Yup, hard to tell unless you are in the know.
What under my hood isn't a good indication though. B16 isn't factory in the GS-R Thusee has a real GS-R motor.

also the 92-93 gsr if you look @ the vin it has to have 238 in the vin # so you can still tell if the car came with the b17a or it has been swapped

i originaly was going to buy a gsr made deals on 2 black 1's but both buyer backed out. every time i see a gsr i make sure to check the vin

Chassis code is DB2, it's in the VIN.

that should def. help new buyers IMO

didnt know vin would have such details and people dont usually check the vin anything other than the accidents or leans etc.

Vin contains a lot of information if you know how to read it.

However, vins can be swapped out and it is not unheard of for a car to have it's vin changed for whatever reason. It is however illegal to change the vin IIRC.

hmm...nicee...will look into it and read a little about it
but people swap out the vin's for change of ownership to hide history perhaps?
or maybe accidents and stuff?



ps. sorry OP no intentions to jack your thread loll

haha is all good
ppl change vin's for cheaper insurance to ... u no register a gs-r as an RS :P

time for a new makeover
