Your blue tag, located on the firewall of your car gives all the build information of your vehicle, including, the make, model and transmission type your car came out of the factory with.

The first line is associated the the model of the car. This will usually be the chassis code.

For example. E-BNR32 - R32 GTR.

The fourth line is associated with the colour and trim of the car. The first 3 letters "326" is your paint code, and the last letter is the Trim code, depending on the spec of your interior. The majority of the skyline years had G trim.
