Hi all, ive recently bought a R32 and when i went to get a roady they said it didnt have a import plate, all it has is the blue plate from factory and 2 mod plates, the car is registered and has been since 2007, but 1 of the mod plate dates back to 2005, what do i do? it's been resprayed so maybe they took it off then? but why is the first time it was registered was only in 2007 when it has a mod plate for 4 seats in 2005??

Hey mate,

Can you get a picture of the engine bay and post it here?

Who did you buy the car from and have you checked that the car wasn't stolen or written off?

i did a revs check on it, didnt say it was stolen, just said it was first registered in 2007, ile take a few pics tomorrow for you guys.

Hey GoodoldR32,

Hey mate, do you know if it came in on RAWS or with the 15 year rule. If it did come through the 15 year rule then it wouldn't have a plate anyway. But besides that you don't need a plate to get a roadworthy, so your mechanic is way off and anyway, the Vin will be registered with Vic Roads(or your states equivalent) and NEVDIS anyway. Hope that helps

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
