no vin plate is the only way

and just for general info, no JDM engines have VIN numbers, thats a US thing.

Don't you guys just mean VINs?

Kinda annoying in the same way it is when people say RPMS, when it's always only RPM.

I've seen that on a stolen GSR tranny. I don't know if he drilled it out but it looks exactly like a JDM tranny with holes where the VIN is suppose to be.
