There are a couple of good ones for the $200 ones, but I'm not going to say because i might want one of them soon myself :(

**** those custom ones.. $2k for plates it the biggest joke in the history of driving. Only for people with too much money, not for plebs.

If you like your car to look the part.....polish....paint...carbon etc.

Finish the car off and buy a set of plates????? (people alway notice your plates)

$2000 is cheap and you can alway resell and get your money back...if not more.

But choose a plate tag, that others will want....(names are not a good idea, resale market very limited and you will lose your money)

Consider it as an investment...putting your money in a bank for another day....but enjoying it at the same time.

Older boys toy....Boys and their toys...cars are just toys to play with and enjoy....enjoy life buy a better toy (well thats the theme I went for..for fun and investment)

I have:

TOYS on my STI

NO TOY on my GTR

A TOY this plate will go to Auction

NSX 666 was on my Black NSX. These plates are for sale $750

95 GTR was on the the other 1995 GTR v-spec. These plates are for sale.$1000

Can anyone here suggest any good car clubs that meet regularly.

thanks Phillip

Well since I'll never be able to afford what I want, and since it is still available, what about ILCUL8R "I'll see you later" but then again if I did have $2000 sitting around I definatly would not be spending it on plates, so many mods so little cash! :(

thats the line - i guess if you're a certain type of person and has lots of money to throw around.. i could'n't really give a flog what plates a car has on as long as it looks the part..

horses for courses.. I can think how much $2k invested at 7% p.a. in 5 years will probably be worth more than a little plate.

**Step 4 Enter your Alphanumeric Combination:

Prestige Plates require an Alphanumeric combination of 3 to 6 characters.**

MELV

Yes that was me...you were a couple of lanes over....like the rear wing and the look of your car. Looks and sounds like you've just completed a few upgrades.

Worth going to ASPLEY just to have a closer look at your car.....talk to you then.

As I said, I purchased NO TOY for the GTR, but was contemplating getting SHOW ME, which was also available. Show Me makes a number of statements....good show circuit....good for tuff street car....or for seeing more than you should??? Good plate for the all round car. You would never lose your money and will make more than a pissie 7% return.

Let me know what you eventually get.

Talk to you latter Phillip.

p.s. PREDATOR are you still after the new UA copy 400R side skirts....if so you can have them for $100 a piece.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
