Skyline R32 Steering problems

[Dunnedriftin]

Was out in the car today, and the steering is very very heavy when i try turn at all... Its not the fluid & the bottle over flows after a bit of drifting but thats normal im told from the quick change in steering...

Its got a hicas lockout bar ( i didnt fit it) & the powersteering belt is fine as far as i could see.. Its fully standard up front exept coilovers!

Its a RB20 engine, woundering has anybody else had this problem or ideas as what it could be?

Yeah afaik all the pipes are gone, change the pump totally & job done, perfect? Does it bolt up nice or need to modify to fit?

Is there any fluid left if it's boiling ?
Have the rear vanes being removed from the pump ?

yeah pleanty of fluid in the tank... duno i havnt checked, i will tomorow!

when you mean vanes, you mean the pipes for hicas?

if all the hicas has been removed chances are some one took out the hicas ecu(mounted under the rear parcel shelf) if its disconected the front sterrimg will go heavy because the valve on the front steering rack will close get a pump+bracket and lines from r33 and rack from a 180 and the job will be 110% only way it to get rid of every part of that hicas crap!!

Before i explode! Gem this is for you but if somebody has a 110% answer thats good enough!

iv got a 180sx Steering Rack, pump & rods & ends..

Will that all bolt up to my R32 and get rid of all the shite problems iv got?

Also will i need the 180sx / sr20 pump brackets / fan belt ?

anything else i need or will it all just bolt together like abc!?

as i said you will only need the back half off the sr20 pump and mate it to the rb pump with the veins removed this will remove the 2nd pressure line off the pump, the sr 20 pump will not bolt on to the rb engine, i have a pump here done if you want ill swap you for your pumps and it will be just bolt on
as for the rack yes strait bolt in replacement, you may have to bend the 2 metal pipe a small bit to get them to bolt up but that is it!
