When I purchased my car it came with GTR.092 plates, They wern't bad I suppose but I went with BB plates slim front square rear and I think they suit it to a T.

I probably wouldn't...

Those plates sound crazy familiar... did you buy the car recently?

The decision of custom plates or not for me comes down to how noticeable do I want my car to be.

If you are not worried about being pulled over and defected, or not worried about members of the public reporting you for 'hoon' behaviour then by all means get a custom plate. If you want your car to remain a bit more anonymous then I would suggest sticking with a boring standard plate that is more difficult for people & cops to remember.

i totally agree, most of the time its more a ricer thing... anything with DRFT on it these days is asking for trouble especially if you dont drift...

my missus has custom plates which suit her n the car,, they dont represent a false thing... what would noxcuse be about on a stock car?

slim plates look the best

Totally agree.

Custom plates on any sort of performance vehicle are a cop magnet. I liken custom plates to walking around with your junk hanging out.

You may have a handsome face & a hot body, but that's not why people will remember you.....

dunno eh

I've been rocking the Dohmar plates for 18 months and only been pulled over twice for bretho and rego checks...

Never been queried regarding defects, never been drug tested, never been given the 3rd degree - all the police I've dealt with have been really professional and amiable too, I can't rate their conduct higher to be honest. I really cannot complain, and I cant see how my plates are any worse - if anything, its easier for a cop to type into their vehicle computer and pull up my driving history and see that I've been a good lad...

on the other hand, if ur king dori superstar, u might have uh... issues

come to think about it i dont know why i went 'DRTY 2' when i had the 32?

the car was pretty much dirty all the time when it was dark blue but when i got it painted it almost never looked dirty even though i washed it less then i did before it was painted.

didnt represent anything to me at all and i didnt really like them all that much haha :D

      Blue slip

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?

      You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Duncan · Posted

      yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
