How to ID engine from VIN number

[racer33]

What is the VIN engine code on a 1991 Sentra that would tell me if it's a 2.0? I'm looking at VIN numbers from an upcomming auction and would like to know before I go. Hate to waste my time and find out they're all 1.6's.

For example: 1N4GB32H3PC836243

1N4=USDM/JN1=JDME=GA16DE/G=SR20DEB=Sentra/NX Coupe3=Model change (1-9)2=Body Type (1=4dr./2=2dr./4=Coupe/6=Coupe T-Bar)H=Restraint Sys. (A=Passive Belt 3pt. mech./P=Passive Belt 2pt. elec./C=Airbag+3pt. Belt Coupe/F=Airbag+2pt./H=Airbag+3pt. Sedan)3=Check DigitP=Model Year (M=91/N=92/P=93/R=94)C=Manufacture Plant (U=Zama/Z=Nissha Kyoto/C=NMM)836243=Vehicle Serial #

So in short, 1N4GB32 would be a SE-R.

Then this one must not even be a sentra:

jn1fu21p0mt308492. Looking a bit further down the list, that looks an awful lot like a VIN number of a Stanza. Ugh. Oh well, at least I'll know for the next time. Thanks for the help.
