Hey there

When i got my GT-Four RC i always wondered what number of 5000 it was. Well i have a few contacts in Toyota and i thought i would ask them if it was possible to find out. And i guess it is!!!!! :shock: :D

So apparently mine is number 515 :D

Once i work out/find out how they got that ill reveal it to you all muahah :shoots: :D

Your VIN or something doesn't end with 515 does it? 'Cause those are not connected.. How did they check it? :)

No numbers that i supplied them have 515 in them. I have asked them how they got the number. Im guessing its most likely the information was pulled from a database or something.

I will let you know what they say.

Hi Ryan

I'd be keen to know :) as I thought it had something to do with the Chassis # but Meurz had showed me they wern't :oops: .

I wanted to know so I too could get some replica emblems made up for our Beasties :D :D .

Cheers, Mark

On the driver side door is an info. sticker, I believe the number is on that.
Mine says #275, I could be wrong though.

I dont think the door stickers would be accurate but i could be wrong. I gave Toyota my frame number and they were able to give me the information about my RC from that.

The RC/CS/Grp A's were built from VIN# 15,000 to 20,000 so for you guys, just minus 15, 000 and voila! That's your limited edition #.

thats not correct according to my investigations.

vin 17091 = CS#2691 (14400 being the difference)

Stingers RC doesn't follow that trend either.... ( i will let him publish his chassis number should he wish to do so)




If people are willing to publish their CS/RC/GrpA build number vs chassis number it might help clarrify...


example >>> GrpA #80 = 16102

Edit:

just been talking to the CS owners on gt4oc. The plaque numbers were not allocated sequentially. CS#2606 + CS#2607 are both red UK CS models, but the VIN / chassis numbers are not sequential.


The EPC would also suggest that CS/RC/GrpA (grade TB4WA) production started with chassis number 15446.

Wrong. Mine's above 20,000 for instance and the CS number doesn't relate in any way with my VIN.

With Ryan's info/contact I was able to find out our two cars are #119 & 532 :) out of the 1500 units made for the JDM, however they wern't able to confirm if those were the build numbers out of the 5000 :shrug: .

These numbers bear no resemblance to the chassis/frame number on the vehicles ID plate on the firewall.

Anyone out there who can sort the mess out? :cry:

Thats what i thought; but i guess Toyota would know right? They told me mine is 515/1500 of the "RC" builds. Maybe this is not the xxxx of 5000 :shoots:

There are 1800 RC's built. The RC has the same numbered plaque as the CS and are numbered as xxxx•5000. The Grp A Rallye had a separate numbered plaque.
