Headlights, taillights and center piece, different engine in the i4 line (3sfe -> 5sfe) different front gril, different front blinkers and running lights, different front lip. that's about it i think.

v6 changed too, 3vz-fe to the 1mz-fe
cast iron block with big beefy internals, to wimpy aluminum block with tiny rods,
and theres always the seemingly random sealed/serviceble strut fiasco

Gen 3 (92 - 96) I4 = 5S-FE.
Gen 2 (87 - 91) I4 = 3S-FE.
