Plugged my Car's VIN number into the system and got this...

KRCR32.... etc

Now I know the K in the S13's meant Hatchback, but I don't think it applies here.

However with the KPGC10's the K stood for coupe and the C stood for extended wheelbase.

Also in HCR32 the H stood for 2.0L, the C stood for HICAS.

so does anyone have any idea what the characters represent?

Anyone wanna fill in the Gaps?

cheers strutto :)

thanks for trying anyway funky

No probs... Anyone else want theirs done? Post it up...

It seems to be a little picky so I'm not suprised it didn't work for Funky...

Now all we need is for someone to decode / translate the following...

EDIT... shitty picture removed...

I'm looking in your direction Funky :D

meep, how'd that work for you, did you put inECR33 and the rest in the other field?

Yep... Like I said, it acts a bit funny... It originally didnt work for mine either, would only show the build date... Then I entered in Gregs and it worked... Tried mine again and hey presto...

Mmm... its just a screen cap of what I see... Any suggestions on how to get it to display the original jap chars?
d/l the IME Japanese language pack from Microsoft... thats if you don't have it already?

hmm... could be tricky. i think you will need to download japanese language support/character display for your computer. can probably download it from microsoft but not sure. what program are u using? is it web-based? if its web based then its easy once u've downloaded the japanese language support (View>Encoding>Japanese)

i think this is the sort of thing shan might know?

EDIT: ^^what rezz said :)

Mmmm... d/l'ing the Jap IME now... I can see the Jap chars under Rezz's username without it installed... Not sure if this will help... :)

The program is Nissan FAST... It's not web based at all... Funny thing is, most of the program is in english, it's just a few areas that come up in jibberish...

Adrian did you download ALL the files or just the 'b' rars?

Matt I downloaded all the files but I only have 5 CD's set up... A1, A2, A3, B1, B2... I didn't bother with the EL's, ER's, GL's and GR's...

Are you having trouble getting it working? It's a bitch of a program...

K on s13's doesnt mean coupe or hatchback.

Without being TOO specific, the Q and K's s13s usually relate to the performance package.

Silvia Q's = sr20de engine, not as decent brakes & suspension

Silvia K's = sr20det (turbo) engine, decent brakes & suspension plus an extra scoop on the front bar for the intercooler, etc

Though i've been told my K's has J's headlights (the square ones) which are the desired lights.

I dare say its different for lines :)

    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
    • Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy. 
    • I can't speak for the US, but for Canada as I mentioned above, all fuel gases contain ethanol. We have regulations for E5/E10/E15. Each province handles it differently but basically any fuel gases sold must be E10 and slowly increasing to E15 by a certain year.
