GSI badge for 2g

Post by Rob_Cool1 » Wed Dec 11, 2013 12:56 am

Hi guys, just wondering if there ever was a GSI badge for the 2g?
I noticed when i cleaned the car the other day just before the 2.0i-16 badge on the right theres a noticeably whiter square as if something, like a badge, had been there before. its about 5cm wide and about 2-2.5cm tall.

Not sure if you can get a GSI badge but thought I'd ask or if anyone might know what it could've been

Cheers
Rob

I can indeed :)

There are no GSi badges for the Prelude GSi or Accord GSi. You should just have the 2.0i-16 badge and the 4 wheel anti lock brake badge on the boot, like below

A diagram of all the emblems on the car is available on the Ling's website for reference ;)

There was indeed a Gsi badge. Pretty rare though.

Lings don't list it on their diagram from memory, I don't think the BA2 supplement does either? :?

Well I've just been through the digital files I have of these:

2G 2.0 Si Brochure Japan
2G Brochure 1983
2G Brochure Germany 1983
2G Brochure Japan 1982
2G Brochure Japan 1983
2G Brochure Netherlands 1984
2G Brochure Netherlands 1984 (2)
2G Brochure Netherlands 1985
2G Brochure Sweden 1983
2G Brochure UK 1985
2G Mugen Power Brochure Japan

And there isn't a single GSi badge in sight. Haven't got any US ones so can't confirm.

Could you draw one using your chemical drawing program?
