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!!

Balls... i removed that had a funny feeling i should of at the time of doing so!



Do i have to change the steering rack? not just change the pump & bracket?

Thats a good one gem. Didnt know that. Surely if you've all the wires and everything off the rack it wont be restricting it?
