Until he runs NISMO Z through his database, and nothing comes up...

How do you tell the difference between O and 0 on the plate? 99% of the people don't know. 0 looks the same as O on the plate when used with letters.

I know lol but unless the cop is a real idiot, I doubt you're gonna get off.

If anything, after he does search through:

NISMO Z
NISM0 Z
N1SMO Z
N1SM0 Z

He's gonna be pissed and write you up just for wasting his time...

If the cop see's the plate, but doesn't pull me over. Writes down NISMO Z. Remember that I have NISMO on the rear of the Z in 2 different places. The plate frame and the factory lettering. His mind might see NISMO Z, not N1SM0 Z. He mails me the ticket. Good chance that some one else might get it. All of this is coming from a 56yr old man.

If you what to find out what plates are availabe in Pa. Here's the link to find out.

I had a problem with this, actually. When I was granted my plate for "370HAWK" I got a letter that spelled it like "37OHAWK" which obviously looks dumb. I was afraid my plate would look like that, so I called up the DMV. They said that their system treats "O" and "0" exactly the same and doesn't differentiate between them, and it appears as the numerical "0" on the plate. So my plate is technically "37OHAWK" but it appears as "370HAWK" on the plate.

In Pa. There is a differance between O and 0. As you can see what is taken, and what is availabe.

NISMO Z - Taken
NISM0 Z - Availabe
N1SMO Z - Availabe
N1SM0 Z - Taken

This one is still available in CA, don't know if it would be approved.
Would anyone dare to have it? Would it be more trouble than it is worth?
