reason behind hicas

i understand what it does, but was this an upgraded option?

and so you have an LSD if you do a 2 tire burnout, but dont if you do a 1 tire burnout.

so the hicas applies to the one tire?

hmm this is going to get confusing..

Sounds like your confusing your self

Super HICAS was only a OPTION on 240SX Hatchback SE's between the years of 91-93.

If you do a burnout and leave 2 seperate tire marks, then you have a VLSD. If only one, then you have open diff.

HICAS applies to the rear tires. Both

ok well i have a 90.. so do i even have an lsd?


eddited:

ok i know it donsn't and that really sucks, its an open differential,

so whichever tire slips thats what gets the power..

i know LSD's are so much better, hmm now i have to go find a conversion for that! haha

ummm an lsd is a part....not an conversion....conversion is like going from a s13 to a sileighty or a s15...

but yea...from the sounds of it ure pretty new to this so u might wanna do a lil research on the different types of lsds before u end up buying a vlsd and then a month after dump it for a 2 way....

You wouldn't get the most out of "something you won't dump" if you don't know it's purpose and how it works.
