Hello Everyone.. This is hard to word but i hope you get my drift...

I recently bought a Nissan R33 Gtst from a company that imports cars (Will not name company as there may be further action against them)and was told i would get a RWC and all the stuff needed to get the car regoed in Aus ( I have it in writing)

I finally got the car 14 days ago. i look for the RWC i cant find it... So i ring the company, it went straight to message bank. I ring this company for the next 4 days and same thing... So i thought stuff this i will just get the RWC myself.. I took it to the work shop i always use and they said inorder to get a RWC i need new tyres.. So i told them to go ahead and get me a good safe set of new tyres.

So i thought everything was sweet.. I had the RWC/Import Details/Complaince Documents nothing could go wrong..

I go to get the car regoed today..Burwood (well my dad did, I had to work) and i get a call at 9 and he tells me that the tyres are not the same as on the complaince sheet... they neeed to be 225/50/R16 ...I was like wtf where are them tyres then... I ring up the complaince workshop... (It has changed hands in the past 3 weeks) and tell them that they did not put my tyres on... He said he had nothing to do with my car and it would have been the previous owners that would have done my car... (He said he has been gets stacks of phone calls a day about this same problem from this company)

So i had spend all day ringing this import company to get no responce...

So inorder to get my car regoed i need the same tyres as on the compliace sheet which are 225/50/R16... And as my rims on the car at the moment are 18 Inch i will need the whole wheel.

I will learn from this stupid mistake, But i am asking if anyone out there who has these tyres that i need could rent/sell/lend to me i will put a deposit down if needed. I will hopefully make another appointment at Vicroads on Friday 20/7

If you can help sent me a message

Thank you very much

Greg

Man, sounds like you've been fu(ked in the arse. I'd be very interested to know who the workshop is so I can tell people to avoid them. PM me the name if you can.

Regardless of it changing hands you had a contract with them yeah? I'd be going down there and kicking some arse!

PM sent regarding names and other info.

**JaR** I live in Doncaster so if no one is closer i dont mind driving

haha i had a similar story.

my seller used the stock r32 wheels to compliance car but put back the rims which were sold with the car.

Burwood vicroads told me they were the wrong tyres and I had to get them swapped back with the stock r32 wheels.

Shouldnt the workshop have the wheels they used?

I just drove back to my dealer and told them to swap the wheels with the ones they used..

Common thing for burwood vicroads to pick up little things like this. Apparently dandenong vicroads let it slide according to my dealer haha

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
