Check Hmotorsonline ... call them up ask for steve... tell him your scenario and give him an email address or a fax number he can emaikl you or fax you proof that JDM motors do not have vin's... i had an issue like that also tell the cops to look at the front of the block above the opil pan to see if theres even rivet holes there. No rivet holes equals no vin plate on th block becuasse it is JDM B16A .. as far as the trans ... get a picture of a trans with the sticker with the bar code on it and show them that BUT trannies come with vin tags unless once again JDM..

 

Take it to ur local DMV and let them inspect the motor plus tranny tell him its a JDM and explain..... those vins always fall off thats what they told me...they fill out a form have them sigh and give to u..u could use that in court....they cant trace a jdm motor for being stolen unless the original owner has the paper work from the shop he got it from and reported it stolen..
