| what I plan to do. I still find it hard to believe I found such a good deal :) I stumbled upon it while searching ebay for parts for my 240sx. It was about 12 midnight on Thursday. I had the next day off from work. I was looking at a part, a cusco tension rod like the one in the link below. It was another item he was selling. I looked at the other items he was selling and saw the subframe. I also bought the cusco rod and the rest of the energy suspension bushing kit which he still had in the original box, both for an extra $50. Another great deal. So $500 for everything. The guy's name is Mike and he has a really nice Z. I took a few pictures of it and will try to post them later if he says it's OK. Like most of us he's been collecting tons of Z parts over the years and the things I bought was part of them. He originally got them from a friend of his a few years ago. His friend had a show car and took it out one day only to get into an accident which forced him to part out the car. Luckily for me, :), these parts didn't get damaged.

During this whole exchange of communication I was in email with Bernie. I had been planning on deleting my HICAS but I didnt remember where the HICAS delete bolted to on the subframe. I was asking Bernie because I was thinking that the delete bolted to where the HICAS rack bolts went and I have a midori HICAS eliminator and was afraid it wouldn't work for 94 subframe with electric HICAS. Around 2am Bernie got back with me and said it wouldn't be a problem and by that time I had figured it out anyway by doing some google image searching. The next day I drove up to NJ and picked everything up. So now I'm planning on doing a hydraulic to electric HICAS conversion. Don't know if its been done before but I traced everything out and it looks like it won't be a problem other than I'll have to make my own special harness for it. I'm still trying to find the connector for the 94+ HICAS module and the three connectors for the rack. The two rack sensor connectors look pretty common and I may do something of my own for the motor connector since the housing to it is broken as can be seen in the pictures. I'll use a connector out of an old 90-93 HICAS module for the female end of the harness which the stock body harness connector will plug into. I already found a 1994 HICAS module for $45 shipped and just received it today.
