Interesting - will keep in mind next time it pops up.

weird I saw the numberplate [1] the other day... was on a Benz of some sort, nothing super special though!... I don't think it was even an AMG version

E63

Got a whole thread dedicated to Vic plate spotting for us number nerds:

http://aussieexotics.com/forum/number-plat...es-t5403.0.html :D

EDIT: beaten to it. but the dude has upgraded

Yep I see it every day.. it's parked downstairs in my building

The guy who owns it is Peter Bartels (former Coles Myer CEO). Used to have them on a AMG E55, now on a silver E63.

"Peter Bartels is now the highest paid executive in Australia." Some of his inflammatory comments had included the following: "His earnings of $55,000 a week - disclosed in the company's latest financial statement"

I agree w/ dezz. The super-expensive super-exclusive 1 and low 2 digit plates seem to be on relatively crap (RELATIVELY) cars. If I had 200k plates I'd sure as hell own something more exclusive than a normal Merc/AMG or 911 Turbo. They're not even limited editions. If I could afford to spend 200k on a plate I'd be looking at Reventon/Zonda/SLS territory. But that's just me. The rich will obviously do whatever they like.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
