Guys and girls

I'm looking to sell my 32 gtr soon and wondering if plates are worth selling separately?

Ive got RRR 032 in the old non logo style in black and white - no yearly fees like a custom plate, etc....

guess im just getting an idea if people would be interested in them and what they'd be willing to pay.....?

cheers

Tom

IMO paying for plates is gay as .... how people think they can sell something they got for free is beyond me, as are the stupid people who actually pay for them.

I think you will find something like 1% of all plates advertised for sale actually sell at all .... and really they are only the ones with '8' in them, as some Asians are highly superstitous.

If I remember correctly the previous owner of 'Skyline' couldn't sell the plates at all so just let them lapse and effectively handed them back into Transport SA - where the current owner got them for the cost of the plates, and is now trying to sell them for a profit. No offense intended - just an observation, and feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

IMHO it is fair to pay someone a small sum to reimburse them for originally buying the plate - beyond that is a bit of a joke to me. Everyone is different though I suppose ....

Mine are RBB 033 so they are RnS series and they cost me 70 or 90 bucks!!! Id say thats about all you could sell them for! and thats if someone would pay for them! would only save them waiting for them to become available again or they could choose something different! But yeh im hearing ya Andrew! I used to have "Deluxe" and have since seen them on a Rx3! Some chick got them after i just let them have them back! And have since seen her BF trying to sell them for a grand or something and thought you D#%K but if some other D#@K bought them for that price then he/she are worse than the seller!

As in the model of the car.... R32....?

what's RRR 032?

GTR 032 would worth something :blush:

nou

Im not too fussed if nobody would be keen to buy them separately...I'll just flip them to a mate to put on his gtr....

Guess i was just wondering if anyone was interested for a small fee as i thought it was a pretty cool plate without custom plate costs!

love to get my sinista plates back on the car here but costs way too much here for them, in darwin it was a $140 one off payment for 7 letters....and plus the hassle from cops with custom plates

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
