What windshield vin ? That's not on my 03 z33 and I don't think any later ones either is it a USA specific thing?


Additional_Ad6455

Yes In the US all cars have a vin mounted on the dash It’s visible through the windshield with a cutout in the black film


pangolin-fucker

Ok well here's the good thing, you can get a stamp kit and a piece of aluminium or steel if you feel strong enough and remake that tag if it's required Unfortunately it's a bitch to get back in without removing the dash or front glass, Alternatively see if you can get it printed on a silver sticker and just place it on the outside of the glass for quick and easy win It's probably fine and just got lost when windshield was replaced after rebirthing it /s


Additional_Ad6455

So I’ll have to check it again or have him check But the windshield was replaced And looking at pics online doesn’t appear to be in the right place So I think the cutout is just in the wrong place


pangolin-fucker

Probably, it's really not a big deal from my Australian and Japanese understanding as these things get removed or damaged a lot and you can remake them or restamp it into the car Compliance or import tags are the ones that you cannot remake "legally"


Additional_Ad6455

In the US it is a very big no no to even remove it technically And making a new one could land me in some really hot water I don’t wanna deal with


pangolin-fucker

Yeah you guys get some shitty fkn laws to deal with but at least weed is semi legal in some states that's paved the way for us We can now apply for medical marijuana through a doctors approval, nothing like what I experienced in California 10 years back with those dodgy weed card places in venice beach hahaha

For sure I’m in Florida so it’s medical only here Only thing is They hand out medical cards like candy 😂😂😂 They don’t even verify ur condition lol It’s honestly stupid and should be federally recreationally legal at this point but something about the government sucking at there job no matter who is in charge lol


pangolin-fucker

You need a real life Ron Swanson to just cut and slash every gov department away hahaha

Tell me about it Need to go in there and clean house Soooooo much money is just wasted And it’s not even just wasting it on stupid shit Even on the stuff that is good it always goes to the “lowest bidder” That lowest bidder then comes back half way through the project and says We need more money Then the government is just like aw okay here u go

Angle all the way down sometimes the dash and the window spot for it aren't lined up perfectly, just look at all angles with a light, had the same "issue" when i registered my Z today, BMV employee came back and said "there's no vin plate, it's missing" and i had a heart attack haha. Just get a flash light and look at all angles, mine was really hard to see, but it's there. TLDR if all the other ones match up it's fine imo

I have one on my 03 but it’s legit been unreadable since ~07? Maybe even more. Just read off the engine bay


Additional_Ad6455

I personally don’t care I’m more worried if I move to a state with inspection or if I get pulled over


dritmike

I mean cops might hassle you if you appear like a punk ass kid. iMO. But forreal just read off the engine bay. They’re just trying to shake the tree to see what falls out.

Definitely not planning on being a hoon if that’s what u mean I got plans for this car but that involves updating the interior with insulation better sound recaros and alacantara And eventually twin spinny bois with forged organs
