VIN numbers - Miata/Eunos

May 13, 2004 2 Replies

Hi,



I understand that the Miata VIN numbers are not quite the same as the Eunos Roadster VIN numbers?



I am looking for a new engine as my Eunos Roadster has the infamous short-nose crank problem, but am getting confused about the VIN numbers. Miata.net informs me that I need VIN numbers of 209447 or above to be safe, yet most Eunos Roadster VIN numbers seem to start with 127*** .



Can anyone shed any light? What is the vital breakpoint of the Eunos Roadster cars?



Many thanks!


I am pretty sure that VIN's were the same. Eunos roadsters my have been built before the North American models hence the lower VIN? Find yourself a JDM 1.6 from a 92 or a 93.
