Power Steering lines

Ok so i just finished my silvia conversion, and i did abunch of expensive time consuming upgrades on my suspension....and i have a very bad power steering line... ONE problem I have hicas and when i called nissan to see how much the part would cost they said $310 !!! and wont tell me if the part is the same for a normal powersteering and a hicas s13....Any one know if the pressure line from the pump to the rack is the same?

If this is the wrong section to post this i am sorry.

Go to a junk yard and get all the non hicas power steering parts.

That will save you a TON of headache in the future.

it was like a bearing place opr something, I took my car to a shop to get the line repaired and they told me they could just have a new one made.

Why do u wana keep your hicas?
