Hello!! I'm new!! I'm from Poland and I'm lived in Gdynia. I'm really sorry if I will have problems with my English.

I have a Corolla from 1989 (1.8 D) and I want to know when it was produced. (In wchich month?). In this year there was 2 versions (for Europe) and I don't know wchich is mine. I was trying by identify my VIN number, but there is no information. Maybe somebody schould help me?

My VIN: JT1EOCE9000032125

I dont know much about other Corollas, Mine is an '81 but I would recommend popping your hood and looking in the back of the engine bay and There might be a Sign or metal post, identifying Engine, Model and yadda-yadda-yadda all on there, or well at least tehre is for me.... GOOD LUCK!

your car is it equipped with a diesel engine? cause the "c" letter from "ce90" seems like your car equipped a 1C diesil engine.

maybe this can help you out???

Once whose told me that by this programm I should try to find when my corolla was produced, but I don't know how :-(

CE90, those diesel corollas are pretty beefy really.. 1.8liter diesel, but is yours a 1C-T?
If not, get a turbocharger, intercooler and adjust the pressure of the diesel injection a bit higher and you have a corolla that will run high 13's on the quartermile... Been done by a fellow in fintoys
