Hi,

I was hoping someone may be able to give me a hand ASAP.. Car waiting at engineers now. Will give you a rundown of my problem.

Im currently having a problem getting my recently purchased 1989 R32 GTR (import) registered in NSW. The car was brought in VIC and has current VIC rego, with import compliance and an engineers cert in VIC.

I have at this stage taken for a blue slip to which the guy told me I need an engineers cert because it is an import and it is coming interstate. (Mind you I called RTA before buying the car and they said nothing of an engineers cert - useless!)

So I have taken it to an engineer and fixed up all issues with the R32 but the engineer has just spoken to me and told me that the seatbelts and headlights in the car dont have the required markings on them to certify they are legal in Australia

(He checked windows etc and everything else has appropriate markings, it has also had child restraints put in)

Can anyone confirm what I will have to do and if the headlights/seatbelts need these markings. Also if they dont have the markings are they actually legal in aus.

Appreciate any help on the matter.

Cheers,

Mitch.

this advice is spot on (greg runs a workshop that issues blue slips himself so he knows!).

and as I stated in your other of the 3 threads you started:

mate, 1 thread is enough. there is no surer way to piss people off on a forum than the sign up and start 3 threads on one topic to try and glean info. in future, start 1 thread in the appropriate section, then patiently wait for someone to respond with some help.

this one stays as it's the first one I saw. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/R3...ra-t236568.html

    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
    • Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.
    • People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion 
    • Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?
    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
