Mechanics In Sydney For Hicas

[KJS]

Does anyone know any mechanic who could install the HICAS lock bar and do a wheel alignment?

I had called up quite a number of workshop which I found from the internet but is not fruitful...many have not heard about HICAS.

Moderator does not allow poster to post workshop name, so kindly pm me if you know some where.

I have the lock bar, therefore scope would be install and wheel alignment.

I live in Homebush area and work near Blacktown area, any place near here would be good!

many thanks

best bet is find a place that does wheel alignments, and check how friendly they are with you doing work in the carpark I was lucky; my mechanic hoisted up my car on the wheel alignment thingy so i could get at it; i did the HICAS bar, then they lowered and aligned it.

i done my own lock bar, i was actually surprised how easy it was. then a quick drive up the road to get a wheel alignment.

Just keep in mind sometimes the best mechanics are not always just around the corner, i take mine about 30 mins from where I live.

time is nothing when i know im getting a job done right.

do you have the loop piece to put on the hydraulic lines?

you can grab them from just jap.

ive heard of power steer pumps overheating with line removal.

also, open to saturday work?

if so, ill pm you to have a further talk.

thanks everyone, so far I received 3 replies from SAU!

I wish to do it by myself based on the "installation manual" from SAU but I am a zero mechanic guy (I don't have the correct tools and just relocated from Brisbane)

yes I don't mind to travel far to get the job done

I just purchase the lock bar from ISC Performance and I think i don't have the hydraulic line... do i need it?

My vehicle is an R33 sedan

Mine's a S1 R33 coupe, and there's no hydraulics, just gotta tuck electrical cables out of the way. Undo two bolts, disconnect the tie rods (i think) using a shifter, and bam,in business!

Hey, try Andrew at ASR automotive (Castle Hill) 8677 3000 -he won't be able to do a wheelie for you but can install the lock bar no probs. Top bloke and very experienced with Nissans.

R33 is an electric hicas. No hydraulic lines at all.
