My R32 GT-R has the Hicas light on and wanders all over the place (due to the rear steering not playing ball I would suspect) at highway speeds. I am intending to rip it all out and throw a lock bar in there, however I was wondering whether I could just install the bar right now with no other mods? Would this stress out the pump or anything else (thats if its even pressurising the rear steering rack anyways!)?

Basically after a quick fix for the meantime...

i put a lock bar in mine and plugged the lines

however i believe if u want to do it properly u need to sort out your power steering pump (rb25 is fine) - cuz the standard one will eventually die once the hicas is removed..

Fitting a lock bar will improve high speed handling. It will not effect the power steering pump, because Hicas is electric steering, however the Hicas light will stay on. If Hicas is removed you can either ignore the light or remove the globe from the dash cluster.
