Changing To Qld Rego From Victoria.

[cliff25gtst]

hey guys how are ya

i am changing my rego from vic to qld as i have moved up here.

been driving around with vic plates for 3 months so far.

i drive white r33 from brisbane area. ippy way

so just wondering wat the go is.

i changed to qld license today and they said that i have only 14 days to change to victorian license. is that true??

only 14 days. i thawt they gave u a couple of months.

and now more importantly i am just wondering wat the go is with changing over

it has a question about modifications, i have intercoler and boost comtroler and exhaust etc etc.

it says if answer yes u may need to get a modification plate or something???

and it says something about inspections and stuff??

back in the day it used to just be RWC and there ya go..

so any one got any idea?? do u jsut need a RWC or wat??

help would be appreciated. thanks

dont need mod plates for those minor things.

Just go get a Saftey Certificate (RWC) and go to QLD transport, it's quite easy.

[cliff25gtst]

oh true just a roadworthy certificate

cheers hope thats it.

so at the modification part do i tick yes or no??

[ToMMaH]

I had a look, by the sounds of it (question 16 on the form) that is only for major mods that do require a mod plate. So unless you have anything which actually does need a mod plate just put no. You shouldnt be able to get a RWC if you have un-modplated mods anyway.

[cliff25gtst]

ok mate thanks for the help hey.

good as i wll just tick no then

any ideas how much rego for me r33 will be at all?? 6 months..

[ToMMaH]

$210 + the cost of whatever CTP you choose.

[cliff25gtst]

is ctp compulsory?

being from victoria i all ready have a like 9 months insurance left with just cars for third party. so i still gotta pay it do i??

[ToMMaH]

Yeap, compulsary is what the C in CTP stands for It covers damage to people. That Just cars insurance you have would just be for property.

[cliff25gtst]

haha ok

so how much roughly is that?? just third party hey.

so bout 400ish for 6 months ey? bit lower

[cliff25gtst]

sorry for all the silly questions. just trying to work out the budget haha

[ToMMaH]

Cant seem to find the rates. I'd guess 250-300

[R334door]

Yes CTP IS compulsary, thats what th C stands for. you pay that at QLD transport.Its different tyep of insurance to third party fire and theft etc from just cars.

changing rego is easy

you have to get the right form, its the same form as registering a new car but seeing as the rego is already in your name there is no fee to change over other than the cost of buying number plates

you need a RWC and you need to take this with your form and your car to a QLD transport office

then they will inspect your car to check that the engin and VIN numbers match with your form and you're done. you obviously have to pay QLD rego but you will get a refund of your remaining VIC rego

CTP is a compulsory insurance that is normally included in the VIC rego already. in QLD they allocate you a CTP automatically but you can choose a different one if you like.

this is separate from insurance which you still need to change over to your new plates with your insurance company

best of luck!

But you can't transfer rego interstate so there would still be the normal rego fee.

my bad

[.:: GimpS-R34 ::.]

warren you make me laugh... quote yourself

and yes warren has confirmed it.. however there is an admin fee of $21.05 for new car rego.. i dont think they waive that fee even if it's your car (i mean dont forget this is the government here..

cliff.. i'm sure you meant in your question they giving you 14days to change to qld plates? (not vic license?).. just follow what warren has given you.. get a qld rwc (as rules on mods, etc are diff in all states) fill in the new car rego form (they dont recognise vic rego.. go down and register the car... while your there hand in your vic number plates.. they give you a receipt for the plates.. then you go on the vicroads website and get a form to mail (with receipt) and they will send you refund on your remaining rego..

Just Car insurance is easy jus update the address and plates.. but ctp is insurance on injuries to related parties.. diff from just car who insure the vehicles.. you get a choice of ctp insurance in qld.. (as the other guys stated)

i think it's roughly $340.00 for six months rego (including ctp)

done.. although that pretty much what warrren has summed up

[Doze]

Just reregistered my 34 recently.... all CTP is very very similar price in QLD within about $10 max from memory.... I'm with Allianz with mine ( I work for them, so I know wat I get for it... no discount still) 6 months is $333.00 total, $144.00 for ctp, rest was rego and fee and fee blah blah blah... 12 months was $634.95, $272.00 ctp rest is government pocket's stuff..
