I have a few questions about HICAS and ABS

Car is R32 GTR

i have an aftermarket steering wheel with a hicas boss kit

sometimes my hicas light comes on under acceleration

i only noticed that this started happening when i put a bit extra power steering fluid in the resivior

its full at the moment, was wanting to know if the light comes on when the resiviour is too full??

i also have an ABS question, when staring the car with foot on the break is it normal for the ABS to vibrate the pedal, i dont remember it happening before?

Thanks

hey mate,

well first for the hicas problem do a self hicas diagnostic test ( search it up on Google) its really simple. It will help you locate the problem

not so sure about the abs abs is just so the wheels lock up when u slam on the brake ( i could be wrong, thats what i thought they were used for) maybe fuses or brake lines

so they DON'T lock up, actually don't STAY locked up. The ABS module bleeds brake fluid pressure so the (locked up) wheels start to rotate again.

    • The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.
    • According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly. The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.
    • Update 24/01/2025:    Bought a GReddy/Trust Intercooler (crossflow spec-LS) that was meant for a R33 GTST $871 AUD shipped, and a GReddy Profec boost controller $483 AUD, both brand new from Japan. Being honest, I would've thought the intercooler kit was discontinued but I guess not yet. Decided due to funds + time, I'll stick with a nistune on this stock-ish setup ( stock turbo set to probably 10-12psi ) and have it run cleaner ( suspect the 3" turbo back etc has sh*tted on my economy ) for my trip down south soon for the WSBK. Hopefully I can get it all installed and tuned by then. As for who I am getting it tuned with, I will be going with Toshi, (not hearing back from DVS so scratch that). There is also Birrong Auto but not sure if they do nistune installations and if they even tune it... Otherwise, anyone know where I can get my hands on an aluminium intake/suction pipe for an RB25DET NEO?
    • The german cars I've worked on seem to have that issue(in more than just headlights). Mostly where hot, but also just the insulation hardening and cracking in various places. Not abnormal from what ive seen.
    • According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same. Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.   Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.
