Hicas Lockbar

[SL1D1N]

Hello, putting a lock bar on my r33 gtst and i have been told that because there will be no motor plugged in there will be a fault and the car will retard the timing. Is this right?? or wont it effect it.

Also when i do take it out should i pull out the Hicas control unit or does it not matter, and how will this effect my steering.

cheers

The timing thing is complete nonsense..

In relation to the steering, some cars seem to be affected by heavy steering after removing hicas and some are not..

When i fitted my hicas lock bar i did not remove the control unit and my steering was not affected. IMHO i would suggest leaving the control unit in.

leave it in, just remove the globe from the dash as it will always be on

and get a rear wheel alignment as it might have moved
