Hi all, ive recently bought a R32 and when i went to get a roady they said it didnt have a import plate, all it has is the blue plate from factory and 2 mod plates, the car is registered and has been since 2007, but 1 of the mod plate dates back to 2005, what do i do? it's been resprayed so maybe they took it off then? but why is the first time it was registered was only in 2007 when it has a mod plate for 4 seats in 2005??

Hey mate,

Can you get a picture of the engine bay and post it here?

Who did you buy the car from and have you checked that the car wasn't stolen or written off?

i did a revs check on it, didnt say it was stolen, just said it was first registered in 2007, ile take a few pics tomorrow for you guys.

Hey GoodoldR32,

Hey mate, do you know if it came in on RAWS or with the 15 year rule. If it did come through the 15 year rule then it wouldn't have a plate anyway. But besides that you don't need a plate to get a roadworthy, so your mechanic is way off and anyway, the Vin will be registered with Vic Roads(or your states equivalent) and NEVDIS anyway. Hope that helps

      Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c

      I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
