What is HICAS

HyperREV 01-31-2005 09:57 PM

nissans 4 wheel steering used on the 240sx, skyline gt-r, and 300zx tt among others...

Saturn2nr 01-31-2005 10:14 PM

4ws on a rwd car is shitty... wouldnt be too bad on the skyline though.. even though it runs rwd unless there is slippage of the rear tires... yay for the attesa ets

HyperREV 01-31-2005 10:17 PM

shitty for what? it helps grip at high speed like you wouldn't believe.

its only shitty if you want to drift.

There's slippage in the 240 and 300zx too. Its what it prevents.

Still kills a drift.... if that's what you dig.




There's hucas lock kits out for the drifters.

Saturn2nr 01-31-2005 10:19 PM

Thats kinda what i meant... should have put that in there. If your drifting or your rear tires break loose it wouldnt be a fun ride

I would find it fun:D

RRxtar 01-31-2005 10:23 PM

personally id rather drive a car that does what i want it to, not what it thinks it wants to. thats why i dont believe in ABS and to a lesser extent, powersteering.

SmokeyTheBandit 01-31-2005 10:26 PM

heh... abs saves lives

imagine if the women driving on this earth didnt have ABS... when they let go of the steering wheel, close their eyes, scream and stomp the brakes... at least ABS would prevent lockup

but i bet 50% of women hit the gas instead of the brake

HyperREV 01-31-2005 10:35 PM

you can still drift with hicas, it just takes a little getting used to thats all.

Can you replace man with woman and still keep that statement truthful?

Slo40 02-01-2005 07:50 AM

Well since I come from the school of honda I'm so used to making the car stick the turns and actually go fast thru the corners, so I see HICAS for what it really is and not as a driftablility problem. Should I decide that drifting is for me I know that HICAS is not an option, but I like to have all four tires planted and feel the G's. Besides, if I wanted a drift car I sure wouldn't have bought this car, I would have gotten a $2000 POS that I didn't care about.

As far as the ABS goes I haven't been able to enguage it yet, but I want to get used to the car before I drive it at its limits.

I can hardly wait for HyperREV to get his new car, I give it the big 'ol thumbs up ;)
