I dont think its a bad idea, to be honest paying a few hundred dollars for the price of a plate then reseeling it in a years time or when you can get good money for i think is worth while. I have been looking into doing the same, i have found a combination that i know i will get money. There is a difference between doing this and a scalper. A scapler will buy a ticket to a concert, then after the concert is over you only have the memories (and a light wallet), a number plate you can have for as long as you want and have something tangable that you can hold in your hands not just a memory.

Whats the difference in buying a number plate, holding on to it for a period of time then selling it for a profit to buying a second property, holding on to it for a bit then selling it at a profit when the demand is there?

I think it is smart investment and good luck to you if you can get 5k, 10k or even 500 bucks.

Isn't this akin to the days where one could happily buy a .com address and then sell it on and retire?

Nah , youd be a scalper type if you did that, lol.

Youve managed to come up with an analogy i couldnt because i was too frustrated.

I dont know what its worth but all the hype surrounding the GTR has only served to prove the plates were a good idea a year ago.

Im sure there are plenty of other people who have secured the various combinations in all the states so good luck to them.

Also good luck to you.

I think its worth what ever someone wants to pay really.

Like i said, having the plates is nice even if i cant afford the car at the moment.

i dont really feel all the negativity is really needed in this thread.

This is the way the world works. If you can make money doing something people do it.

m3gtr, im sure youll be able to make money off all the plates you have. just dont try to sell them stupidly expensive.

goodluck to you. if you you didnt buy these plates im sure someone else on the forum would have.

You are all obviously pissed you didnt think of it yourself, this man is smart and will make astronomical amounts of cash from these plates.

Half the pussys who buy the r35 are going to be loaded wankers and a 10k number plate is a walk in the park because to his mates hes the bloke who blew 10k on a plate (it makes him tough) to us it just makes him a wanker.

Nice work snapping up the plates!

theres nothign wrong with what this bloke did. he seized on a business opportunity and will make money from it.

he did nothing illegal.

he did nothing immoral

he bought something, and will sell it later - like buying art and then selling it. why would u give him sh1t? he took the initiative to apply for the plates and paid cash and picked them up.

I wish i bought VL2NV before that one sick leb did!

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.

      R32 GTR EV? The leaf of the Godzilla's!

      I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better.

      2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)

      OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
