I have a 84 Mark I turbo hatch that is what I think is called Sunset bronze. My car has turbo graphics on the bottom sides of the car just above the side skirts. I have not seen any pictures of another set of decals on any car on this website nor by doing a search. Were there any factory graphics packages offered or was this something the dealer may have installed on the lot. Any feedback is appreciated because I would feel pretty dumb if I took off the decals and found out they are valuable.
Thanks

Factory decals??
How about giving us a nice pic of what they look like.
If there already on the car, after all this time there not gonna be valuable to sell since taking them off after so many years would desrroy them and they add no value to the car really. That said most all the decals were dealer added. Not really factory as far as US models go. Unless of course you consider the "shadow edition" SE
As I recall there was a member here from Utah that purchased a white turbo with graphics sort of like you are describing. I think he posted picks in the welcome section a while back. As night_s12 stated, pretty much all of them were dealer installed and it will be an impossible task to find new ones. Your best bet is to take lots of pictures of them including some strait on pictures with a ruler or measuring tape flat against them. Somebody with some graphics or CAD background like me could easily provide a 99% acurate rendering of it. There are lots of places that could reproduce it as a vinyl decal. If you do go that route please make sure you post it here for posterity's sake.
I have a picture of the car on I guess you would call my profile although it does not show much detail. Thanks for the input on the decals guys. I'm sure these graphics were pretty cool in 84! but to me they looked a little dated.

I think most people here, including me, generally refer to this color as burnt orange. It is a very desirable color being that it was a one year only color and most if not all s12's that came with burnt orange paint seem to sport the very rare black interiors.
Also, I took the liberty of posting your profile picture below. That is one sexy s12.

Its my second favorite stock s12 color
Thanks for the info guys, yeah it has the black interior in almost pristine shape except for some torn vinly on the doors and one small tear on the seat. It's getting an evo IIX intercooler put in it right now to go with a bigger turbo. Between the peeps on this forum and a good friend of mine I would of been lost in resurrecting this car. It still needs some suspension work and some more fuel but the longer I own it the more I get to love this car.
dont forget bigger injectors and an fpr along with a fuelpump....
Any idea about horsepower potential with these mods? T28 turbo, fmic, L28 injectors and a walbro 190 fuel pump. It seems absolute truth that above 10 psi of boost and a push of over 200 horsepower that the stock internals go boom or the head gasket. I already have dual electric fans installed, less restrictive exhaust completed.
its not absolute truth lol just keep an eye on your afr's and you should be good Also I have have pushed 15 psi out of the t25g from an sr with 450cc injectors I had an safc to tune with which was a pain in the ass because the stock ecu wasn't responding until I started taking a crap load of fuel out. also the same motor I was running a evo 3 big 16g which is iirc slightly bigger than the t28. not sure how much power I was making as my ecu took a shit on me before I could get to the dyno.
