Japanese Nashbar frames and serial numbers

I have read that Shogun made the 80's Nashbar steel road frames with the "Triple Triangle" design. I picked this up today and was wondering if anyone would recognize the layout of the serial number. The frame is Japan made with Suntour Pro dropouts and very nice lugs.

Minty fresh. Looks like a keeper. Those lugs do not look familiar to me. Maybe someone else has some info.

Those frames were made by Maruishi. I have one of the touring frames. I don't have serial number information. It looks like you have some dealer-stamped numbers as well.
