Chassis Codes....how to read? - Click HERE for Original Thread

TheNeonEdge
Just wondering, How would you be able to tell the year/month of manufacture from the JDM chassis codes?
Looking for my new vehicle:

JZS147-0004424

what would this be?!! any help or links would be handy!

Thanks

Edit: No idea. They're the same thing.

Nope, 1992 Toyota Aristo V

But I'm trying to figure out the month of manufacture!

Your exporter/importer should be able to find out, if not they suck. It's already 15 years old, Nov/1991.

Seriously? It was first registered Aug 1992..

Is there a link to find out? I dont want to buy the vehicle then be screwed! I want to see how to do it for myself.


Thanks,
John

The ViN you supplied is not the complete VIN

Here's the break down to tell the year of Manufacture:
10th character in a stadard Vin from the left

1980 A
1981 B
1982 C
1983 D
1984 E
1985 F
1986 G
1987 H
1988 J
1989 K
1990 L
1991 M
1992 N
1993 P
1994 R
1995 S
1996 T
1997 V
1998 W
1999 X
2000 Y
2001 1
2002 2
etc
2007 7

Cheers As for the Month of Manufacture it is stamped or a sticker on the Drivers door sill, under the hood and various other places. If those stickers were removed, Buyer beware.

Hope this helps

:cool:

He has a JDM Chassis code totally different than a USDM Vin number, also JDM cars don't have the month of manufacture stamped on the door sill or under the hood like here.

So any links!?!?!?
