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.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
