I agree... for example, this Mark II Blit would have looked a touch overdone if the owner had added one of those glowing number plates.

for sure, lucky he let his sense of good taste restrain him. :)

mate, having those plates is not only illegal, showing them off is pretty offensive.

As a Japanese resident i find it insulting. If those were my plates and i saw them in the back window of someones ride, id be pissed.

Hehe well unfortunately for readyGO I am 99% sure that numberplate came off a C33 Laurel and not a R33 Skyline. It is still pretty cool though.

I still have the plates from my S14 that was crushed. I am pretty sure legally, LOL, I could be wrong.

To be perfectly honest, I purchased them from an importer who had them advertised on ebay :)

Not sure how he actually got them, but I only paid $70 from them and picked them up from his place..

Just checked his ebay profile (he had a few plates for sale).. Anyway, doesn't look like he's a registered user anymore as of the 15th Jan...

gee...i wonder why...? :)

You know Laurence, If i had to crush a car id sure as hell keep the plates. Screw anyone who thought otherwise,....a little reminder of my dead bebe and all that...but buying someone elses off a dodgy Ebayer?? thats a little different.

To readyGO, you may not have known it at the time but you know now... those plates were supposed to have been surrendered but hey, if your conscience is clean, keep em! :banana:

M3gtr, when you deregister any car you have to surrender the plates so when you go and deregister your car before you get her crushed and don't surrender the plates (you tell them that they were stolen and go and get a police report) you are doing committing the same illegal, pretty offensive act as readyGO has. And as a Japanese resident, I would find that insulting if I hadn't done it myself a couple of times already.

The main reason I think they are from a C33 is that the "vehicle type" number 533 is for a "Passenger Car" whereas an R33 is a "Heavy Passenger Car"

Anyway it is more a matter of trivia than anything.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
