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

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
