How do I find out what year my ITR is?
I have been bored at work today and I have always wondered if there was a for sure way to tell what year my jdm itr is? It is def a 98 spec, but thats all I know. If anyone is in Japan and can call a dealership there that would be cool too. Everything I can find on here is a dead end. Any help would be much appreciated!
The jdm "vin" is DC2-1301104.

Re: How do I find out what year my ITR is?
If you still have the chassis, the year is usually stamped on the driver side shock tower.....in an EK. Might be there for the DC.
For instance, I have a 96 model year (USDM) EK and the stamp says 95.

If you actually READ the article, you'll see it tells how to read a VIN on a car that is manufactured in Japan for sale in the North American or European market, not a JDM (Japanese domestic market) vehicle.

Re: How do I find out what year my ITR is?
I don't have the blue vin plate, just the firewall vin. I read that article already about the vin numbers. I'm thinking there has to be a vin identification of some sort. I mean how does a dealership over there know what year vehicle a customer brings in when they want work done?

Re: How do I find out what year my ITR is?
I know that you said you dont have the blue vin tag, but to help out other people that might have a blue vin tag so they know what their integra is example sir-g or real itr and which time of year it was produced.
http://www.auto-japanese.com/catalog...&model=INTEGRA
For example: One of my jdm fronts has a blue vin tag that says GF-DB8, I take that and search in the web site and it came out that its a 1999.7 Integra SIR-G
EDIT: I just could not let this go, and had to figure it all out.
After going over all the jdm fronts that I have had (I think 8 or 9 now) and their vin numbers and such and doing some more research. I stumbled upon this very old thread on honda-tech and I can say that I believe that the OP is dead on when I compare his findings to my vins when I compare them to the site above.

I can conclude that your vehicle is a 1998 Integra Type-R

Re: How do I find out what year my ITR is?
Ok found out some new info from a friend in japan who belongs to some of the honda forums over there. DC2-1301104 VIN can be broken down as follows, its a 130 series of the type r. then the japanese imperial year Heisei 11 and the 04 was the month so april. That is what i was told so I think that my car is a 99 that was made in april.
