The car has been in the country for a while then as that rule was abolished shortly after mine came in on it in 2004 ish?

Edited - actually I seem to remember something about still being able to bring cars in that were up to that 15 year age but it wouldnt continue in the way it had but being able to import a 1990 in 2005, then a 1995 car in 2010 etc. It was just up to 2004/2005 I think.

Without knowing with 100% certainty, I would say no. The car didnt come from the factory like that (or did it?)

i herd u can get away with few things when cimplying under 15yo rule as that the importer complied it the car way much befor the 15yo rul eneded so he had it for long time just want to know if i could get away with putting fiberglass front guards or would i have to put them on after comply lolz

What car?

The 15yr old rule was trashed from memory, and hence regardless of it being landed...

It must still be complied then under the law, not 3 years later under a rule that no longer applies. (using the 3yrs as example)

Compliance is "bringing in" in terms of what your talking about.

oh sorry lol forgot to put down what my car is lol its a 1989 - 1990 R32 gtst and has the papers brought in under 15 yo rule

    • The max they would go for me is 50.
    • That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.
    • I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.
    • Got started on the modification to make these splash plates fit over the long weekend. First the surprisingly time consuming task of swapping all the cam cap bolts to Tomei cam cap studs. I did the method of removing one bolt at a time, applying loctite to the stud, double nutting to torque as the manual described. Then carefully unlocking the nuts without disrupting the torque of the stud (and going back to re-torque a few times when it slipped). Finally applying the nut and torquing to spec. Repeat x28 Next up I went about removing the stock cam cover baffle so I could ensure it was fully clean after drilling for stud clearance.  As the blind rivets holding the baffle on were domed I used a punch to mark the center then used 4mm drill bit to carefully drill out the rivet without going too far part the baffle. As seen in other thread here is what is inside the stock baffles I decided on M4x6mm bolts to bolt the baffle plate back on with. I used a 3.3mm drill bit with some tape to mark the depth at ~8mm. Next was to tap the threads using a cheap bunnings kit M4x0.7. With the baffle removed I also drilled out the spot welds holding in the baffle plate oil returns. Unsure whether this was the best option or if I should have cut holes in the Hypertune splash plates to allow the oil drains to still function... time will tell. I then removed the the Hypertune splash plates so I could rest the cam cover on top and use a dab of grease to mark where the studs impacted the oem cam cover baffle. The most obvious spot was on the hump from the stock mesh is held. Using this hole as an anchor I bolted the oem baffle plate back into the cam cover and lined up the Hypertune splash plate. Marked the rest of the holes for the studs and drill those out too. Total 32 holes drilled and 12 threads tapped on the passenger side cam cover alone for this bolt on part that totally clears all OEM cam covers.. Drivers side next as well as some E85 safe fuel foam to fill the space behind the behind cam cover baffle plates. oh and some lock nuts for the splash plates of course.
