Post facelift(92-94) should be h4, thats what my 93 is, I don't know the other numbers for the headlight bulbs and for the record the bulbs are dual filiment, just so you know. :)

Which ones put out more light, or are they similar enough that it comes down to the headlight beam pattern?

The bulb & beam pattern kind of go hand-in-hand.

The 9004 bulbs suck ass.
