I'm under the suspicion that they can't/ will not defect a car registered in another state.

but if u are to get SA rego on ur car u will need to take it to Regency to get it looked at or some mumbo jumbo like that.

If u have family in NSW just keep it rego'd there. Less hassles.

if u live here and own an interstate registered car it gets defected

however if you have an interstate licence and an interstate registered car then they can't legitimately do anything. A mate got defected interstate in his car a couple of years ago, went to go get it cleared and pretty much got told by the cops at the local station to peel it off as they had no juristiction (sp) over SA

I could be wrong but his was my experience, i lived in Vic had Vic plates and licence and came over here for a holiday and got defected for only being to low but had to take it through regency, (i assumed i couldn't get defected interstate too) regengcy went ova the car and slapped another 7 defects on it (f.....headsz!). 2 defect stickers got some looks tho haha.

I had to get it passed here at regency and then they were meant to sent papers back to Vic to say the car has passed, which they didnt and Vic cancelling my rego after the allowed 3 days, but me no knowing about it for a good 4 or 5 weeks. Might be different for nsw but i would think so.

P.S next time tell them that your leaving that day or the next morning and they usually will let u go!!

Hope it helps

      R34 GTT idle problem

      Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I would like more noise related info for my truly uneducated guess  Does it do it at idle or when revving, clutch engaged, and disengaged? Does it only do it when the car is moving? I've heard "similar" noises from a clutch pack that left the chat room, and CV joints that have chewed themselves out But as Matt said, how's the yokes, tailshaft and centre bearing going after their last little issue Fingers crossed it is something simple  Weird noises make me cringe

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      One other question, is there a chance that changing the idle speed can lead you down a rabbit hole and is the reason the tuner didn't touch it? Reason I ask is because if that's the reason the tuner avoided it then I probably shouldn't be touching it lol.

      Pfft. As if I'd ever point a high pressure washer at my car.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The nature of my commute has changed. Way back then it was traffic lights all the way, for ~28km. It sucked. When they finally stitched the expressway together I could do a good 15+km of it at a steady 80-100 with no stopping. That alone has gotten me down to flat 10s. Prior to that it was mid-high 10s. I can't remember the delta that I saw when I got the idle down. It was only ~150 rpm, because the idle speed was never terrible, but for the delta in consumption to be noticeable it would have had to have been at least 0.2-0.3 L/100km - which is not to be sneezed at when it comes for absolute free. It's only about 50L per year, but that's ~$100. A few extra pizzas is always welcome. Note that I have a record of every tank of fuel that has ever gone through my car except for a handful put in by someone else, like my mechanic. I can show you the difference between stock RB20 and tuned RB20, stock RB5Neo and tuned, winter and summer fuel blends, winter and summer fuel blends when the ambient temperature is not appropriate for the blend, working O2 sensor, blown O2 sensor, boosting f**k out of it and frightened to boost it because it is pinging, and so on. OK, I probably can't do all that now with 100% clarity - but at the time when any of those things were in event, you could see it in the records. There's 25+ years of simple tank after tank records, so you have to look for landmarks to work out approximately how old any single record is. What's really important is the meta data and that lives in my head.
