Just curious mate, i noticed your WA plates and have wondered for a while why they have a "1" in front of them?, whats the population of WA? thought it must have been quite a few million to warrant the extra digit

**Nthn_Suss** · 31-01-2006, 05:49 AM

Looking like sex that car is. I'll just jump forum to forum and worship it lol. Looks good dumped, going bigger rims or just different 18's?

As for WA licence plates Panelcan, we're just cool

9 digit personalised plates too

**EvoVIIIJDM** · 31-01-2006, 07:55 AM

thats nice mate, lookin tough. LOve the clubby rims looks sweet as!!

**INSINR8R** · 31-01-2006, 09:41 AM

Was going to get 18 inch XHP Barb's but now I'm thinking of going bigger. As for the license plates, I dont know why that is. I guess because WA is different to the rest of Australia (like we dont have sunday trading, you guys do....)

**Infus10n** · 31-01-2006, 09:53 AM

The reason why they have the "1" as the first digit is because that is the new style nubmer plates in WA. The old style use to be yellow with 3 letters & 3 numbers. But they wanted to start fresh "1AAA 001".

**Panelvan1975** · 31-01-2006, 10:43 AM

It just seems odd because WA only has about 2 million people living there, where as here in Vic there is about 4.9 million and we still have 6 digit plates and what about Tassie, i'm not sure about their population but it cant be that high and they have a "1" at the start of theirs as well

**KingDiamond** · 31-01-2006, 11:01 AM

Nice that is.

**stocky** · 31-01-2006, 11:13 AM

looks good but how can you afford that? how much was it?

**INSINR8R** · 31-01-2006, 11:45 AM

$36000 on finance

**scott.waldon** · 31-01-2006, 05:54 PM

That looks real sweet mate!!, One of my fav cars

, would look killer with sum 19's, and maybe evn 20's

Keep us updated with what you do with it.

sandor · 31-01-2006, 08:04 PM

nice, it looks very slick. congrats ALL THE BEST WITH IT.

**fourstar82** · 31-01-2006, 11:15 PM

I envy you, and your mate with the VR. Fantastic looking cars? How long is it going to take you to pay it off though? Being young (assuming you are because of the P plates), you must have a pretty good paying job! Can't wait to hear some performance times from the track after you do all your mods!

"VIVA LA PERTH!!!"

looks pimpin man and keep it that way, represent the Perth Holden chapter proud!

Lata man

**INSINR8R** · 01-02-2006, 11:06 AM

Cheers guys. Its gonna take me about 5 years to pay off.

I was going to put on 18 inch XHP Barbs but now I'm thinking about 19's. 20 is too big, its bad enough the tyres scrape the front.

I'm going later today to get prices on catback exhausts, if its cheap enough, then that will be going on before the rims.

also gotta enquire about the INSINR8 plates

And I love the VR/VS clubbies too. Awesome grunt to them, and I work as a bouncer, i make enough money a week

**sixshooter** · 01-02-2006, 11:23 AM

Nice car m8 !!! but I think you're mates VR is sexier :P

**INSINR8R** · 04-02-2006, 09:41 AM

Went to WA Performance in Leederville on wednesday. Here is my future to do list

2.5 - 3.5 - 2.5 inch DiFilippo Exhaust system
Gear Ratios to 3.7
Mafless Tune
"Over the top" Cold Air Intake...

All up will cost me about $4000, though I'm gonna do one bit at a time.

Well for one, Manuals are hard to find, and I don't have a manual license, mainly coz I rushed to get my license for my job, at the time my VX S pack was auto

no problem mate i just think a manual would be more fun in a car like that, how much was insurance?

**INSINR8R** · 05-02-2006, 06:46 PM

Insurance was about $2100 thru RAC. (Equivelant for you would be RACV)

**INSINR8R** · 07-02-2006, 02:49 AM

well it happened, jealousy gets you no where. Someone kicked the shit out of the left sideskirt tonight while it was parked in a public place. Big split near the "L" in the clubsport badge. I'm pissed off I can assure you, and if I ever catch the bastard who did it... may god have mercy on his soul

**EvoVIIIJDM** · 07-02-2006, 10:15 AM
