the USA style ones should fit I reckon? anyone know for sure?

Yeah, I had USA rear and USA Slimline front on my R33.

The USA fits really well where a Jap plate has come out of.

I got the slimline on the front so it didn't hang down in front of the intercooler. Still same width as std slim, but no "dot" between letters and numbers, same as USA full size.

YES YES YES.. go the SAU PLATES!!!

i wouldnt mind a japanese stye plate, then it woudlnt be cutting into my front bumper..

don't quote me on this but a mate told me it was "illegal" to trim your number plate to fit, however you could always bend the edges underneath the plate, supposably this isn't

trimming and bending are both defectable!

no they arent :)

Mate works for DOTARS and has trimmed his numberplate, letterbox style. As long as all the numbers and letters are complete, its legit.

Defect station guy once pointed out that my rear number plate was bent (they dont fit on s13s), then said "oh well, guess theres nothing you can do about it" and ignored it.

yes they are!

Just because DOTARS says its OK doesn't mean your not gonna get defected.

This has been explained in numerous threads, Dept Transports rules are not the same as Police rules.

And it doesn't matter how many people at Dept of Transport or where ever say its OK, if Mr Policeman says hes gonna defect you for it, he will, because he's the man with the defect tickets.

Still the ADR rule says visible at 45 degrees from 20 meters.

Yep and that is what I quote and I have a bent plate...

Plus this is what the police use as a test, and have seen it done personally...and I have never been booked, and have had the "boys" look it over... :rofl:

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.

      It's all about the socialisation of the dogs. In that first 8 to 16 weeks of age they need to be taught to be nice and friendly with everything. That way they generalise it to everything. That said, some days you'll just never beat genetics, but 99% of the time dogs chasing cats is purely lack of socialisation, and then the chasing part can turn into prey drive.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      I bench bled my HFM BM57 before installing, it leaked badly. Threw it in the bin, because I installed it 2 years after purchase.
