Get it inspected (roadworthy), take papers to Service Tas, register it. Simple.

its not quite that simple.

You will have to do a few things first (if they are not already done) but nice and easy under the 15year rule.

Bare minimum is:

VIN stamped onto firewall (obviously matching paperwork)

drivers side mirror glass changed

seatbelts (either new fitted or Jap ones passed by engineer) for the price of new belts you are better off IMO to replace them with new ones.

UNLEADED Fuel only sticker

along with a few other things good rubber and a general roadworthy car.

Main things people fail on with AIS are indicators/lights not working and electric windows not operating correctly.

Then its paper work to Service Tas and pay your rego (make sure you take a receipt for purchase of vehicle) and get your plates

Don't know if all that is necessary. My R31 import has none of what you mentioned. I just got it inspected and took it to Service Tas and got it registered.

Has it ever been registered or is it just a fresh import? If regoed interstate its no harder than any other car, if regoed in tassie before again, no harder than any other tassie car.

What is it? Theres a few in Tassie. Last count I think there was ~10 coupes, including wogboy's GTS-R (jealous!), and a 5 or so Passages.

I've got a white GTS coupe.
