Vic Reg Of An Interstate Modified Car


Recommended Posts

technically it doesnt matter how modified it is...as far as i'm aware you'd just need to get it roadworthied in victoria, then take it to vic roads to be registered for the first time....

technically speaking if you know someone in the industry that does RWC's, you could do it without too much trouble....but by the sounds of the car you mentioned it'd probably be quite un roadworthy and therefore what i mentioned above would be illegal and definitely not advised :)

even if you get a roadworthy

if you're unlucky, the vic roads guys will check the car, and if youre even unluckier, they will know about imports and modifications

you'd have to be pretty unlucky...the guys that did mine (there were 2 as i had to go back on 2 occasions because of a wanker writing a RWC wrong) said that 95% of the cars they check were skylines....then he asked if it was turbo etc...purely out of interest.

they checked the engine number, build plate etc, handed over the cash, gave me my plates and drove home....

they're VERY thorough with the RWC itself...all the numbers have to be perfect etc....so double check all that to save yourself any hassle

Anywhere doing a legit RWC wont pass a modified car unless it comes with an engineers for mechanical mods.

EPA ones are just a flat out no-no.

Good luck, sometimes you will be able to, sometimes you wont.

Thats the gamble, then theres the fun if you get pulled over driving it later on :)

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
