What have I created? Trueno? Sprinter?

Ok... I want to paint the car and get the rear trunk stickers... but what the heck is it visually? I mean, I hate to get Trueno Sprinter decals if that isn't what it looks like! lol

So 2 part question. First, what model does it resemble, and what do I have for the front end and tails? Zenki? Kouki? I never remember!

you have a zenki for the front end, I don't know the difference in tails for the zenki and kouki.

as it says trueno on the front I would go with trueno stickers. Most people seeing it drive around wouldn't know if you mixed or matched Zenki and Kouki parts. And unless your going for an Authentic look then what are you worried about? you can pick what you like from 3 different styles, zenki, kouki, and USDM.

and just for my curisosity did the trueno have the hood scoop? or was it just the levin that had it with the 4agze (I am not sure if the 4agze came in the trueno)

The Trueno/Levin had the scoop if they were the GTZ models with the 4agze. The scoop is original to the hood, and as you know that hood only fits Truenos.

Also, I have the hood emblem that is in Freak's sig... but I don't think that is the correct one... from what I can find in pix it looks like the AE92 Trueno had one that was flat on top and slightly pointed on the bottom... so I don't know if I want to put it on or not.

Anyone have a clear pic of a real AE92 Trueno front end?

Or wait... does it matter if it is the Zenki or Kouki front end (the emblem)?

The Emblem goes on the Kouki Front end, the 'Trueno' on the bumper is the emblem on the Zenki Front end...

I Believe its the 'C' Logo... You will find these on some of the lower-end AE101's.

All the exterior parts you added are zenki.So your car looks like an early model GTZ.

On ae101's the levin has "levin" written on the grill, and the trueno has a little badge on the bonnet which says "trueno"

I'd say NO decals and just a TRUENO symbol on the bumper would do.. keep the people wondering.
