    We've been developing this kit for some time. It's now here, ready to solve the problems every single Skyline owner has suffered, or will suffer time and time again.

    Complete HICAS Elimination System. From HICAS Rack to the very weak tie rod, to tie rod ends, to the ball joints that always break. Everything is replaced.

    Should be in the shop tomorrow, but here's some sneak pictures :) (P.S. pictures are crap as it's so dark now :cry: We'll get some better ones up asap )

    £195 inc VAT

    Thats wicked guys.

    I wish this was around before I ally-bushed my spare subframe and bought the toe arms, it would have been much easier as I'm putting off doing the swap still :rolleyes:.

    This is just what the doctor ordered only i dont need the polly bushes or the bolts for the poly bushed ends.

    do they give you the correct angle on the toe arm as if it was on a non hicas subframe?

    We're just talking about getting a trade section there again, but in the mean time if someone wants to post it up there, that'd be sweet :)


    They use exactly the same mount position as a non hicas model subframe.

    What are you using in your hubs then?

    I have custom fabricated hicas arm ends to use the poly bushed hubs there pretty posh but there is still a small amount of play in the hicas spherical (sp) joint where it connects to the lockout bar

    Yup, we've had a set rolling around on a T78 equipped R32 GTR for a while. :) Test fitted the brackets for fitment on a couple of different subframes.
