I did a little searching but couldn't really find what I was looking for. I've got a '91 hatchback that has HICAS, and I was wondering if any real coilovers, not sleeves, will work with it. Or do I need to get an eliminator? Getting ready to get some suspension to put on and wanted to be sure before I bought them. Also getting RUCAS, toe rods, and sway bars. Will all of this work on a HICAS model the same as a non-HICAS?

Toe arms are the only thing that will be different. The rest will work as normal. I would probably get an eliminator though personally.

As far as coilovers you should have no problem with the HICAS

Called a shop yesterday and they said that toe rods would be the only thing that wouldn't work with the HICAS, as shane said. I would like to keep the HICAS, but will get an eliminator if I run into problems. Thanks guys
