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.

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
