Hi all, long time since I posted

Trying to sell my plates I've had for a number of years now. Since the car was sold interstate, I have no use for them

I have advertised them on eBay and currently have them up now - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/R32-Skyline-GTSt-Pe...=item27af52e730

What do you guys reckon they are worth? Is $350 too much or should I be asking more?

How hard is it to transfer them over? Any of your experiences would be good to hear

Cheers,

Chris

what you're really selling is your intellectual property, because you thought of it.

spot on.....if you think that your one random though is worth $350 then by all means its worth 350 lol......nice plates though

exactly its the wierdest market around. i cant beleive how much people have paid for plates in the past but each to their own.

something like "godzila" would be worth something but i dont think your plate will be that sought after.

good luck all the same

Is it actually legal to sell plates? Dont they remain the property of transport sa at all times?

The right to display the plates is held by the owner, and can be transferred for money.

It's a bit like if you had XXX-XXX plates on your car and someone nicked them, it doesn't mean you lose the right to display them. You just get a new set (if that makes sense!).

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
