[Garagegoon]

Im just getting started compiling all the info for my car. Where do I go to find build dates based on prod number and paint codes and all thet great stuff. Are there books or web sites?

Nissan didn't keep records on this. The build date (month/year) should be on the driver side door jamb tag. The original paint code tag is on the top of the radiator support just in front of the radiator and towards the right side of the car. If your car has been repainted and the sticker is missing it's quite unlikely that a previous paint job would have been so thorough as to hide all of the original paint. Places to look: up under the dashboard at the top of the firewall, the bottom side of the tool bin doors, on top of the transmission tunnel under the removable ash tray. There were a limited number of colors available so original paint in any of those places will allow a quick determination of the paint code.
