i thought of this aswell, maybe even just getting some mock up ones made with my current rego, but in a Jap format, would look good for track days/DECA/show'n'shine etc.

Is there somewhere that does it as a tourist/novelty kind of thing? we sell heaps of australiana and number plates and signs etc in all the "aussie" shops you see, surely they have the same over there? :thumbsup:

They are easy to get.

But they wont be Official plates. You CANNOT get official plates because they have to be handed in at the end of ownership to pass to the new owner. Anyone that does this is doing something naughty. Still, when has the law always ever been correct and who am i to quote it?

The stuff you see and is "legally" easy to get is more like the mockup Japanese style license plates we see every event over here at D1

Im sure ive seen plates with R32 on sale there.

interested?

TAS is on this weekend but im going skiing. Im sure there are TONS of people from SAU that are going and can get you set to pack in the return luggage.

yeah they always sell fake japanese plates at TAS and nismo festival etc. you can get ones with R32, or RB26 or GTR etc on them. they are not cheap though, I think around 5,000 JPY each from memory.

price is about right...cant remember off hand exactly but they had rows of them in any config you could want and that with added security from a legal standpoint.

I secured legit R35 plates in S.A if anyone is interested by the way!

thats legal to say that right? by SAU i mean?! ;)

More expensive than the genuine custom plates Im waiting for but much much easier to get! ;)

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
