Ae71 Spirit Identification.

[Trev]

So I got my 71 on the weekend and as soon as I seen it I immediately thought 'spirit' as it has several spirit features (interior, wing and grille) but it is badged as a CS-X. Now I can remember something from my old ae71 sales brochure that said that the spirit was basically a stickered CS-X.

 

Basic run down:

 

2 tone seats.

 

Colour coded grille.

 

Spirit wing

 

 

And all the other cs-x options (except boot/fuel release).

 

passenger vanity mirror.

 

internally adjusted side mirrors.

 

Tacho dash.

 

Console compartment.

 

retracting rear belts.

 

Front door pockets.

 

Now I don't really care if it's a cs-x or if it's a spirit as it isn't going to change anything but I am just curious as to what it is, CS-X fitted from factory with spirit stuff perhaps.

Its weird it doesnt have boot/fuel poppers. I thought they were standard in every AE71.

Nah not all.

One thing Ive learned is that for such a seemingly simple car the variations on the main theme are immense.

Yeah, I was using this:

Yeah I found that on old mates build thread but there was more to it.

[B.L.Z.BUB]

Ahh, none of the pictures worked for me in that thread.

[Trev]

Nah I meant to that brochure.

[Trev]

Hmmm, I was just reading through my owners manuals and across this in the front where the vehicle details are:

 

VERSION / DESCRIPTION

 

EMFSA

 

Sedan, MAN 5SP SPT 4DR L

 

I am guessing that SPT means Spirit?

[B.L.Z.BUB]
