temporary rego! It IS possible to rego a defected car - ive done it, and kye done it.

Basically - go the the rego place at regency, take the rego form and defect papers with clearance signed and the date of your regency appointment.

You will pay the normal rego fee and instead of the normal coloured rego sticker you get a temporary paper one that you stick to the window. It is valid UP UNTIL YOUR REGENCY DATE.

Once you pass, take the clearance form and the temp sticker and they will swap it for a normal rego sticker.

Dont let people say it can be done, it CAN.

Saves paying a towing fee, day pass etc.

How long's the waiting list?

My rego runs out in August, I was going to wait until I've fixed everything on my car and then make a booking, but that may be after my rego runs out.

if the waiting list is over a month, i should make a booking now and hope i've fixed everything by the date, so i can still drive it there..

the wait was for around 2 weeks.

I needed more time tho. Alot of stuffing around to do.

Didnt realise my rego was due to run out. stupid me.

have you fixed what you got defected for ? If so you can take it to the police station and get it checked off and still drive around. you cant do this till you have booked for regency tho.

+1 for what flick said

i done it before too. but you have to make sure that you speak to someone that knows what there doing

or just speak to the manager if you get someone saying no it cant be registered while defected.

yeah it works, if you cant make the regency date go to the cop shop and get your permit signed again and then go to the rego office and they can extend your temp rego.

As JDM032 said make sure you tell them what it is your after or get a manager, the ladies behind the desk at regency seem to have constant PMS anyways haha

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
