Just ordered my license plate. Apparently you can't have a "V" on NC plates.
Edit: Plate for my Supra https://imgur.com/gallery/nAXaSok

But they let you have the Ericsson triple sausage logo on the plate.

Didn't realize you can use "/" as a license plate character. I'm gonna make sure our VINwiki PL82VIN supports this now.

In the UK the plate can be transferred from one vehicle to another (at a cost!). And, can be sold on the open market. |

Plate belongs to me. I ordered it for my 86, since I'll get my Supra before the plate arrives.

In the US it varies by state, as the license plate laws are state jurisdiction, not federal. In Georgia, you retain the plate when you sell a vehicle and can transfer it to the new vehicle, or dispose of it.
In some other states, the plate stays with the car when its transferred. Here's a site that shows it by state.

That, or the torque is falling at higher rpms, so horsepower stays flat. There are definitely plenty of engines that use a smaller turbo for faster boost or torque, but that falls more in the high rpms when the turbo is actually more of a restriction. The 2.0T in the Accord and Type R are a good example of a small turbo versus a larger turbo: Quote:
Here are some stock dynos of a WRX and STI. Both have a flat spot in horsepower when their torque starts to fall. https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-car...ru-wrx-vs-sti/

Days of balancing the clutch, getting the revs just right and changing gears just banished forever!!
Where's the skill gone?? The Supra "driver" spent more time looking out of side window.. |

It’s been gone for a long time. Gearless electric cars will soon replace even the paddle shifters.
