i know a few people that didn't get the red stitch booting in their R... i wonder if the previous owner swapped it
mine doesnt have it either (and for the interior concerning everything is still stock)

For a Type R, the first 8 digits will be:
JH4DC231

The "DC2" part represents a B18C engine, but doesn't specify B18C1 or B18C5.
The 1 at the end means Type R, if its a 4 in that 8th spot, it's an RS, a 5 means an LS, a 6 means a GS or an SE, an 8 means GSR and a 9 means a GSR with leather.
good info :thumbs up

DC2 does not represent a B18C engine, it represents the chassis of the car
The DC2 chassis is also the only Integra chassis to come with a B18C motor

integrayean said:
only gs-r and type Rs come in DC2s
because they have B18C motors

swapping in a type R or gs-r motor into a DC4 doesnt make your car a DC2
:smackself oh great now you tell me :lol:

If only I had made the decoder a while ago some of these arguements wouldnt have happened.

no usdm type r or any other 94-01integra for that matter comes stock with the red stitched boot, only the jdm type r (not sure if the european did or not) came with them, now you know & knowing is half the battle, lol. :lol:

^^yes it does go into the how to section and read the vin decoding article it says it right in there
DC2 actually IS the chassis code though. ;) Just like EJ8 (6th gen Civic EX coupe and sedan) and EK9 (6th gen Civic Type R hatch). I have a huge chassis list I've been making for awhile. It's posted on CC already (at least what I have so far).

Oh, and I haven't seen the VIN decoder here, but a lot of them are wrong. I have some from Honda that are correct at least. i think they're mostly for Civics though. Maybe I can get more of them sometime later.
