The 33 I liked is in fact a 1996 (Compliance plate said '98, green plate pre-SEVS btw), should I steer away from it or not even though it isn't under finance or stolen or write-off register?

imo, if you like the car just get it every car will have small problems from the 90s mine needed new suspension and tyres as well as needing to repair the front lip but still loved the car when i saw it so i got it! :thumbsup:

tl;dr Shit can be fixed :D

Nah, that isn't what I meant, I were saying the car was complied as '98 model when the actual chassis is in fact a '96 model, not sure if I can live with it.

buy mine man.... 30k

Since you don't have the Professors on, no thanks.

Haven't had the chance to look at grey 33 in woop woop, may do that this weekend.

harden the fuck up princess. Was probably a typo in the CPA registry that sent out plates.

If the car has been registered, and has a history in one of the national registration systems, no one gives a shit about the plates. The only thing that's used for is the initial rego.

Grant come to shep on Saturday and tell the guy to meet you at DECA rolleyes.gif

Shep is closer for him.

Just got a message from the seller, he doesn't seem that keen but told him I'll be there...

Shan, is it pretty common with pre-SEVS cars?

Just want to be sure before I go stupid and buy it.

It's not common, but it's not surprising. a car I bought didn't even have a plate. which was fun, ran around for a month trying to get it from canberra and it turned out I didn't even need it to reg the car.

just make sure the VIN on the plate of the car matches the VIN on the manufacturer plate, and then run that VIN through FAST to make sure the specs of the car match up.

eg: 6U9000ECR33123456 = ECR33-123456 = RB25 R33 GTS25t

Thanks for that but, is error on import approval or mistake by Canberra put it on wrong year pretty common during pre-SEVS days?

The VIN on said 33 isn't 6U900xxxx it's 6T91 thingy hence my curiousity, what sparked it when I ran it thru Vicroads check and FAST (VR listed it as '98 whereas on FAST, it's 96).

6U900xxxx is new SEVS system, under CPA it was some weird shit.

Errors happen, check that the VIN numbers match up properly. No one gives a fuck about the year.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
