Message easier to adjust cars attitude though a corner and keep it there than with HICAS at least for me. Seedy said it very well and succintly...it really is personal preference and what your used to. For me, between Skip Barber schooling and tracking cars that didnt have rear wheel steering it was difficult for me to change my driving style to accomodate HICAS. For the very adept drivers out there who can adapt to anything HICAS probably is just fine even on the track. I perfer a minimum of variables in the handling traits and want as much control personally as I can have over the car. Same goes for ABS..wish there was a switch to turn it off so I could again threshold brake easily..much more difficult w/ABS.

Since the car was designed with HICAS in most cases it is probably best to leave it alone. I have totally ditched the stock suspension in favor of a setup I am much more comfortable with for my personal driving style.
