Help with transmission number. Euro models.

[BITeR]

I did an inspection on a 1991 NSX, and used the FAQ section on the snap ring issue to se if it was in the range.

This is a 1991 red/black Honda NSX, Europe version, originally sold in Germany.
I found the label, but it had a different format than listed here on Prime: "NSX trensmission in snap ring: J4A4-1003542 --> J4A4-1005978"

Now, the one I found was: BJ4 32107 SLO J403
then some bar codes, and in small writing below that:
BJ4954Z0475

What the hell?? Is this the transmission number or did I locate the label wrong.
Help please! The number was right where the Prime directions told me, a white plastic/paper looking thing fastened to some wires. If this is the wrong location, can anyone post a picture on where to really look?

Thanks

Biter,

I have even seen a different format in the US!! In the US, I consider it "out of range" but remember the TSB is a US service bulletin. I am not sure it is valid RoW.

Sorry I cannot be of more help.

I think I'm looking at the wrong number, as suggested here:

Now, is it possible to take a photo of this "place I can't find" and post it? ) Would be useful for the FAQ too.

Thanks

I believe the same transmission number sequence was used worldwide, so that transmissions in that range were originally installed in NSXs for all world markets. And transmissions with a serial number that isn't in that range, or even in that format, are not considered in the snap ring range.

I don't know anything about this particular number.

The secret to finding the transmission number is to look at just exactly the right angle, with sufficient lighting. Hopefully someone can post a photo.

I made a quick picture for you.
It is actually located really deep far, far away........
Mine is quiet visible, but thats because the whole thing was cleaned when my tranny was done.

Hey, this picture is GREAT. Now I know exactly where to look.
Should be in the FAQ maybe??

Thanks again )
