Hicas eliminator

I was looking all over the Z forums and I can't find any write up for installing the Hicas eliminator. How do you exactly install this? Do you just disconnect the Hicas system and install the eliminator kit? I have read some old post that you have to change the TT pump to NA and plugs some of the holes. I seems like there are more things that needed to be done and purchase when installing the Hicas Eliminator kit. Any advice would help!!!!

Yes, basically you remove the HICAS actuator from the rear and replace it with the HICA eliminator bar. ZXDUDE has done this mod. You should PM him.

Most kits come with a fluid recirc pipe you install in the rear as well if it's an early year Hicas that uses the fluid pump and not the electric one. With this you don't have to change the pump or anything.

You only need to change the pump, lines, brackets, pully, etc out to NA equipemnt when you are completely removing the system from the car. That means taking out the equipment in the front of the engine bay on the fender.

I'd suggest you change the whole subframe from the TT to N/A. I changed mine and it made a worlds of difference, but I'm not sure if it was the solid sub frame or the fact I installed a bushing kit at the same time, But for me it felt more solid.
