Hi Guys

[SUR33L]

Hey Guys,

I'm Cas, and im new to SAU, my first Skyline (Black R33 S2) is on its way over from Queensland now... and i won't be able to wait much longer!!

I'm gonna have to take it through Regency, i know what mods it currently has on it... could anyone, tell me what i will get through with and what i would have to change/rip out? Thanks.

It is a 40th Anniversary, which has:

- Tein 16 level adjustable coilovers.

- Hks silent, hi-power exhaust system.

- Hid 8000k headlight system.

- Blitz turbo timer.

- Trust Airinz air filter.

- Cusco strut bar.

- Nismo indicators.

Can't wait to take it for a drive and start on the cosmetics!

Thanks again! Appreciate it,

Cas.

Welcome Cas!

Has this car got rego in QLD? If so you won't have to take it over Regency, you will be able to go next door to the Surt Cop Shop, and they can go over the relevant numbers for you to get it rego'd here and in your name! They are a bit better than taking your chance thru Regency!

Going thru what you have listed, you might be able to get thru as is, BUT i would wind up the coilovers a bit so it's not too low!

[SUR33L]

Really? Sweet, yeah it was registered in Queensland and doesnt expire for a while..

Not having to go through regency or the cop shop before, i dont know much about this... any more info? or where i can read about it?

Thanks.

Try having a read of some of these pages, they will help you out!

Note that it says something about if your within 40km from the city you need to go to Regency, BUT that is crap, you won't have to! Maybe ring up Darlington Cop Shop, and ask when thier office is open next door to them!

Once inspected, they will give you some forms which you need to take to the Transport SA office and you can then pay for the registration!

Welcome Cas, yeah as stated above.... I bought my GTR from brisbane in february and took it thru sturt inspection depot no hassles. If you have current rego and the car is not BLATANTLY defectable then you have no dramas!!

[(OO Black 33 OO)]

Welcome Cas and good luck with the car, make sure that nothing is visible tho or they will have a shot at you. Like the turbo timer, anything they can spot easily will stop you from getting thru. Good luck and look forward to seeing you at a cruise or photoshoot.

[SUR33L]

Thanks guys,

Yeah, the only thing that stands out is the turbo timer... browsing around the forum isnt helping the waiting game at all!

thanks again.

Welcome sounds like an awesome car.

I nearly got a 40th aniversary 33 and kinda wish i did.

I really like the shape of them and the badging.

Be sure to post some pics up when you get it and remember to come to all our events as we are all a great bunch of like minded people.

Hi Cas,

welcome to SAU hope you enjoy your stay and find a wealth of information here

Hey Cas

welcome,

as said above if the car has been registered in another state you only need an identity check not a full regency check, what area do you live in? there is a station next to sturt police that do the inspection on wednesday and thrusday these guys are usually more relaxed about the cars that go through ( at least they used to be 12 months ago when i used to have to go down there) They do check tint.

good luck with it all and enjoy

[SUR33L]

Thanks,

Yeah, i live in Golden Grove... so yeah, thats where im looking at going, rather than regency.

Easy to take the turbo timer out?

[Whiplash]

you shouldn't need to take out the turbo timer just don't have it on

as long as the car has been previously registered they will check the VIN, ENG no and build dates and compare them against the database to make sure that the car isn't stolen

[kralster]

All they did when i got my car from queensland where it was complied was to check the VIN and engine no.

Then they signed a form and i went to the registration office in goolwa, paid a few grand in stamp duty :< and went on my merry way.

welcome, it shouldnt be too hard for you to get it regod at worse they will tell you to fix things and bring it back...

Hi and Welcome Cas

Damm it there i was thinking that i was the only one in SA with the 40th Anniversary Black R33 but i love it so much its almost like a child and just as expensive as one hehehe

Anyways watch out for Regency i just had to swap over my plates to SA and what a bitch it was, the worse part it was for a stock Hyundai Lantra they picked on my window tint and my E2 Stamped Momo

For sure it would be best to take it to a cop shop and less expensive the Regency park.

[SUR33L]

oh sweet! man am i hanging out to get this car!

Black Vash - i havent seen any in SA, an thought i was gonna be the only one too! in fact, i dont think ive even seen a black S2, or maybe havent been looking hard enough.

thanks again..

[SUR33L]

actually, Black Vash... have you got any pics of your car? it'd be good to have a look at.
