Hi everyone,

My mate wants to sell his plates "DRIFFT"

I need some help in deciding whether or not its worth payin $500 for the plates in my avatar

Do you rekon theyll increase in value over time...or is it just a waste of money, im really 50/50 on it, cant make my mind up :rofl:

I need some more opinions, would you pay $500 for these...are they unique? I could spend that $500 on payin off my loan or mods..but then they might be sold to someone else.. :freak:

:wavey: :D

there are those that'll pay for the b.s. of custom plates and those that really have better things to spend their money on .. but i'm sure you'll find a buyer for em, but just don't expect to be making a fortune on plates alone. THere are better investments..

i was actually going to get a standared issue plate: DOX.033. it was availible but it wasnt slimline and also green and white hahaha.

i agree, personal plates would bring more attention to your car, and people would remember the car and refer to it by the plate more often than just a standared issue

with plates like drifft they will pull u over for sure.

It snlike having a plate copsux u r asking for trouble

My first plates were FATA55. The challenge was not getting pulled over for a walk around... I'd personally stick with a plate that's hard to remember and is inconspicuous and common. Saves time and hassels. If your buying as an investment, just to hold the plates, thats another story. Good luck, hope they do increase in value if you buy them. :P

I always though that I1I11I would be cool.. imagine the cop trying to recognise *that* one from a distance :( and in court later on "you sure it was I1II1I not I111I1?" :rofl:

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
