We have a thread going in the Club Honda Norway Forum about a VIN posted. We have checked three different VINs and they are all on the same format:
JHMNA11500T000xxx.
The digit before the T should be the letter M for 1991 according to the US VIN. We all have a 0.
I found this on the internet:
VIN:
field value description
country: J Japan
manufacturer: H Honda
make: M (invalid. must be: 4) - 4 is for US, M=2 dr coupe

body & transmission: 1 2-door manual
trim: 5 1991-1995 NSX Coupe with Manual Steering, Driver Airbag, Active Beltcheck
digit:0 invalid. should be 1 - this is the check digit and the check fails as there is an M in the third digit and not 4 as expected for US market,
model year: 0 invalid. must be: M,N,P,R,S,T,V,W,X,Y,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F - this is the field in question, is 0=1990 or EUDM 1991?
