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

-D

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

    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
