Were the black and white verts the only limited editions from 92-94? I see the limited edition writing on only black and white ones. Were the red ones just regulars? (even in 94?)

Mine has the SE and all on it...but on the sides I thought mine didn't have the limited edition. I guess time and weather wore it off. On the left side you can barely see the limited edition...on the right side i can't see it all.

I dunno how the limited edition can wear off the strip so much...its like ghost paint (you know the paint where you have to look close to see the sponsor)

its not paint. the black stripe is a sticker. then the special edition is a sticker on top of that.

All 240 verts should have 'LIMITED EDITION' on black quarter panel strip. Mine worn out really bad, so I created templates with pencil and paper. Left and right are NOT same, so I had to create for each side. I got some white sticker sheet for free from sign store and cut them with paper knife. It was very tedious process, but my patience paid off. My car was kinda beat up when I first got it, so my goal was restoring it to stock condition. Here's the 'LIMITED EDITION' sticker on my car.

Way cool.

Someone should reproduce those decals.

I have a pair in good shape if someone has a vinyl shop.

JRd916,Oh! So you removed all strips and left only the driver's side quarter strip? I think it'll look better if you remove all of it.

Off topic. I like your 5 spoke rims. What kind of rims are those? I can see that tires are Kumho, but I'd like to know rim, tire and suspension specs. Thanks!

KOSEI FTW! Yeah, those are nice choice. I'm a huge fan of 5 spoke rims just like yours. Color goes well with red vert and nice drop too. BTW, can you check wheel size(16 or 17?) when you get a chance, and is that Eibach Sportline or Prokit?

17x7 all around im pretty sure they're the sportline, oh yea btw just blew my radiator. quick question, could it be because i put my license plate in the air dam? i feel stupid, now its gunna cost me at least 300$ for a new one

no the license plate would affect airflow to the rad. but not the pressure inside. use a stock license plate mount it will put it up on the bumper out of the way of the radiator and AC.and as for the radiator they are $40-60 from a junkyard so don't freak out, for $300 you can get an all aluminum koyo. And stock radiators are lightweight so check ebay they don't cost much to ship. What blew up on it anyway?
