| Post subject: | VIN Plate: What do the numbers mean ? |
I found this thread quite helpful. http://www.auszookers.com/index.php?nam ... =vin+plate But can some one explain what the numbers are on my plate... ....................SUZUKI MOTOR CO.,LTD. ....... What is the 8 digit number embossed here? .........17 Digit chassis number embossed here ......................................... 1330 kg ......................................... 2430 kg .......................................1 - 530 kg .......................................1 - 800 kg .......TYPE....SJ50V ....................COLOR...13P ....ENGINE....G13A I also have no idea what & how the weights "measure" up In the picture the Chassis number has been covered by "carpaintwizzard" So what's the number above it ? |

I know that the chassis # is the car's code, Eg SJ XXX + birthday and what number it was when it rolled off the production line. |

I have access to a "dealer lookup tool" - PM me the VIN and I'll let you know what it says. It should work for Australian market vehicles - it does NOT work for used Japanese imports. |

The Aus Standards compliance plate will be different. This plate that you are asking, will be from where the car was made. Jap land maybe. My 88'sierra has about 12 different standards on the plate. My 00' jim had 2 letters for aus compliance. |
