Retiring from the PBA in 1984 after 10 straight seasons, the former Green Archer return to action in the 1986 All-Filipino Conference with Manila Beer and played in all of their nine games. In his disappointing comeback with the Brewmasters, Lim could only sank a dismal eight-of-20 from the floor.

Lim was the Beermen's top scorer in the first two conferences of the 1983 season. He moved to Crispa in his 10th year as a pro, getting an opportunity to play for the winningest ballclub and won a championship with the Redmanizers.

He was traded to U/Tex Wranglers after the first conference of the 1976 season. As a wrangler, Lim won two PBA championships both in the Open Conference, first in 1978 and again in 1980 with Bogs Adornado as his teammate. After seven seasons with U/Tex from 1976-1982, Lim found himself being traded to San Miguel Beermen for Alex Tan prior to the start of the 1982 Third Conference.

In 1975, when he started playing in the newly created PBA (Philippine Basketball Association), the Federation of Filipino-Chinese Chamber of Commerce quickly awarded him as one of the four Most Outstanding Youth in the Chinese Filipino community.

Continually playing in professional basketball from 1975 to 1986, he was one of the few Chinese Filipino athletes in the Philippines to be recognized as a superstar athlete and have inspired many youths to follow his footsteps.

As a reward for winning the 1974 NCAA men's basketball championship, Br. Connon declared that his jersey number (#14) would be retired. In 1998, he was inducted into the DLSAA Sports Hall of Fame.

Lim played for the De La Salle Green Archers from 1971 to 1974. In his rookie year, the Green Archers, led by himself and Mike Bilbao, won the 1971 NCAA men's basketball championship which was La Salle's first NCAA title in 15 years. Lim, who stood at 5'11 barefoot, was a deadly scorer that could single-handedly changed the complexion of a game. By the time he was a junior in 1973, he was getting various offers from teams in the MICAA. However, Lim opted to stay for one more year upon the proddings of the late Br. Gabriel Connon, the president of De La Salle College, promising that he would be getting something special in return. So for the final time, he suited up for the Green Archers. In his senior year, he averaged 32 points per outing in the 1974 season and set a single game record for the most points (men's basketball), which is 55 - a record which stands to this day. He was adjudged the Most Popular NCAA Player, was cast into the Mythical Five, received the Sportsmanship Award and ultimately won the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award. To cap his stellar collegiate career, he steered the Green Archers to the 1974 championship.

He joined China Bank in Manila, in 1970, to play in the inter-bank tournament and won the championship trophy.

He married his wife Eleanor, a graduate of the Immaculate Conception Academy, in the late 1970s. His children have all gone to work for some of the largest conglomerates in the banking and telecommunication industries. Bryan (born 1981) works for RCBC, Erin (born 1988) is under BDO, and Ervin (born 1989) is stationed at Nokia.

Lim started playing for Chiang Kai Shek College in 1968. With the help of his elder brother, he was recruited to its high school varsity squad where he led the team three consecutive championships. His team often travelled to Taipei, Taiwan each year to play for an invitational basketball tournament, where his shooting skills earned him great reputation among the Taiwanese youth. During his senior year after leading his school team to the championships for the third consecutive year, he was awarded the Most Outstanding Varsity Player by the school principal.
