How can you tell if your 240 has HICAS? Is there a badge/labal somewhere? Can I pull my back tire off and tell between one with and without it? Im sure you can tell but what am I looking for?

Thanks for the info all.

You can tell by the big sticker that says "SUPER HICAS" on your quarter panel.

You can also tell by the label under your hood.

You can also tell by driving the car.

You can tell by lookong at your rear end. I can't remember if it is in front of the diff or be hind it but you will see a rod running the length between your tires. If you see that singular rod you have HICAS

You can also tell by the powersteering resevior.  It looks different than one from a regular car without hicas.  

There should be a hicas indicator light inside the car somewhere also.

Yup, on the dashboard.

Thanks, Kid.

You actually like HICAS???  

I can't stand the damn thing.  That thing doesn't feel right IMO.

I don't understand why it doesn't feel right to some people. . To me, it felt totally natural, and transparent. . it was the best part of my S13.
