i suppose we will be seeing the same plates over but with letters replacing numbers. i am not a fan of this. yes it does open up the imagination to different plates but i still think its gonna be crap like majority of the NSW ones that people have done.

I would much rather the plates go on enthusiasts cars rather than car yards.I am also willing to swap for parts.RAC1NG & ELV1S should cover the costs,the rest will be profit.

you've done really well mate, ELV1S is going to make you a mint.

I actually thought about this a bit more.

The value of 'custom' plates now has decreased significantly.

in the past you had to be really creative; eg:

"CAYMAN" becomes "C4MAN", "CAYM4N", "C4YM4N"

The original loses value, and the subsequent ones will never fetch the money the original would - if I wanted CAYMAN i'd not want "C4YMAN" for $1K when the original would be 3K

Also, with so many possible combinations going, say you wanted $5K for a plate like R32GTR, someone will settle for a combination that is similar like "R326TR" for $500.

Further, no point getting stuff like "LS1SS" as the potential asking price is too high a percentage of the vehicle price, as opposed to "GT3RS", which $5K is a small percentage of the purchase price

But ELV1S will score some big bucks though ;)

Buying plates to re-sell them is pointless lol. ELVIS is worth something, ELV1S wont be worth close to the original. Not to mention people would prefer to buy mods on their car than plates for $1000.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
