I'm sorry. I don't get it. Why do people advertise plates for insane prices? Do they actually sell or are these guys in some alter-universe where they think there are buyers that pay the same for the plate as they do for a car??

SIKR33 = $4000, offers considered. and so on...

They are always in the SMH Drive section.

There is one in the SAU Classified for $10,000... So you want me to pay 50% more for two sheets of pressed aluminium that I would for a used RB26? :bs!:

Has anyone here at SAU actually purchased plates from someone? Sure, having 96GTR might be nice, but why the huge prices???

If you have bought one or more, I mean no disrespect, I honestly just don't get it.

Note: I am all for choosing unique plates when you go to the RTA, it's the whole deal of guys trying to sell them for thousands afterwards...

i was offered 5k for my plates- the 2nd nyt i went for a cruize 2 the city wif them on- so there are ppl out there that are willing 2 pay big bucks 4 plates.

5K? Far out. Great price, I hope you took it! :)

I think it'd have to be the highest markup on any product I've ever seen

Out of interest, why did you go for personalised plates? Just tailoring the car to how it suits you? Just seems like a big expense.

A tip to anyone who has the money

OMG-WTF is not taken in NSW. I was thinking of getting it for the cefiro just for a laugh... till i saw you have to pay every year in NSW... geh

but there are some stupid idiots who pay more for their plate than their car is worth and they think they're blingin..

80-something debaged 318 with tempe tyres "sick" 18" chromes with "URLKN" or "BAMZD" or something stupid... it should be "URLAFN" cos those guys make me feel better whenever i see them... sigh i love it how theres always someone dumber than you out there :P

I have put my number plate Which is three letters only and guess what they are??

Its R34

Custom Yellow

and i've put it for 10K and i believe its worth that because you are driving a R34 GTR worth 120K and some 6 letter customised plate ...and some1 is driving a R34 GTR worth 80,000 or GTT worth 40K and has this customised plate R34 that will definitely complete your car...Doesn't matter how much you spend on engine and mod's ...may be 25K ..its better get a number plate like that which completes your car ....

Any1 interested in buying the number plate please PM me...

Ok I can see why someone would buy 350ZED. That'd be ok, for the right price. But the funniest thing I read in an ad was "genuine buyers only!"

Nice. WARNING: NUMBER PLATE TEST PILOTS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED :tool:

I paid $1945 for my Qld Plates "SLIDE" bought them new at PPQ

true it could have bought me an intercooler or computer but now i have street cred everyone knows me cause of the plates and the car has a name to live upto.

Qld plates are better quality being fully enclosed much more professional looking and you only pay once.

Just my 2 cents

I've never bothered with personal plates, the way I figure they just don't make your car go any faster. I do however have to invest in a set of black and white slimlines rather than the chunky old school plates I've got now.

The thing that gets me is you have to pay a fee just to chose ANY number now in NSW, even just letter letter letter, nyumber number number. RTA told me all I can do to aviod any fee is get my current plate made into a new one. Stupid RTA.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
