I'm thinking of getting a white on black background personalised plate for my white 33 gtr but I dont know if the slimline or the standard will look better on the car. Anyone have any recommendation? Or should I go standard on the back and slimline on the front? Cheers

Going off this website I assume the slimline ones are called 'prestige'? If so, seems pretty similar to the front plate on premium plates in NSW, if that's the case I reckon it would look great on your car.

I've got slimmer plates on the front of my car and I'd say it wouldn't hinder the airflow to the intercooler as much as a standard plate would (even if the difference is only marginal). I just put some longer bolts and spacers between the bumper and the plate so that I didn't have to bend the number plate...

Ive got the same plates but black on white. They're definatly good looking and make a car stand out;

Maybe you could get "GTR 24U" :P

Had to be quick to snap up those plates eh mate? Good effort!

I think that cos they're both only 5 characters they also just fit the JDM lic plate holder nice and snug right?

Have had them for a while now actually :P

Yeah your thinking is correct, they both fit the rears perfectly, no need for trimming at all

slim line make a big difference imo, well worth it, finding a good combination is harder unless u go prestige. I got Blue on silver, slim front, standard back.

Looks like a perfect fit! What are series is that though? I've got different side indicators comparing to yours. Why is that??

Series 1 or 1.5 (1995) , (series 2 motor), modded front bar though, I removed the middle section (where the plate is now)and filled the cutouts,

Yours is a GTR isn't it Brandon? the front bumper/spoiler, front indicators and side indicators are all completely different to a non-GTR (GTS / GTS-t)

Yea it is. Just that I've never noticed that difference until someone offered me the side indicators for free only to find out they're totally different.

But yea, I'm settling for white on black. Placed the order yesterday. I've also took the carbon blade off for sanding and getting it recoated. The previous bastard who did it just recoated the faded coat without sanding it down... looks like crap and got some massive clear that's cracking from probably birdshit. 1/3 done!!! big job to just sand the bugger down (you'll see white powder when you start and yellow when you're through the top top and finally CARBON!).

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
