Nice looking boat! How many miles on it?

Its got 176,000 on the odameter but the engine didnt want to work anymore (because the psi on all the pistons were like 20 psi and only one was 120psi) so i had to change the engine. The new engine i put in has 50,000 miles. This car was actually passed down to me by my parents but with the engine blown. So i changed it with my dad but when we put everything in we found out the transmission was bad because the car was sitting for 3-4 yrs ( its been sitting because i kept moving) and the cylinoids in the transmission went bad (transmission was in excellent condition when the engine went bad but it sitting for such a long time caused it to go bad so right now im currently looking for a transmission on this car, and close to buying one from ebay motors so i should have it rolling soon.

This is what someone did on a 1994, not sure if it applies to the 90-93's??

Random pic after re-applying the lettering on the rear panel today

One of those little duplicolor touch up things, brushed it on incredibly carefully, and then used a blade to scrape off any paint that wasn't on the raised face of the letters.

I was able to touch up the lettering on my 94 because they are raised but on the 90-93 they are on the inside of the rear reflector bar. I haven't heard of anyone trying but it's nothing more than 10mm nuts and a bunch of plastic clips to remove the piece and probably won't take 15 minutes once you get started. Check it out and let us know (since I need to do mine too).

I touched up the "Infiniti" on my '94 trunk with a Silver Sharpie marker a while back. It turned out nice and was simple. It's faded again but only takes a second to touch up again.

Not sure how the trunk is on the '92.
