saw a white r33 gts-t coming out of venture drive in noosa yesterday. had a dealer plate. i think i've seen it parked around the corner outside the RACQ workshop. i was getting the work signs off the footpath as it took off. made me miss my 33

saw a dark blue r33 coupe enter the highway round oxen ford bout 10 mins ago (5.30pm) then take off north- reason i post- NO PLATES?

Just a wee bit sus. hope nobody on here has lost one today :ph34r:

So many being stolen lately i wouldnt be suprised if it was another one.

Definitly doesn't seem smart for them to steal a car and take the plates off though....

Saw multiple skylines in moss st and randle st today about 4:15pm, anyone here own a black 34 with clear alteza style rear lights?. Also got pulled over by the boys in blue. Just a warning to anyone cruising in that area (especially peak hour and on fridays) they're setting up regular stations in the back streets. The cops ran over my car and their only gripe was my exhaust as quoted: Cop 1 'What do you think?' Cop2: 'It makes my head rumble'. Minor defect -_-' though it's at my own descretion to get it sorted. They weren't bad either, hands down they could have pulled out a dB meter and done it on the spot but they complemented me on my car instead :D .

    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
    • The fact that US/JDM plates actually fit the skyline bumpers properly is a big, big thing for me as they are the correct dimensions. Annoyingly you can't opt for a normal plate (or plate combination) in that size. You have to make up your own one, and at that point you'd still know it wasn't randomly assigned. 
    • Well, really, that's any ECU, because it's not so much the ECU that the tuner connects to, but a laptop that's connected to the ECU. You have to have the tuning software installed locally. The "remote" part is essentially just remote desktop (RDP) or VNC type access. Nevertheless, if you're looking to upgrade, then you're immediately in the Haltech/Link territory, both of which can be done by any number of competent tuners here in Oz. But without a dyno, you'll definitely also need a wideband O2 sensor fitted, and you'll probably be relying on "auto" tuning a bit, where you drive it around under various loads and then apply the corrections that the ECU learns (basically applying the fuel trims that the ECU has to do to correct the mixtures). Tuning the timing is a little harder. It can be difficult to trust the old OEM knock sensors on RBs, so it is definitely best to have someone who knows what they're listening for, with knock ears (a piezo microphone connected to the engine, and and little amp and headphones so the listener can hear the angry men with hammers who live in the engine). That is more difficult to do remotely, and I suspect the only sane way is to be quite conservative on timing. But that's OK. You're probably waaaaay better off with conservative timing where you are. What is the fuel situation? 98RON available? Or low grade jungle juice?
    • I see your point, I didn't think too deep into it, was purely focused on the price. There's no bad blood between myself and GSM, they acknowledged the price was cheaper else where and at the time couldn't match it.
