Who Owns The Very Last S14 Produced?

[KiLLeR2001]

The last '98 S14 240sx produced is a black SE model, build date of 05/98, manual transmission with fogs and a moonroof, front lip and rear spoiler. ABS + VLSD. CAL. emissions. VIN#: JN1AS44D4WW107998

So who is the lucky winner?

edit:

Very first S14 240sx produced... JN1AS44D0SW-000005

The very first S14 240sx was produced 02/94. SE model. M/T transmission, cruise control and auto door locks.

Although the MIN# number doesn't seem to form the standard format so its possible this car was never sold to the public. If thats the case then...

JN1AS44D8SW-000012

This is most likely the first S14 240sx sold to the public. Produced 02/94. Color: #AL0 (Ruby Red Pearl). M/T. SE model with Spotlight map lamps, Fog lamps, Leather seats, Leather steering wheel and shift knob, power moonroof, ABS + VLSD.

[EsChassisLove]

Probably some kid that missiled it out and refers to his Kouki as a drift slut.

[holemilk00]

Mine was third from the last :(

[bc.]

I do, it has 220k miles, rust all over the frame rails and I will sell it to you for $20k

[KiwiZenki]

^^Glad we cleared this up :P

[drift freaq]

Get a carfax account and plug that vin in! That will at least narrow it down to particular city or region of the country the car is currently in.

[OrangeVirus1]

It was crashed and crushed late 2007.

[KiLLeR2001]

It was crashed and crushed late 2007.

Need some sort of confirmation bud.

[Rustys14]

Its not crushed, I just ran the vin since I'm board lol.

The last record of it was a title (new owner) in 2011 from a DMV in Mount Prospect, IL.

Judging by the report it's not in very good condition. It was declared a total loss by insurance in NC in 2007 but was issued a reconstructed title in Indiana in 2008. The registration should be up this year so we'll see if it gets renewed. It had 155,809 miles on it back when it was declared total loss so it would probably have around 200k miles now.

Based on those facts my guess would be that it's rotting in a junkyard somewhere unless the new owner is an enthusiast.

[holemilk00]

Ohhhhh, tell me the history of my car. Haha

[Rustys14]

^^^ give me your vin and I can run it real fast. You can PM it to me if you don't want to post it up.

where u getting this information, I would love to know about my car. lol

[rwtf]

me too lololol

[KiLLeR2001]

Oops! It appears I made a boo-boo. I thought since there was a low number of '98 models that they were all produced in late 1997, turns out not to be the case! I updated the original post with the new VIN#.

[Mishkin_707]

Wow makes me wonder about my car, all I know is its originally a Texas car sold new in August (I think) of 89, I had the paperwork from the original owner when I bought it it was all in the glove box when I bought it in 2001

[Rustys14]

me too lololol

I get them from autocheck since I have access to their database. If you shoot me a pm with your vin number I can try to run it for you. Just try not to inundate me with too many vins, I have a life lol.

Positive rep is encouraged but not required lol.

[OrangeVirus1]

Well I was half right... It was crashed. and 2007. I swear to god that was a total BS guess too hahahaha

[Rustys14]

Alright guys, just pulled the report for the real last one lol. Looks like it is still alive and kicking out in Montebello, Ca. Was actually just sold to a new owner last month as the last record was a new title on 03/22/13. It should still have fairly low miles too since it only had 107,906 miles during its last emission inspection back in 08. It hasn't had a reported emission inspection since then according to the report. I'm not entirely familiar with the laws out in Cali but I think that it should have a non op registration since emissions has not been done for a while. That leads me to believe that it has been turned into a track car or something by the last owner. Hopefully the new owner is an enthusiast and not some kid who is just going to drift it into a wall...

[EatSleepDriftS13]

Thats cool the last S14 is somewhere near my area, it would be nice to see it in prestine condition

[SuperBlackS14]

I am corroborating Rusty's story. That's cool it still seems to be running and driving!

[Flicktitty]

Thats pretty awesome, Any chance of finding the vin on the FIRST S13 made in the US?

PM me your VIN#. I highly doubt it was manufactured in 08/98.

edit:

zo0d, your car was manufactured in 05/98, paint code #AJ4 (red), Auto transmission and a CAL. emissions vehicle. It's number 107958 which is not the last car. The last car produced is 107998, so your car was 40 cars away from being the last.

[daftcon]

what about throwing in the first s14 built in the states? getting a picture of the first and last s14's built here would be badass.

[denian_cellphone]

this thread is interesting ahaha any idea of what the vin # of the first s14 would be?

[RoXiE.S14]

I'm a bit new to owning a vehicle (age 20, only have an s14 first ever ride!) and i had a question.. can anything be stolen via knowing someone's VIN on their car? stupid question i know lol.. thanks
if not, i would LOVE to know the history of my car! ty ty

There are big databases of vehicle vin numbers everywhere. Someone could forge your car's registration etc. but its not something they could not already do.

I just bought a 95 Ruby Red Pearl S14, SE model, MT, everything...but it is back in Illinois at my grandfathers shop so I don't have the VIN on hand. will have to get that today! lol

I can tell you that you just gave me an invalid VIN#. But your real VIN# is: JN1AS44DXWW107987.

This car is an S14 produced 05/98. Color: #AJ4 (Red). FED. emissions. M/T transmission. SE model with fog lamps, front lip, rear kouki spoiler.

[Okinawandrifter87]

Thanks! Man, When I picked it up it had everything minus the front lip.

[silviaks2nr]

I'm taking the initiative to bump this thread as there is an ongoing thread about s13 production and it peaked my interest. So something is curious to me that we don't consider when talking about the number of kouki s14s. Take the productions numbers below:


96 - 7334
97 - 3655
98 - 2178

I've heard conflicting remarks that these are production numbers for the particular year and that these are the numbers for each model year. Which is it? They can't be the number for each model year if 7998 is the last car according to killer. My car is a 98 model, 7/97 build date number 5454 This would mean there are more than 2178 98 model year cars if my car were 2543 from the last car produced.

Given that, these must be production numbers for that year. We have to consider that a lot of those cars in the 96 category were 97 models. This would mean there are a few thousand more cars than the ~6000 cars figure that gets thrown around everywhere.

[KiLLeR2001]

I'll look into the production numbers for '97 and '98 models. This will include cars from 07/96 to 06/98.

[KiLLeR2001]

Alright. The numbers are in!!!

USA Production Numbers:

Total 1997 Nissan 240sx produced: 3,682
Total 1998 Nissan 240sx produced: 2,792

Total number of '97-'98 models: 6,474

[silviaks2nr]

Total 1998 Nissan 240sx produced: 2,792

Now who's going to update the entire interwebs!?

Curious where you found this information by the way. I'd be interested to know if there's a way to break it down by SE, LE, Base, 5spd, etc. I know it's easy to decipher individual vins to determine but I wonder how many total we're talking.

[Future240]

It's nice to know I have one of 3682 cars. SE model.

[StatticMyke]

Awesome information. Keep it up. Still waiting for pics of the first and last!

[yomisiu]

i've got a 3/94 manual base model s14

[silviaks2nr]

I wish mine were an SE or LE! Then I could have the Ivory seats! I have all the other things at least- factory 5spd, no sunroof, 98

Pretty much taking the US VIN database file for 240sx and deciphering the individual unique VIN numbers. It gets much harder with trim types as I would have to manually enter every single VIN one by one and record the data. And with every VIN id have to run 10 variations of each to find the unique numerical value since it is random check digit...

So out of 6474 unique VINs, I would have to manually check 64740 different variations to find all of the VINs.

Aka, I'm willing to do it if you guys want to gather some funds up and donate to the cause because it will literally take up all my free time.

Edit:

I would be able to record how many A/T and M/T models there are. Base, SE, LE trims. How many FED vs CAL emissions etc.

[pancakes562]

This is a really cool thread! I know mine has been all up and down California and that's about it.

Eh, don't worry about it.

I've had a total of eight '97 and '98 S14's over the last few years.

There's still a few clean ones out there.

[KiLLeR2001]

Are you able to check of the 6474 that were originally sold about how many are still registered. I would be very interested in the attrition rate over 20 years...

That who be nice to know. I'm sure Base and LEs are more rare an SEs. When i was shopping from July - September 98 (in Orange County, CA) in saw total of 14 cars. 9 SEs, 4 LEs, and 1 Base. About half of them were manual. And that Base was hiding in the back-lot because they wanted to sell the more expensive models first. i still remember the salesman said "you're probably not going to like it, it has no radio, no sunroof, no power locks, no alarm, no abs, and hub cap wheels." And i bought it, that same day.

[EDacIouSX]

this is a cool thread. my zenki was built in march of 94 so seems like it's pretty early. by between feb and march they made about 6k s14s? Cause my s14 has a 7xxx production number on it i believe.

[jumpman2334]

not the last s14 produced, but semi related:
