What differences are there between all the years, I reviewed the past 50 pages in the 91-99 years forum and all I could find out is the 93 head is better that the 92 because of roller rockers and the 93 is the last year to pull codes, and the 95 is the start of the series ii L67, and don't buy one with real low miles........

is that it or am I missing some stuff.....
the 93 is the last year you can retieve trouble codes and didnt have to use a scantool.

the 95 is the start of the series II L36 (95 L67 still had a series I)
the 96 is the start of the series II L67

93 was the first year of the upgraded valvetrain (full roller).
93 was the last year for the flash feature in the PCM for codes, as mentioned.
93 was the last year of full OBD1 (hybrid pcm started in 94).
93 was the last year of ECC onboard diagnostics.
93 was the first year of the improved sunroof trim and switch (although some 92'* got it)
93 does not have the 'code 58 bug' in the PCM that the 92'* had.
93 has aftermarket PCM options.
93 L27'* all had an EGR valve, preventing burnt valves that some 92'* suffer from.

Thank you for the information that you all have provided to me.
Sounds like 93 is a crittical year with a lot of changes for the better.

I am going to try and call on these today and see what the story is behind each car.
I did find a 92SSEi but the price is at the moon $6995.00, 112,000mi, I think this guy is nuts.
1994 SSEi $3995 123,000mi, color green
1994 SSEi $NO PRICE YET$ 117,000 mi, color white
1995 SSE SC $3995 121,000mi, color champ
