Cos it was NSW, you cant sent a letter of dispute to be reviewed like here in the ACT. I've tried before. You can go to court for it, and plead your case - still paying basic court costs, or you can pay the fine.

*edit* I was advised if take it to court, the judge will look at your driving history and other credentials, and there is a chance you may have your fines RAISED rather than removed.

if this one of 31 i would have just tex-screwed on to the bumper. lol

who cares if you have to drill a hole? the number covers up everything anyway. Certainly not an excuse for not attaching a plate for 4years...

Dispaying a number plate on the dash inside a high performance car is just asking for trouble IMO. Just buy a thin number plate from the motor registry and display it like I do on my R33 GTR S1 (see pic). As for the fine - I would probably just cop it and never do it again (lesson learnt). Do you really want the hassle of going to court and running the high risk of losing and then having to pay all the court costs and the original fine? Ten years time you're not going to care about any of this lol move on

Some 3M double sided tape will hold the plate on just fine. I had my GTSTs parte held on in the same spotas the above pic with double sided tape for over 2 years.just get the plastic ones made up without hoes drilled

option 1 - pay the damn fine

option 2 - pay the damn fine

option 3 - pay the damn fine and stop complaining

In terms of mounting the plate, get two pieces of metal, bend them into an "L" shape, drill holes on the bottom and the top, screw the bottom underneath the front bar and the plate to the metal. Offset it on the left or right of the front bar.

There's a boat load of adr's and shit that number plates need to comply to. Like must be parallel to the road, visible from X angle either side of the the car at Y distance from front and rear. Plate must be RTA issue and not made by ya mate at the sign shop (rapid now pick up on fake plates). Plate must be up right also not lying on your dash or on your massive fiberglass front air dam. They sell "drift spec" off centre plate brackets you screw under the edge of your bumper where you dont see, get one.

^ ^ ^ exactly.

In which case, the only way IMHO that you can get off is for a psychologist's report that can convince the judge that you suffer from a rare condition, "number-plate-on-front-bar phobia" or perhaps, "number-plate-on-dashboard obsession"

And just in case you are convinced that the above are suddenly plausible, it means that you're simply looking for a loophole.

    • Stock RB fuel pressure is near enough 43.5 psi, so the latency in that table at 31.6 will be close. You can see that 7 or 8 psi equates to about 0.4µs extra latency. So if you wanted to interpolate between the 31.6 and 39.9 psi values you could say you're going up about 2 psi out of those 8, so add about 0.1µs, which is barely worth talking about and is quite possibly wrong because ideally you would fix the latency while running at the appropriate conditions on the dyno, with a wideband sniffing its butt.
    • The pressure, is what you set the fuel pressure to. If you have the factory fuel reg, you'll need to find the factory spec. I don't know it off the top of my head, but someone else might.
    • For others, what GTSBoy states here should be paid attention. Why? Well lots of people play with different engines, and they LOVE to change things like remove AC, or steering pumps etc, and it lends to them needing to move the tensioner too. You want your tensioner, particularly those that are sprung or hydraulically tensioned, to be the first thing after the harmonic balancer, or technically the "last" pulley in the chain. By saying last pulley, I mean look at the direction the crank spins when the engine is running, follow the belt from where the crank is pulling the belt FROM, and keep following that until you're between the last pulley/accessory on the belt and about to reach the crank again, this is the spot where you put the tensioner. This is the area that will always end up with slack. This is worked out exactly the same way for chains too, as the physics is the same for them. The crank pulley is where all the force to drag the belt around comes from. You will never ever get rid of the slack that appears, especially under load. The tensioners job is to keep the belt loose enough when stationary that there shouldn't be out of sync movement in slow movement, and then be tight enough when running, that the belt can't jump off any gear and get damaged. Too tight, bad things happen, too loose, bad things happen. Have a tensioner (mainly sprung/hydraulic one) in the wrong spot, it can't actually do anything about keeping the tension.
    • It was gonna take much longer for the 440cc so I'd thought I'd risk it with the 550cc. They finally arrived and I couldn't wait any longer (I could but I was quite excited after 2 months) and installed them myself. Removed the old injectors, inserted the new and connected everything up. Before starting the car, I tuned the injector size from the factory 270cc to 550cc using Nistune.   This did some of the calculations automatically which catered for the TIM. The latency however did not seem to change. Deatschwerks have the tuning data available for each injector online, and I had a look at it. It has a table which relates to latency according to pressure and voltage (see below image). Nistune requires the 14v value, but I am unsure of which pressure value to look at (my lack of knowledge and experience have something to do with this). The highlighted value is close to my current latency which is 760µs. It is for 14v which makes sense, and the pressure is 31.6 Psi.   I still gave the car a test drive to see how it goes, and honestly it has never felt so powerful before (and some people say the RB20DE is very weak?). I really enjoyed the drive. Side note; The injectors are quite noisy, which someone mentioned before. This does not really bother me however. I will still ask my mechanic to have a look at it and perhaps ask a tuner to fine tune it if they have the knowledge.
    • Also true. But imagine not wanting new injectors? Imagine wanting to use 30 year old injectors?
