And so, today i was driving along old beenak road and suddenly i lost traction and bashed my front end against some sand embankment, and so my numberplate was knocked off, I was wondering, how much does it cost to fix? Like mount the plate back on. And is it legal for me to drive without a front numberplate? I have it in my boot. Or should i just duct tape it on for the time being?

It is illegal to drive around with no number plate...at the least you can use a piece of cardboard with your rego textered onto it. As long as you have something there displaying your rego it will be fine. Ask a panelbeater how much to fix, seeing you're probably going to spray your front bar again.

That is illegal too, you need to have the number plate there, just take the bolts and nuts you have to bunnings get 2 the same or close enough and bolt it back on, if the holes are a little bigger now due to being ripped out get bigger bolts or some bigger washers.

you drove a skyline on a gravel road tisk tisk tisk

I would like to agree but unfortunately on saturday night when we were going through gembrook-emerald-kallista-belgrave we somehow ended up on a dirt road, slowed things down a bit.

    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
