You should all buy cefiros! Mine fit perfectly.

Oh wait, 15year rule is gone. But for lets say $50k you can have my cefiro :) Muwahahhahaha!!!

Mine was an 88 model, your value just sunk :wassup:

What about if you were rear-ended by someone, and you bent the plate back nice and straight (albiet with a little kink or two, cant get a perfect job if your not a metalworking pro) is THAT still illegal? ie, natural biffs and bings to the plate. They cant expect it to stay pristine for its whole life afterall...

i got done in a vehicle inspection, luckily i was on my way home from a law exam and the cop saw me comin out of uni so he was rather easy on me after i told him what exam it was (just happened to be police powers!). He didnt fine me and said that if another officer ever tries to fine me ask them to do the 45 degree test and when it passes that tell them that only a department of transport officer can fine you.

By the way, this is for having ure plates cut slightly, not bent. But mine are cut in such a way that u can still just see the outlines of the red border

Thats exactly how mine are too.

Mate of mine just had a look at the legislation on the gov web page and he tells me there is no rule actually written regarding cut number plates.

I will have a look tonight and see if this is so.

I would say he's missed something.

Will keep you guys posted onm how I go in the end.

This is a problem that I might aswell try and fix so this revenue raising loop hole stops. GRRRRRRR ;)

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
