yes, but you only get back the cost of your plates, which is about $30

I've had 17 sets delivered,but they have now put a hold on anything that replaces an I with a 1.I've already sold some of mine that have 1's in place of I's,the last 5 sets I'm waiting for include V1PER which I have been offered $5000 for.They were meant to have a decision by last week.

Just got these delivered this morning:

hey hus, you've met me, so i hope you can take this as the joke it is...

if you put those plates on a car you drove around, that would not be a wise move in my opinion :P

i still reckon its the stupidest thing and biggest waste of money

$5000 - $495 = $4505

for doing practically nothing...doesnt seem so stupid to me

LOL, dont worry mate, i'm not that stupid :D Its for a mate of mine, he's going to put it on his Porsche 911 :)

Im so over these plates after 2 months im still waiting havent got a single plate :)

If u go N1NE11, i think we should get our plates with 1 in them.

Im surprised they allowed N1NE11, cos they have some pretty pathetic 'offensive' rules.

Ive got ST1 WRX on order but its being followed up cos WRX sounds like wrecks, effing pathetic!!! They should catch on to what the plate means!!!

So true lol...

I didn't even think Porsche..i was thinking September 11....lol.

But yeah, I'm surprised they didn't deem those plates as being "offensive"

Dont think N1NE11 was easy, after sending many letters, faxes, and phone calls convincing them that its going on a 911 porsche, finally they approved it. They called me on Friday (2 months after) i ordered GDZ1LA and ONV1SA saying its all good now. Its a policy by Vic roads to call everyone thats waiting by end of this coming week to notify them of the outcome. Inside birdy tells me all your plates with the number 1 will be approved, unless they deem it offensive.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
