Based on teh tunnel decals and height of the TSS towers, I would say the chassis is a '93. Side panels and hood are definetly late '80s vintage.
 
Definately NOT an SX. Wrong hood etc.
SX had a wider ski stance, I think 43" is what mine was.
Had a 93 SX, nice nimble little sled.

The tunnel decals look "aftermarket" add ons IMHO.

The hood and side panels are easily changed after a crash. The ski center of the SX's is very close to 40" and wider than the plain Exciters. Notice the small gap between the panels and the T.S.S. holders. The T.S.S.'s are longer and above the the hood also, notice the bare aluminum ski knuckles and the flat slides of the SX !

Some photo's to compare !
