S13 VIN location

Heya guys,

before you read my post, I did search online & on the forums for a solution. I did manage to find some information, but I thought I'd rather get up to date information.

I'm looking at buying a S13 very soon, but when I went to look at the car, we couldn't find the VIN number.
I went online to have a look at where the possible mounting spots are, but everywhere we looked we just couldn't find it.

There is a plate on the firewall under the front window, on the driver's side, which has a very long (I think 16/17 digit) code, with the car's weight etc underneath that number.
The number matches with the engraved number on the chassis. I believe the last 8 digits to be the VIN number, but I forgot to match that with the papers.. Yes I'm an idiot.

Please could anyone shed some light on this for me. The car is neat and very well looked after, I would hate for something like this to scare me off from not buying it,
granted everything else is in order.

Thanks!

That whole number is the Vin number.

Thanks, that's what I was thinking. I'm going to have a look again tomorrow, and hopefully the numbers all add up.

Vehicle purchased and all went well.

I'm SUPER happy with the SX, I've driven it about 150km now, and I just keep getting more impressed with its capabilities.
