Hey guys,

I want to get custom plates on my upcoming R33, I don't like the standard full size WA plates at the back or the front (too ghey)

To anyone that has custom plates, what size do you have ?

I understand there is 1/4 size, 1/2 size, 3/14 size and normal size..

I'm thinkin of getting 1/4size at the front, and 3/4 size at the rear. this sound about right ?

Ahh dont wanna let the wind outta ure sails but imho these are some bad points with personal pl8s.

1/ ppl recognise the car wether its good guys (cops) or bad guys (theives) ure better off remaining anonymous.

2/ they (like everything) cost money which could be put to better use under the bonnet.

3/ U run the risk of gettin the pl8s i had planned:lol:

Not entirely true.

You can have slimline at the back, you just have to make up a plate which covers the massive space left there and also to cover the big nut which holds the rear bar on. Have a look at mine next time you see me (bring on the next crooze!) to see what the hell i'm talking about.

Cheers!

I don't know what the story with the sticker type number plates are. I know that in order to get 3/4 size or 1/2 size plates you can only have a certain number of charaters on your plate. Mine had too many thus had to pay maximum $$ for polycarbonate as well.

Boostzor: Nope, wasn't me in Kings Park. Sorry. I was totally asleep at that time! :P

Strich9: I know it's not 100% official but is that car from Melville Auto Imports? Think I saw one line it there when I drove past the other day.

Cheers all :)

If you get the slimline ones at the front and normal at the back - does the rear one use the same letters as the front and what colours is it?

I was looking at getting the $110 slimline (the one where you dont get to choose the letters) so I get a slim plate up front to minimise airflow disruption to the intercooler, but the fullsize plate would look better at the back, depending on the style.

Or is it a full custom choice to get the slimline and fullsize plate (eg expensive) ?

i ordered some plates a few weeks ago. this is what i understood.

u can get those slimline plates for 110 or so bucks but they choose the letters. both plates are slimline.

or u can u the slimline plate where u can choose 2 numbers and 2 letters. both plates are slimline.

or u can get custom plates for 275 bucks(steel). u can choose the colour and size. there are about 14 different colours to choose from. front and back plates can be different sizes.

u can track down the wa licensing centre online to get all the details. i think i searched "custom plates wa."

hope that can help.

      Does anyone sell a pipe that's made to go from the Greddy FMIC kit for ECR33 (RB25DET) to the Greddy intake manifold?

      Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?

      Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.

      Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you?

      I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
