yeah importing modded cars is fine as long as the RAW is able to changeover the aftermarket parts for those that are present in the evidence package they used. Also the aftermarket parts can't alter the structure of the car that is irreversible (ie hole cut out to fit FMIC).

once you submit a car as being complianced, dotars can inspect the car at their discretion to see if the work carried out is by the book. some workshops take a gamble and put the paperwork in without doin the hard yards, and when they get audited they get into trouble. I've heard of workshop owners closing the roller doors when they've seen an auditer come down the driveway and run out the back door. Most RAWS do it by the book and get by. DOTARS maintains tabs on most RAWS and the ones that get audited regularly are the cowboys of the industry and those that are just starting out.

technically the parts taken off must be destroyed, but the RAW can sell it to a scrapper who then sells it back to the customer etc... as its out of their control.

I've got an R33 with some mods here in Japan. Looking at sending it back to Oz some time before may next year. Can I send it with just basic mods e.g air cleaner, exhaust and send the rest and replace once complied ?? Also jacking points are a bit bent is that going to be any problem and has had had left front guard replaced due to small bingle..

Any help be great...Also looking for reputable company to do the whole process..any recomendations..

Sounds like it will be ok.....we comply them for $2000 including GST (discount for cash), located in Richmond + Abbotsford (2 locations).

We can lend parts (no charge) if you need anything to get it complied.

We're more than happy to give you advice about how to get your car here....give us a call or email,

cheers,

david

    • What ECU is on your car @silviaz? You can just change the idle target table yourself and the IACV duty cycle. Noting that if you play around with the screw you'll also need to revisit the idle base duty table as you will end up offsetting the lot. Another reason why DBW is superior, there's less mucking about.
    • Yep. Saw that on the image above but, wonder if it makes more sense to clean out the iacv because let's say in theory mine is dirty and if I clean it the rpm will drop. If I first go to my tuner to drop the rpm and then go to clean my iacv won't it drop further or is the rpm a fixed number?
    • Yeah it was a good result, and confirming the car is full of fluids and all interior etc in, other than fuel. I think a few pages back (maybe many pages!) he mentioned some serious lightening in the doors with the chassis punch, might have been done elsewhere I hadn't seen yet too
    • He still had the suspension dialled in for him! I would have sworn the lowest weight he ever got to was 1300kg though Maybe Neil had been drilling a LOT of holes somewhere you haven't found yet... 😛 Or has he also drained all the gearbox and diff oil out too, between it, and a tank full of fuel there's about 65kg to 70kg to add back in I'd guess. 😛
    • Yeah this isn't a super complex shape, but I was still happy to buy instead of fab version 1; very little in a modern can is a flat surface, and that is true here again - the undertray has about 50mm in height differences that I would have had to work out myself. I will probably make something more substantial before it does any rally, I don't think 1mm steel is too much use as a bash plate. There is also cooling to think about, Z1 have done a bit of development and have some air holes and louvers in the shape, will see how that works out too
