Yeh its not that easy because there are sooo many different options. Your particular car has the following:

Character 12 for your VIN is 'D' and I'm not sure of its significance. On 33's this character can be either D or Z

Character 13 for your VIN is 'A' and again I'm not sure of its significance. Appears to be on all 33's

Characters 14-18 relate to options available for your car.

Char 14 relates to Super Hard Coat (S.H.C) (basically an optional paint protection)

Char 15 relates to a rear wiper

Char 16 relates to different trim and type M and 40th Anniversary

Char 17 relates to remote central locking

Char 18 relates to Viscous LSD + ABS 40th anniversary stitching on seats

This is a very rough translation, so if anyone wants to double-check me please do so!! :)

ta muchly. ok i've just read this whole frickin thread (yes im an idiot) and have managed to figure out most of my model no. as follows

G = 2 Door coupe

GK = RB25DET

B = 2WD

R = ??

T = GTS25t (type M)

A = Auto

R33 = R33

V = Turbo

D = ??

A = ??

- = ??

U = ??

- = ??

- = ??

- = ??

does any one know what the last 7 digits stand for?

Character 12 for your VIN is 'D' and I'm not sure of its significance. On 33's this character can be either D or Z

Character 13 for your VIN is 'A' and again I'm not sure of its significance. Appears to be on all 33's

Characters 14-18 relate to options available for your car. Where there is a dash (ie -), this means no option was selected for your car.

If you post up your ECR33 number I can have a look at your options page and translation for ‘U’ can be attempted. :)

EDIT: I just read further up and I spotted your ECR33 number (d'oh to me)...I'll check it out when I get home :P

OK Basti, here's a screen shot of your options page :huh:

post-24887-1163721520.jpg

As you can see there is no text for characters 14, 16, 17 or 18, which matches with the dashes (ie -) in my above post.

Character 15 makes references to a rear wiper, different rear spoiler (not 100% but could relate to the S2 spoiler, as yours is a 1.5??) and aeroform bumper.

Anyone want to double-check the translation please?

I just had the text translated by someone who has no idea about cars and this is what he came up with.

14. Super Hard Coat

15. Rear wiper

16. Trunk Lid Rim + Type M 40th Anniversary

17. Remote Controlled Entry

18. Viscous LSD + ABS + Two Special 40th Anniversary Seats

So i guess you were pretty spot on with your translation :P

Have you got any Japanese interpretation of characters 12 & 13 from FAST, so I can get that translated as well?

Characters 12 and 13 appear in "kanji" so more difficult to interpret. Refer screen shot below (which is your VIN):

I have been able to work out what character 12 is though. 'D' means "domestic", so I'm assuming 'Z' is also domestic, but more specific due to the info contained within the brackets. This could even be a local dialect, but I'm not sure.

I have not been able to work out character 13. If your contact can translate, please let us know what it means :(

This is what they came back with:

国内 【こくない】 (n) internal, domestic, (P)

寒冷地 【かんれいち】 (n) cold (northern) district

標準 【ひょうじゅん】 (n) standard, level, (P)

    • The 4WD version is harder to find so I compared the parts diagrams of the two https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/whc34/5414-rb20de/engine/172/17453/ and https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/wgnc34/287-rb26dett/engine/172/17201/ seems like the same part is called out: 17201...what with WHC34 tank work?
    • Thanks man, car is registered! Time to enjoy it. But if anyone has questions let me know happy to help others avoid my pitfalls.  
    • 2.8L Stroked S1 RB25 Fully built block (Spool&CP) and head (Ferrea & Kelford 272's). Hydro lifters.  Precision 6466 Gen2 1.00 T4 Divided. 2x 40mm Turbosmart open dump gates.  DW 1200cc injectors 2x AEM 320LPH Pumps Haltech Elite 2500, IC7, WB1, TC8, Etc.  4" Downpipe, 3.5" Catback.  94AKI (101.5ron) Pump gas + WMI (2x 1000cc nozzles) 463rwkws @ 27psi on a mustang roller dyno. 
    • I finally got it on the dyno today and luckily it stayed in one piece! It wasn't without its dramas though. First off, sent my power steering belt to the moon around the third pull. Scared me half to death. Tuner laughed and mentioned that often happens with RB's... I may need to look into adding the Ross power steering idler, or something a long those lines.  Second issue that came up was about 2 hours in, we realized the VCT wasn't working and had to go back through the timing and knock threshold once it was fixed (I had botched setting up VCT). That waisted a good hour or so. I was surprised to see that with VCT working, we saw a ~38rwkw difference across the powerband. More then I would of expected.  Without further ado, made 463rwkw@27psi. Not the numbers I originally set out after, but still more then enough to kill myself and I'm very happy. Mustang roller dyno's are known to be heart breakers compared to other dyno's. Two things that limited me, first was the hydraulic lifters/7600rpm cut. Tuner was adamant that I was losing out on a lot of power up top because of it. Second was the pump gas & WMI. He wasn't 100% comfortable tuning with WMI, and was honest about it. He stated he's more confident on E85/Race gas. I look at this as a positive as it leaves me a lot of room for improvement. All in all, very happy! I need to see what I can do about that rev limiter... I use to rev my stock RB20 to 8000rpm and now I have a fully built head that I only rev to 7600... It's bugging me.  Don't mind my fantastic picture/filming skills.  RB28 - Dyno (1).mp4
