I'm thinking of buying "FYN 33" this weekend, someone is selling them. What do you guys think about it? Just curious on people opinions and what it reads out to them.

Also, apparently these plates haven't been on a car for over 3 years now the lady who is selling them has just had them put away since she sold her R33. How do I go about registering it to my car? Once I get the plates are there any more costs? I'm in Queensland by the way.

Thanks in advance on everyone's opinion. :O

I guess that may be the only problem, with the police. I've done a bit to my car but it's all mainly looks, however I have done engine work (can't have all show and no go lol).

In saying that, the police would really want to get me for something if they wanted to fine me. Everything is legal on the car by Queensland laws at least anyhow.

had to read it twice to get it, its ok

not my style but i like to not attract any attention

Fair enough. I guess one of the reasons I would like to buy it is that there aren't many *** 33 or 33 *** plates available in Queensland that actually mean something, eg, QIK33, SIK33 etc.

If you didn't want any attention then you'd rather stay away from them.

I think it suits my car though, since I've got black and white interior, chrome rims, full bodykit etc so it is a pretty fine33 :(

i would want to have everything else done to the car already, and then win gold lotto to waste money on plates

especially ones that you have to think about to get their meaning

i read them wrong i though it was flying 33 not fine.

if u get them probably only use them for show use if u'r worryed about the cops. but i u say that u'r car is legal get a eng cert and then have the plates on then u shouldn't have any problems

so obvious what the plate say. seems to me sum people cant read?

not too bad. kinda fall into the catacorie of nvs plates tho.

anyone who wants nvs** or **nvs plates should be shot!

    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
    • How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP
    • I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use
    • I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
    • You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
