GXE also had chrome window/grille/taillight trim, and body-colored mirrors, in addition to the lack of fogs, and lack of spoiler. A de-fogged SE still looks like an SE to me.
#10
yea the GXE fogs were small tho. Was the spoiler you saw on a GXE the same or different? And I didn't mention the gauges b/c it isn't an external feature (tho neither is BOSE and I did mention that )

so the one exception to the rule is you can't post pictures straight out of gmail. it's encrypted content, and is only available when logged in as yourself... not to the rest of us. You'd have to save the picture to your computer then upload it to imgur or something for us to see it.

also, being a 92-94, you can be ultra-sure yours is an SE because you have a DOHC engine

ok so how do you expect "hooking up a battery" to fix that rust? short circuiting it against the sheet metal of the car? That might get you seriously injured, or killed....
Electrolysis requires submersion in a bath of some solution that has chemicals in it, and something to trade the rust with (hunk of steel?).... you can't dunk your whole car.

She looks good and you have the VE motor which also makes it an SE model. The Magnaflow cat is the only worth buying. Warpspeed makes some good exhaust parts for the 3rdgen. Some nice aftermarket wheels look dope on the 3G.

price depends because for a VE you need to do alot of custom work, VG you can at least use some parts from Z31 VG30ET but VE youre all on your own
#33
first of all the VE is a higher compression engine so you're going to have to play it fairly conservative unless you swap in some different pistons that have a dished shape to lower the compression ratio.
second of all, all of the exhaust and intake piping has to be 100% custom because the port shapes between VG and VE don't match up so you will limit your potential by using z31 parts. Maybe a pair of z32 manifolds with a custom merge pipe + turbo flange will work though, because the ports look more similar.
third your VE might not have an oil feed tap like the VG does, so you'll have to figure that out in addition to your return line, and your coolant lines also.
fourth, before you make the car accelerate better, make sure it can turn better and stop better. Speed is good. Uncontrollable speed is bad.

Here is my list of priorities for the car.
-Save some money
-go to local performance shop to evaluate car. (turn in concepts if ur in cnci)
-buy cold air intake, air flow adapter, and a 40 series flowmaster muffler. perhaps an exhaust tip too
-save money
- get a magnaflow cat
- save money
-rims and cosmetics
-upgrade suspension( new shock absorbers etc) and get new brakes
look for a turbo
