let me start by saying i hate the rta.

now that i have that out of the way i need your input. do i display my plates while i'm selling them and save on the storage fees or just fork out the cash and store them at the rta. it's not really about the money as i'm going to have to pay $50 to store them or pay $50 to change them to black and whites. i ordered yellows and i'm not about to display the yellows on my car as it looks wrong.

if i display them i can at least advertise them on the car but i'm not that keen to for some reason.

what would you do?

I would display them dude.... in black on white they'll be fairly inconspicuous (sp?) and may as well get them out there so people have a chance to see them which may help them in their decision to buy your plates or not.

Your Dragster.com.au and your Drags.com.au add selling them could EASILY be mis-read as NEVER DISPLAYED. That's the impression "not currently displayed" gives people.

I would however ALSO like them to be displayed on a big f'off dragster.

george, i dont know if youve checked, but you cant store them at the rta for $50

i tried to do the same with my custom plates, and you have to pay the $400 odd dollars whether you have them on your car or not, once you got them originally.

i didn't want to pay, so i handed mine in.

cheers, mark

if you want to store them at the rta you pay the $50 on top of the $400 but if you display them you only pay the $400. that's why i'm thinking of displaying them. plus, i can advertise them that way.

bit of a jip but at least it stops all the ppl that store plates simply for the purpose of selling them. it's hard enough finding a combination for custom plates so you can imagine how hard it would be if storage fees were only $50.

so when am i going to meet the beast?

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
