Hi

I'm trying to register my newly acquired 1990 R32 and just got few issues with QLD Transport

The car was imported privately by previous owner, but I will be the 1st owner to register.

Car got complied with the Mod/Blue Plate with code L01 Aust Design Rules Comp.

1st issue no year stamp on the car's plates (jap and mod/comliance plate)

2nd Need import paperwork

now what import paper work do I need to provide? I called the previous owner and he said he'll get the people who complied it to email me a copy.

Now is this copy acceptable or do I need the original papers?

*note I'll post this in the QLD section for reference

please advice

Thanks in advance

you will need the import approval,

the yellow modification certificate that accompianies the blue mod plate in the engine bay

what other documents do you already have? where are you located? I know that some QLD transport offices are much more relaxed when it comes to newly registered imports.

In NSW you also need a weighbridge ticket, and CTP insurance in hard copy.

The centre simply take a photocopy anyway, so I'm guessing the copy SHOULD suffice. I have always had the original though, so I can't be 100% sure.

I have never been to MacGregor. I know that Woodridge have a rep for being the easiest to pass.. and the people are quite familiar with imports... many other places have no idea what they're looking for.

In NSW you also need a weighbridge ticket, and CTP insurance in hard copy.

In QLD you don't need a weighbridge ticket, but yes, you will need to apply for CTP from say suncorp or RACQ BEFORE you go to QLD transport.

Also you will need a current Safety Certificate...

If you have the safety cert and CTP and the registration application form FULLY filled out, you can drive the car to the inspection centre... but only directly there. You will need to rego the car the SAME day as the CTP is written... I know with suncorp, you can change the original once only, then you need to cancel that CTP form, and get another one. (You will get a refund for the cancelled one, but it just takes time.)

Do you have the safety cert/ organised CTP yet?

Would dotars re-send a copy of the import approval document? Still looking for one of the pages to get the car registered but in a worst case scenario situation, would they re-send the papers?

The vehicle is approved and everything.

Yeah they usually will if you confirm ownership with them. I've done it before, no hassles.

      Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.

      From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)

      In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird

      Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller

      So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
