    returning number plates

    if the plates havent been cancelled then u should be able to get some money back, but in order to do so i think you need to hand in the plates from memory. vic roads hates it when you walk in with ten sets of plates needed to be handed in since they were not being used anymore.

    Is gas bad for gen3

    i have my gen3 on gas right now, i really dont think its bad in long run it will be because the engine was designed to run on petrol not gas. but from what ive been told these days with the systems they produce there isnt many problems and have been tested with lots of cars to make sure.

    DeanoHSV, i agree with you about the hsv exhaust system i have the hsv exhaust system on my car, was already on when bought it, and its to damn quite even with the hsv extractors. you would think with having a 5.7L with the full exhaust it would sound loud and awsome, but nah, its quite and...
