You could use mine. We live in different states.

I like that better than the other ones you listed, which seemed like you were trying to hard.

How about 3 PEDALS

Years ago I had 6SPD TOY, not surprisingly, I got pulled over quite a bit.

Oh hey, I like that one.

There's something awkward about 6MT4ME. It would make a better screen name than a license number.

Many options, one of the hardest one if you ask me.
The NO LIFT ideas just made me thing about doing something related to heel/toe downshifting. Maybe I will go that direction. What does CD009 mean? 370GT and SKYLINE are already taken in my state. I was shocked that 370GT was gone.

I know yours has something to do with your rear gears, but I forgot how it goes.

Just spit balling ideas at this point. I am sure the list will get longer. The 3 Pedals idea is not bad, but it doesn't seem terribly clever to me. I will take your advice on skipping the 6spd toy plate to avoid the attention of local law enforcement.


Thanks everyone for the ideas so far! Keep them coming.

It looks like it could be a normal tag, but it's personal. And it rhymes.



However, it's really only applicable for the current car. When the day comes to move on, I'll probably surrender it. Or maybe not, out of nostalgia. We'll see.

That's right, I knew it had something to do with the gearing. I am surprised you don't like the 6MT 4 ME if you like rhyming plates. I think I am leaning toward that plate still. I just have not thought of anything more creative yet.

I tried options with heel and toe down shifting or double clutching, but they all came out sounding like a podiatrist or had too many letters

HEEL TOE
HEL N TOE
DBL CLCH
LF FT FUN
L FT DRVR
LF FOOTR
I LK GERS
I SHFT GR
SHFT GER

I don't really like any of those above, but maybe:

SHFT 6MT

I'm late to the other discussion, but the first thing I did on my car was put the Nissan emblem and badges on it. I think it looks weird without the emblem because of how big the trunks are. If you want to do it go for, especially since they should have came that way to begin with. You could keep your plates too though since 4DRZCAR might make a little bit more sense with the Nissan emblems.

I agree with you on the Nissan emblem on the trunk. I am trying to figure out now if I should get one for the front grille. It still looks pretty aggressive with the intakes behind the grille.

The intakes are a bit more noticeable in person. The way my workbench lights are reflecting off of it here makes the grille seem not as see through as it is normally.


The bottom grille will give a little better idea of how translucent it is. I keep trying to picture it without the fuji emblem. I think I will get a Nissan emblem for the trunk and then place on the grille to see how it looks with and without a Nissan emblem.

Does anyone know the dimensions for the Nissan badge for the trunk of a Nissan Skyline 370GT sedan? The picture below is for the coupe, but I do not know if the badges are different for the sedan or coupe.
