In Taiwan, no EPC and no right to register/order elsewhere in the world. Quote from: floyd111 on 26 February 2015, 03:14 AMĪnd this is where the circle is round again. VIN-to-part-number relationship is not absolutely filtered and variable common sense is required. Installable EPCnet (suppliers not endorsed by this forum hence I will not mention them) will list the parts as per VIN. Paper manuals (big thick books with loads of images) usually start every chapter with "Standard" version (layman terms "RestOfTheWorld) and then expand for variants like "USA", "AUS", "S", "J", "I" etc where applicable. Quote from: djenka018 on 25 February 2015, 09:46 PM Worse even, the government back in the days was very incapable of registering similar cars in similar ways, so even if papers are all in order, papers may still not be complete, -or in order-Ĭan anyone check whether there are discrepancies here?
I am about to shell out a fortune purchasing car-specific restoration parts, and at this point, I need to be sure what to buy, and what not.Īny help would be much appreciated, for I have not found any source online to help me narrow things down.Īs a Taiwan resident, I am not even eligible to register for any EPC system abroad, and there is none available locally that I am aware of. I have 3 W116's, and in each case I need to investigate what numbers are real, and which ones are not.
Like I mentioned before on the forum, here in Taiwan one can never be sure whether any VIN, engine or chassis data is what it seems.įresh old imports are illegal and prices/pressure run high.
