So I got a bit bored and figured i'd check if most of my SE features on my 1995 were factory or just someone who added them on.

I used this site and got just about every detail I could ask for - http://garage.projectraine.com/content_ ... mid01.html (everything on the car is factory)

but then I hit a confusing bit, it seems my model number points to my car being a cali model. Now, this isn't a big deal since s14s have the same ECU regardless, but i followed it a bit further and pulled up my vehicle history report. My car was sold a few towns away in 1995 (leased at dealership), and just about every owner was within a 50 mile radius of me.

How exactly did a cali only model get sold as a fed.?? :confused:

Maybe it had options/colors that a customer requested, so the re-routed it's delivery?

Just thought I'd add in on this, my 95 SE was originally from California, and wound up with me in NY.
