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.

    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.

    • Ha ha ha, so they stopped the bearings spinning on the one you want, but then decided the crank hub should slip instead 馃槢   Stick to RB, at least you can work on it yourself. And now it doesn't smell of vapour   Also I still believe there's a chance your new flap doesn't "pop", as even though the engine might breath hard, it has a direct path with no restriction to the inlet, which when on boost should pull a bit of suction for you. If you do get pressure in the catch can id be very intrigued. Time to put a boost gauge on it, and a session at the track, then solid cover your vent and do another session
    • Oh nah, S55 doesn't eat bearings, just the crank hub slips lol.
    • When鈥檚 the tow ball on the 33 coming? 馃檭
    • I welcome any basic question that can help haha. Yes it has 2 unis but the driveshaft is a one piece and the unis are welded without a slip yoke at each end.   What's funny is anytime I've ever had wheel vibrations it's always been in the front so I automatically assume it will lead to steering wheel shake and not chassis vibration. With that being said, I never considered looking at my rear wheel balance... I have doubts though as this wasn't an issue before I pulled the motor and trans but is still very much worth a look. I'll do that tonight after work. Thanks.
