I've got "IRSMRT" (was supposed to go on a smart car, but that never happened) and bought a mate "KKMOTO" (for his original kakimoto widebody 33). If you live in VIC and can't come up with a personal plate that no one else has thought of then you shouldn't be allowed to buy them. there's so many combinatiosn at pretty affordable prices, that you've got to be a complete pillock to want to pay top dollar for something someone else came up with. Unless its one of those 3 or 4 letter ones.

I followed a shitty old white beemer with the plates "WHTBMW" today. I wanted to walk up to his car and punch him in the head for stating the obvious.

i dont mind personalised plates i actually have a pair [KOUKLO] most likely only greeks know what it means...but bad thing bout personalised plates is that people will always know who you are..so if you get on someones bad side you cant park it just anywhere and leave your car lol.

hahaha top plates re. i wanted to get grkpwer but there taken last time i checked

anyone know whos got FATGTR? coz there a pair of plates id pay good money for...

also when i bought my last plates i was spewing. because they wernt the original plates i wanted. i called a week earlier and asked for the plates ARMED (as in ready to fire hehe now that i look at it people could have possibly mistaken it for my name being ahmed... but it isnt hehe) anyway, i went a week later and they where gone.

By far the most offensive personalised numberplates are the ones that contain the letters NV, perhaps assuming that people actually want what most of the time is a piece of shit. I saw NVME or something along those lines on a stock standard 318i once.

the ones that really bug me are along the lines of "BMW-227"

if you're the two hundred and twenty seventh person to get BMW... they're not exactly personalised :P

that sort of plate would be good if on a special edition bmw if yours was build number 227. but then they are really only worth money to you. although if you sold the car you could then ask a stupid price for the number plates on top of the price of the car.

i actually find ones that quote the cars power on them. like 350kw or something like that. because if you go to a dyno day on a hot day or something like that and make a bit less than that power you just look like a dick

ahahaha, a mate of mine has/had a rx7 that had (i think) NVDIS7 as the plates. i think i saw it on the road about 3 times in as many years. most of the time it was getting rebuilt or waiting to be rebuilt, LOL

in HPI magazine some guy had it on his 32 gtr with wide body

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
