Been shopping around for a 95-98 240sx and was wondering if there was an easy way to tell if it's equipped with HICAS, as i'm trying to avoid it. Also did ABS and a viscous LSD come as a package?

No 240s from that year range came with super-hicas.

just for anyone elses reference though, HICAS equiped S13's can be identified by a K in the third or forth letter of the VIN number

Cars with hicas will have a black strip of tape along the bottom of the car saying super hicas, unless its been painted taken off etc. Or on the inside there will be something that looks like a button but is not and that says hicas. If you want hicas its on the 91-93 models .

The only warning that my car has Hicas is by getting underneath the car and looking and little arms with rubber boots, and the motor in between.. no other visible sign, apart from KS-13 (CA18DE/T Hicas 2 Series 1 1990 model)
