Do you guys know where to find the engine number on my 2001 model? This should be the one with VVT?
The redbook quotes 113kw where the older one had 108kw. But I on some parts there is the BP4W code, did they just use the same parts on this
engine or do I have it all wrong? The power did go up for the 2001 model right? Thanks

my understanding is that the nb8b (late 2000 on) used the same engine block, the extra power was from a revised head and variable valve timing or something.
