hi i just brought my s14 jdm front clip but it doesn't has a cluster on there so is there are any way i can tell how many miles it has on the car? and how can i tell if this s14 sr20det front clip is from the 95-96 early model or from the late 97-98 model? can i tell by checking the computer ,dash board ,transmisson or the engine?

hi you meant the metal plate in the engine bay or on the dash board?

CaoBoY · 06-23-2006, 12:54 AM

it doesnt have a vin, not one that you can trace...because its not a united states car.

97/98 is usually able to tell by:

if its 'ribbed' on the front cover (below valve cover): 97/98
if the ECU is "WC" its zenki
if its "NA" its kouki

those are probably the easiest and quickest ways to tell

as far as mileage goes. your SOL on that. just hope its relatively low
the 35k mileage thing people claim motors have its BS

Dousan_PG · 06-23-2006, 01:30 AM

but really nothing but wiring
nothing for the most part that woul affect powre or anything. its basically the same motor.

dousan is dead on. Those are the two ways two tell. The earlier model zenki had the same s13 maf plug type. And the kouki had the hump plug used on most 96-98 Nissans. It really does'nt matter, they are both the same engines.

Nissangtrpower · 06-23-2006, 02:19 AM

i see , because i have bought a s14 front clip before and the engine wasn't that good and it was from a 95-96 model because it still has the fenders on the clip so i can tell,and i just want to be more caution this time before getting it, because i haven't pick up the clip yet. also is 3380$ a good prices for the front clip? how can i tell if the engine is in good condition? what compression ratio it should has? thanks for any help.
