While we're talking GSR's, does the compliance plate make any reference to genuine GSR's?

Cool Mike, interesting info. Turns out Slo was right and there is a GK GSR at UPI - I must have missed it the day before the cruise. I was checking it out on the weekend and that's what got me thinking about the compliance plates.Someone should start a GSR register/thread if it hasn't been done already.... :)

There was a green in a 'sports' GE once and it was similar to a porsche like colour but we only ever saw one. I think it was a special 'WOODSTOCK' model. :thumpsup:

Fellas Mitsubishi did make GJ GSR Sigma in a Green colour similiar to the old porsche green.

There used to be one down here in the Wollongong area pity it slowly went to S*#T, in it's day every one wanted it.

BTW it was also given a BOOST with a FACTORY TURBO set up,


There was also a PALE BLUE/SKY BLUE GK GSR down here which looked awesome with a set of charcoal B45's it had on it.And yes also Turbo charged.

These two cars belonged to brothers.You only ever seen these cars cruising together too.

This was all in the late 80's early 90's I think.


Cheers.
