The 33 I liked is in fact a 1996 (Compliance plate said '98, green plate pre-SEVS btw), should I steer away from it or not even though it isn't under finance or stolen or write-off register?

imo, if you like the car just get it every car will have small problems from the 90s mine needed new suspension and tyres as well as needing to repair the front lip but still loved the car when i saw it so i got it! :thumbsup:

tl;dr Shit can be fixed :D

Nah, that isn't what I meant, I were saying the car was complied as '98 model when the actual chassis is in fact a '96 model, not sure if I can live with it.

buy mine man.... 30k

Since you don't have the Professors on, no thanks.

Haven't had the chance to look at grey 33 in woop woop, may do that this weekend.

harden the fuck up princess. Was probably a typo in the CPA registry that sent out plates.

If the car has been registered, and has a history in one of the national registration systems, no one gives a shit about the plates. The only thing that's used for is the initial rego.

Grant come to shep on Saturday and tell the guy to meet you at DECA rolleyes.gif

Shep is closer for him.

Just got a message from the seller, he doesn't seem that keen but told him I'll be there...

Shan, is it pretty common with pre-SEVS cars?

Just want to be sure before I go stupid and buy it.

It's not common, but it's not surprising. a car I bought didn't even have a plate. which was fun, ran around for a month trying to get it from canberra and it turned out I didn't even need it to reg the car.

just make sure the VIN on the plate of the car matches the VIN on the manufacturer plate, and then run that VIN through FAST to make sure the specs of the car match up.

eg: 6U9000ECR33123456 = ECR33-123456 = RB25 R33 GTS25t

Thanks for that but, is error on import approval or mistake by Canberra put it on wrong year pretty common during pre-SEVS days?

The VIN on said 33 isn't 6U900xxxx it's 6T91 thingy hence my curiousity, what sparked it when I ran it thru Vicroads check and FAST (VR listed it as '98 whereas on FAST, it's 96).

6U900xxxx is new SEVS system, under CPA it was some weird shit.

Errors happen, check that the VIN numbers match up properly. No one gives a fuck about the year.

    • That's a short. Find the short. It will be somewhere between that fuse and the headlight. Start by removing the plugs from the back of the headlight and dimmer switches, and measure resistance to earth. Supply side (power from the fuse) should have none. The other side should have resistance compatible with whatever globe(s) is there (which is relatively easy to say for a normal globe, perhaps not as easy to say for LEDs). Anyway, if you have very low resistance, you defo have a short. Then you just have to run the wiring like you're running the bowel of a dog (on the operating table) that has swallowed something it wasn't supposed to.
    • Hey guys, need help figuring out why my driver side (RH) fuse 15amp keeps blowing. The Driver Sides Headlamp is out, i replaced these a long time ago with LED ones that were working for 1-2 years. Now, the driver side light is out and i traced it back to a broken fuse. I replaced the 15 amp fuse in the engine bay and as soon as i flip the headlight on, it blows the new fuse. Any idea what's going on?
    • I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol
    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility
