Looking at buying a R34 which is currently in WA but still registered with Victorian number plates, does anyway know what the requirements are to run this car over the pits in WA?

Does the car have to be standard to manufactures specs as the car has front mount intercooler and 19" rims etc etc

e.g the "pits" is a roadworthy certificate for WA

Hey guys whats required when moving a car from VIC to WA.

I know i need to run it over the pits

But his as few mods which ones arnt legal?

This is what the car has.

19 INCH MAGS,

APEXI SAFC 2,

FULL STAINLESS TURBO BACK EXHAUST,

GTR STYLE BODYKIT,

TIP TRONIC AUTO WITH F1 STYLE SHIFT PADDLES,

BLITZ BLOW OFF VALVE,APEXI AIR POD FILTER,

TURBO TIMER, ELECTRONIC SUNROOF,

XENON ELECTRONIC ADJUSTABLE HEAD LIGHTS,

ELECTRIC FOLDING MIRROR,

BLITZ FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER,

OPTIMA DRY CELL BATTERY,

FULL KEYLESS ENTRY WITH REMOTE ALARM,

TYRES 93% NEW,

BOOST,

OIL TEMP & PRESSURE,

VOLT GUAGES

This is based from my experience of having 7 yellow stickers.

19 INCH MAGS - should fail them, max size is 17"

APEXI SAFC 2, - will normally pass, but best to hide it

FULL STAINLESS TURBO BACK EXHAUST, - no problem unless it's too loud

GTR STYLE BODYKIT, - no problem unless it's too low

TIP TRONIC AUTO WITH F1 STYLE SHIFT PADDLES,

BLITZ BLOW OFF VALVE,APEXI AIR POD FILTER, - BOV may get failed if it makes any significant noise, air pod need to be securely mounted

TURBO TIMER, ELECTRONIC SUNROOF, - turn turbo timer off, sunroof should be fine

XENON ELECTRONIC ADJUSTABLE HEAD LIGHTS, - HID may get picked up and failed

ELECTRIC FOLDING MIRROR, ok

BLITZ FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER, - ok if securely mounted and front support bar not cut

OPTIMA DRY CELL BATTERY, ok

FULL KEYLESS ENTRY WITH REMOTE ALARM, ok

TYRES 93% NEW, ok

BOOST, gauges ok aslong as the don't block line of sight to road

OIL TEMP & PRESSURE,

VOLT GUAGES

Cheers

Interesting.....

In vic the rules state that any rim can be 1inch bigger than the biggest rim that was fitted to that chassis from the factory. Ie the R34 gtr was fitted with 18" std therefore even the gtt is legally allowed 19".

Also in regard to the xenons, when the car is complied the xenon globes are removed (supposedly destroyed) and replaced with oz spec non-xenon globe. Unless the owner has replaced these with xenon globes they should be legal.

On a side note I can't believe they check all this just for a WA rego!! In vic when I imported mine and reg'd it all they did was check the chassis and engine no's! You only worry about things like exhaust and ecu if you get the dreaded EPA notice :D

OK well i need to change the xenon lights then before the inspection.

I talked to guys today at the licensing centre and what they told me, all mods should be ok like froon mount and air filter as long as they are fitted correclty.

Also the rims can be 2 inches larger than manufacturers specs, so i think the gt-t standad is 17". the info is inside in the door section of the car.

The other thing is the TV, as it need to be mounted to the brake so it can only be turned on while stationary.

So that covers just about it.

What globes do i go get from the shops, well some cheap replacements?

    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their reliability is proven, performance can be predictable, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
    • Hi all! Looking to relocate the battery to the trunk of an R34 GTT. I want to do it using as many stock GTR components as I can (including the harness protectors from the 34 GTR that run underneath along the chassis to the engine bay). So far I’ve purchased the battery tray from a 33 GTR, as the captive weld nuts are already there just asking to be used. There is also the slight issue of now having to relocate the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU, which in GTT’s sits right above where the battery will then sit on the tray. Has anyone already achieved this, and if you have any pics that you wouldn’t mind sharing? It would be great to see how others have done it and where you put them, as there are countless holes in the parcel shelf panel to potentially use. Just trying to get some ideas bounced around, and to help uncover any potential problems I may encounter by  my choice of location. TIA for any help!
