I'm thinking of getting a white on black background personalised plate for my white 33 gtr but I dont know if the slimline or the standard will look better on the car. Anyone have any recommendation? Or should I go standard on the back and slimline on the front? Cheers

Going off this website I assume the slimline ones are called 'prestige'? If so, seems pretty similar to the front plate on premium plates in NSW, if that's the case I reckon it would look great on your car.

I've got slimmer plates on the front of my car and I'd say it wouldn't hinder the airflow to the intercooler as much as a standard plate would (even if the difference is only marginal). I just put some longer bolts and spacers between the bumper and the plate so that I didn't have to bend the number plate...

Ive got the same plates but black on white. They're definatly good looking and make a car stand out;

Maybe you could get "GTR 24U" :P

Had to be quick to snap up those plates eh mate? Good effort!

I think that cos they're both only 5 characters they also just fit the JDM lic plate holder nice and snug right?

Have had them for a while now actually :P

Yeah your thinking is correct, they both fit the rears perfectly, no need for trimming at all

slim line make a big difference imo, well worth it, finding a good combination is harder unless u go prestige. I got Blue on silver, slim front, standard back.

Looks like a perfect fit! What are series is that though? I've got different side indicators comparing to yours. Why is that??

Series 1 or 1.5 (1995) , (series 2 motor), modded front bar though, I removed the middle section (where the plate is now)and filled the cutouts,

Yours is a GTR isn't it Brandon? the front bumper/spoiler, front indicators and side indicators are all completely different to a non-GTR (GTS / GTS-t)

Yea it is. Just that I've never noticed that difference until someone offered me the side indicators for free only to find out they're totally different.

But yea, I'm settling for white on black. Placed the order yesterday. I've also took the carbon blade off for sanding and getting it recoated. The previous bastard who did it just recoated the faded coat without sanding it down... looks like crap and got some massive clear that's cracking from probably birdshit. 1/3 done!!! big job to just sand the bugger down (you'll see white powder when you start and yellow when you're through the top top and finally CARBON!).

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
