hi

just helping a mate out,

his found a skyline for sale but is uncomplied and unregistered, the owner says he has import and compliance docs, the car has been like this for 2 years in aus, hasnt been in an accident, and is relatively stock bar some rims, turbo timer, blow off valves (all easy to remove and replace with originals), he questioned him about the period of time its been sitting here and the owner said the compliance has been extended.....

does all this sound right? could it be complied? in nsw ? (car is in nsw aswel)

any info would be good

cheers

Ask the owner whether he got an import approval from the workshop that is compliancing the car. Iam pretty sure that the once the vehicle arrives in Australia it has to be complianced within a year.

You can extend the time period for compliance every 12 months if it hasn't been done yet. If this guy says that's what he did, then he sounds like he knows what he's talking about. Ask him who the compliance guy is (find the name on the import approval) and go to the DOTARS website and look up his telephone number. Call him, and if the compliance guy says he won't comply the car for one reason or another (i.e. aftermarket intercooler, accident car, etc.), than you should probably steer clear of this car.

cheers,

david @ carizma

question you should be asking is why has this car been sitting for 2 yrs and not complied...do not under any circumstances part with any $$ until it is complied and registered...or you might end up with a whole heap of useless metal. Personally I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole as a lot can go wrong even with a car thats been sitting for 2 yrs. Plenty of other fish in the sea.

      George's R33 GTST build

      By pogman · Posted

      Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.

      They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.

      I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)

      You can just get the injector bosses, which allows top feeds to fit. He can use the same injectors without issue, like these (another option): https://rocketindustries.com.au/af59-2210-rb25-fuel-injector-inserts     The Racework ones look a bit better: https://www.nzefi.com/product/raceworks-lower-injector-mounting-boss-kit-for-r33-rb25det-s14-s15-sr20det/   You could also just get a similar kit like the Radium one by Plazmaman: https://plazmaman.com/product/nissan-rb25det-r33-billet-fuel-rail/?srsltid=AfmBOoogfYq49X0fu2Wdbf8yOf6zt9egyPAif_gn3Qr3G8hzAphhTgOkO70
