that it might cause with the HICAS or power steering system. As far as I know it is a straight swap..

Thanks,

RB30 is single chamber pump so can't be used with R32 unless HICAS is going to be stripped/blocked off. I believe people have used the RB30 pump when fitting RB20 into R31, for example, but requires some mods to the mounting bracket.

HICAS on R33 is electric, so perhaps RB30 pump could be used with RB25DET but mods to pump bracket probably still apply.
