That's the engine model. The chassis code would be like J30 (3rd gen), A32 (4th gen), or A33 (5th gen).

PS - The VG30E was not used in the 1st gens until the last year, before that they used 2.4L I6 gas engines or 2.8L I6 diesels.

Actually, they never used the VG30E engine in the 1st gens. It was introduced into the Maxima for the 2nd generation model, in 1985.
