What's different from a GS to an LS

[IntegratedLS]

What is so different about a GS than an LS on my 1992 Acura? I want to know exactly if mine is a gs or ls because the guy that had it before me shaved all the emblems off and told me it was an ls. But my insurance company ran it as a gs im confused let me know please.

You can always check the vin yourself with our decoder in the how to section. You should have abs, moon roof, power windows and power locks. Alloy wheels, pretty sure every gs had a spoiler.

Anything different with transmission or anything performance?

 

[TegSox]

No difference in performance or tranny, just different options.

btw, how come you have an avatar pic of a G3 but you have a G2?

They never had leather seats in Gen 2 GS-r's

[DarkDB1]

BTW, i stole that from a thread on G2IC... theres no way im that smart.

Although it did say the same thing on my original repair manual...

 

[slikk]

all LS models are wingless

the 90 Ls came with a wing .. however the GS wing had a LED and the LS wing didnt

 

[Ominous G2]

There is a vin decoder in the How to section

 

[Street Anthem]

Do 3rd gen Vin break downs!

 

[DarkDB1]

I dont know anything about 3rd gens... all i know is that the RS is the strip down model just like G2s and the GSRs have B18C1's... and 96+ LS,RS and GS's Have b18B's...
