yeh if you look in any gallerys that have USA model Z's almost none of them have bloody front plates the lucky f-uckers !!! some states need it or its a $50 fine or something stupid like that if the cops bother to pick you up for it !.. i'd pay $50 every couple of months to not have a front plate hehehhe

yeah stamp duty on car hasnt been paid yet..

but they got that wrong so now i have to fix that .


nang let me know how your number plates go
my gf went to pick hers up, and they made 1 of the slimline plates regular size

so she got them to check my plates and they did the same thing ..

1 normal slimline plate ??
haha idiots... i bet they did that to yours too

nang3

yeh they arent the smartest, when i was at the licensing centre filling it all out and everything, i gave the form to her, told her black background with white lettering about 10 times , so i pay for it, then she goes and checks the receipt thing they give you and of course she gave me white lettering on a bright f'n blue background mwahahahaha...
i mean how hard is it to click the black background checkbox instead of the blue one !!!!!! hahaha


so who is paying your stamp duty?? Magic Nissan should have paid, assuming that was part of your deal with them?? otherwise you'll have to fork out for it, and it will be a fair bit on sixty something grand hehehe..i think mine was about $4,190 but they paid it as part of the deal..

hey whitey, i just been to the licensing centre and i cant **** believe it !!!!!!

1.) it wasnt busy
2.) they lent me a screwdriver to get the old plates off
3.) i only had to wait literally 2 minutes!
4.) the chick who served me was ddddaaaaaaamn tasty (and under 40 mwahaha)
5.) the plates were the right colour, size, material and spelt right

the only thing was the hole are a tiny bit small for the stock Nissan screws that hold the plates on so it was a bit of a mission, didnt want the polycarbonate stuff splintering so had to be extra careful !!!

nar the deal was i pay the stamp duty
it is $4300 from memory
but it should only be $3300
so i need to sort it out tomorrow

the deal was i get the car for 58k , i pay stamp duty, i have about 8 weeks to pay stamp duty from when i picked the car up

so no number plates for ages ...

sounds like a pretty smooth transaction.. and you got a hot chick
excellant !!!

whaT plates did you end up getting ?

personalised polycarbonate im assuming ?

nang3

yeh i'm just used to always getting the stamp duty in with the deal at the time..
still ends up costing the same in the end but i find it's just one less headache to deal with hahaha..

yeh no **** hey, the chick was damn fine !! she was there about 2 months ago when i had to get a copy of my rego papers to give to the Dealer so she must be stalkin me mwahaha.. nah i wish, but she was some tasty pastry!!

I spent ages thinkin what to get, either personlised or just slimline random plates, but i'd wanted personalised plates ever since i had my 4wd ( i wanted JACKED since it was pretty much the highest Patrol in WA at the time haha) so i got them for my Z so i then spent f'n weeks sorting out what i wanted ... I originally wanted something simple like 'Z', 'ZED' or '350Z' but everything was taken so ended up getting '3FIDDYZED' white lettering on a black background in ploycarb haha partly as a joke cause me and my mates have been saying FIDDY instead of fifty for years like just taking the **** out of local tryhard rappers and 50c, P-diddy Ice T Tupac etc haha
... i was thinkin they were gonna look hell ******'ish on the car but it actually suits it, the colours and that do anyway !!

WhiteZed

haha thats nuts

i had a friend who suggested threefiddy

or something along the lines

yeah the stamp duty, they said if i pay it myself i dont have to pay it straight away ..

not that it mattered, and yes 1 extra headache ..
i dunno why that happened now i think about it ..

awww well ..

nang3

haha yeh threefiddy was one of the other ones i was thinking but it was too many letters !! and 3FIDDY just doesnt look right on a plate after seeing some of the yank cars with that plate..

yeh that is one good thing about paying your stamp duty yourself, u can wait 8 weeks before paying it...

either way you're either paying them $58K for your Z, then the DPI $4K, or you would have been paying Magic $62K hahha...

damn government, doesnt it **** you how they get roughly $4,000 for doing nothing !!!!!! oh wow they change the names of the car owner in their database.. thats not exactly worth $4K !!!! even with a night with the hottie from the licensing centre thrown in thats still not $4k worth mwahahaha..

i bought a house in Feb that cost me $12,600 in stamp duty plus $4200 or whatever stamp duty on my Z.. so thats almost $17K i've given to the gov for nothing.... bastards !!!!!! haha

hows your Zaino going? I cleaned mine on the weekend with Meguires wash and then Crystal Guard ultra shine or whatever its called and it looks damn good, i bet the Zaino would look even better !!!

WhiteZed

iTrader: (8)

i found out today that i have to pay stamp duty on $66k
even though i got the car for $58

new government rule from march i think

have to pay the market value even if you dont pay that for the car ..

not happy !!! ..idiots

and yeah house stamp duty sucks ***** even more than for a car ....

i am going to clean my car again on saturday , just to make it even better, but yeah it looks and feels great ...

you gotta get some, i think its worth the $230 i payed, everyone says it still looks good after a while...
only time will tell

nang3

oh yeh thats right !!! I think its because it was only licensed for the first time when you bought it so you gotta pay stamp on the retail price !! that sucks !! but then again if you can afford a Z u can afford a bit of stamp duty hahahaha..

yeh im gonna spend a few hours getting my car totally spotless this weekend then fully polish the **** out of it, see how it turns out with that CrystalGuard stuff.. i didnt spend much time on it last weekend and its dirty already dammnit !! once i run out il give some Zaino a go i think..

how do you find the brake dust on your wheels?? my wheels get covered in it after driving more than about 5kms which sucks !!!!

WhiteZed

iTrader: (8)

i scrubbed the living ***** out of my rims

i have no problem with brake dust yet... at all

i have a tiny bit of dust buid up on my boot, and its been 6 days

uhhh, if my wheels got wet, my car would be ruined from black brake dust....

i havnt gotten wet yet

so no problem as of yet

i got my number plates after all of that..

they look so good !!!!!
ill show ya pics tomorrow
i drilled holes in the plate about 3cms down

they look good and are straight

nang3

man i have so much brake dust its a bloody joke !!!! i can clean my wheels totally, go for literally a 10km drive, come back and if i wipe my finger across a rim you can easily see the difference... its ridiculous !!!

yeh its amazing how much better custom plates look hey, just not having that blue crap on the plate makes it look 10x better straight away..

WhiteZed

iTrader: (8)

i know what you mean.. very dusty

very annoying

i guess its a part of having a car


yeah plates just being black make so much differance ..

happy with them ..
