I honestly don't know. The only 80's series I've seen that I didn't hate was Liveman, which I dropped about 10 episodes in. Despite my overall boredom with it, I hear it's one of the best and definitely worth watching (So I'm planning on trying again...Eventually).
The only other 80's series I've seen is Sun Vulcan, which I can basically surmise as "Nothing Happens: The Sentai." (Though I do hear things get bearable once the second VulEagle appears about 20 episodes in)

Well, I haven't really watched much in terms of pre-90s sentai. A couple of episodes of Goranger, JAKQ, and Battle Fever J, just to see where the series came from, but other than that the earliest i've seen is Jetman. I'm okay with the old effects and everything, but the 90s is when a lot of things I liked started to happen, such as 6th rangers and better mech fights/suits. So my question is: what are the defining features of 80s Sentai that sets it apart from the other decades? What does it have that newer Sentai lacks?

I think i'm gonna check that series out soon.

A lot of people swear by Liveman's quality, so I would definitely agree that if you're looking for a good series, go with Liveman.
I would also recommend checking out Sun Vulcan, simply because I enjoy seeing people try to pluck out the good points in it

You know how I am. If there's no CGI then what will there be for me to complain about?

Okay this may have been answered but I need to ask for myself. Why the heck do you hate CGI so much?

Everybody is grilling me on it in the CGI vs Practical topic, so go there if you want a deeper explanation. But what it comes down to is that I love practical effects in shows, movies, etc. and the whole reason I got into toku was because of the practical effects.
