Hey Guys,

Just wondering i have the oppurtunity to buy a set of R33GTR number plates (SA) off a mate... he has moved to NSW

and i live in VIC...

I rang the SA motoring authority and they advised that i would need a SA residence/address to own these plates

I'm not going to assign them to a car as of yet as i havent quiet found the right R33GTR for me...

But i dont wana pass up the oppurtunity to buy these rare plates...

Just wondering if anyone has a suggestion...??? >_<

Basically i would have to say that i Brenton Ford blah blah blah ... live at xxx address i want to register these plates...

That address would get like 1 or 2 letters per year

and i would just request that i get those letters forwarded to me or emailed a copy so i can make the appropriate payments etc

If anyone would like to assist post here or please contact me on 0429093400 , PM me or [email protected]

I know im just a new member but assistance would be greatly appreciated

Im also a long member of Antrx.com

Thanks.

Brent

Hi Brent,

These are my mates plates and used to hang out with him every weekend when he lived in Adelaide.

Cant believe he is finally selling the plates and so many years.

Hope you can find someone to do it!!!

Im not registering them to a car... just buying the "Rights" to those plates so i just need a SA residential Address...

Basically i wont get fines

As they are not going on a car...

The only letters that would be sent out is the annual registration that would be it i guess...

Im jst not too sure of SA law n stuff but basically in VIC u get a letter with your registration, or in the case of plates u would get a 'renew your plates' bill and that would be it...

And i've heard that the SA custom plates are $190 a year

But yeh baically it will just be calling the SA road authority using the address i have been given by a very generous SAU member :P

and put them under my name then be a proud owner of some rare plates :O

I could provide $$$ for the use of someones address but yeh i'll do a touch more investigating but if someone is intereseted please PM me or just post here

cheers

does your mate have them on a car?

if you don't mind me asking why do you want these plates exactly as you won't be able to use them on your car if you live in Vic. Are you just planning on having them for shows ect.

Lee you don't have to have a SA license to have a car registered here

Lee you don't have to have a SA license to have a car registered here

Yeah, I know this part luke, but I was looking at it from the point of view if his permenant residence is noted down as south australia (to own the plates), then he must have a south australian drivers license as he would be considered a resident of the state.

UNLESS you can be considered a resident of 2 states at the same time?

technically you can't. If you live for 3 months in a state you have to transfer to their licenses. and are meant to cancel you other one (but no one does)

I was thinking more that if Brent doesn't want to allocate the plates to a car then he doesn't have to buy the right he can simply buy the plates from the guy

In all honesty i was buying them for an investment...

I know it probably not guna make much money but you never know it could mean something to some SA guy and he could pay me a bit more than i paid for them thats all...

Im looking at buying http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/St...0k-t191158.html

R33 GTR 55,000kms Compliant unregistered no wheels For sale on here...

20K in melb im going to look at it this weekend if i can contact the guy

And i could use the plates in photos etc

But yeh now that i have told u that i want to buy them for an investment it will probs get back to the seller and he will ask for more but it happens...

Edited by Brent_Ford

ok if you just want them for photos ect you can just buy them and not worry about the rights

for an investment you will need to use an SA client no, you can't just put the address down as our "proof of identity" policy is very narrow and you will need to provide original document with the address printed on it. In the recent months they have really cracked down on this. I'm an agent for transport SA and are allowed to sign and licensed to do all the paperwork and inspections on vehicles yet i am still unable to hand in photocopies of people documents.

you will have to pay the 190 per year, if they elapse for more than 12 months the number is then available for someone else to use.

if there is anything elese you need to know feel free to ask :P

OUCH!!!

haha oh well offers that seem so easy always wind up being a pain in the ass if not impossible

LAME!!!

thanks heaps for the advise that oppurtunity goes out the window

but as i said i might be a worthy member in a while if i buy this GTR

i do currently own a 93 Nissan SSS Bluebird

but GTR here i come haha

thanks guys tlk soon

cheers

Have spoken to him via email and you can PM him at nutshunglow on SAU.

I do not want to disclose the on here just incase there is more than one person trying to buy his plates.

He is selling his whole car by the way if any one is interested, R33 GTR of course.

You can PM him as above.

    • 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.  
    • 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?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
