Since pics seem to be so important to the Nico community I got a few this morning, it was raining so it is kinda muddy. Enjoy

CLEAN car.. Is it truly a T or does it just have the spoiler?

I don't know, it doesn't say T on the back. How else can I tell if it is a touring?

Well you could look at your instrument cluster on the right hand side and see if you have a light for "hicas"..

Also the PS res will look big and the cap will have wires coming from it.

Woot & All,

I'm a lurker here and just stopped by for another visit when I saw your pic's. I love those wheels! Do you mind if I ask what they are?

Nice wheels. They look like G35 wheels, are they?

The wheels all appear to have a Lexus emblem on them. They look like something I'd find on an SUV too.

There's a FX35 feel to them, but the spokes on the FX's wheels are "thicker".

Not at all. They are G35 wheels with a Lexus cap (They already had the cap when I got em).

I guess it is a touring. It does have the HICAS light. What is HICAS?

Sure are. 18" G35 stockies.

That is wrong on so many levels! Time to get some Infiniti center caps on that puppy. Until then a can of Krylon will fix them

Seriously, it's a great looking Q - thanks for posting pics!

Has it been recently detailed? It looks SO CLEAN. I love it. It looks fierce with the spoiler. A serious bad *** vehicle.

Nope, I have never detailed it. I just wash it and vacuum it out out every week. I will be giving it a good wax job pretty quick here and than I am going to take pics and build me a signature.

HICAS is basically 4 wheel steering... A neat feature that, IMO, does more good by telling people your car has 4 wheel steering than actually improving handling. Good news it hardly ever gives people problems.

I enjoyed looking at the pics and especially the Arizona plate; our 1990 is a Hicus 't' model and looks identical to yours with the exception of the wheels. Those are nice looking wheels; are they aftermarket or OEM? I just finished having alloy wheels rechromed and they came out looking spectacular...

Chuck,

If you look up about 7 or 8 posts you'll see in one of his answers that they are G35 stock wheels.

It drops jaws when I tell people that my 17 year old car has 4 wheel steering when they are standing by their new 50K Cadi that doesn't have it. LOL

P.S. Not bashing Cadi's, I love em I just thought that was interesting.

Nice pics and wheel choice. I would cry if I had to park in the mud (I have white carpets in my car).

Yeah I know, I hate to park in the mud but it doesn't rain very much here so I dont have the problem too much. Most of the time I just park on the concrete pad there so I don't ruin the carpets but I had to back it up to get some real pics.
