Hello. I got done a month ago for bald rear tyres in my 2 door, which were not at all. So all I did, literally, was drove down to Christies Beach Police Station an got the defect taken off. The SAPOL officer came out checked them and said "Yep, fine to me" and explained I should sell the car as its a target, as these cars get used all the time in high speed pursuits. I then said to him "Have a look in the back. See the child seat? Don't think so bloke".

Mechanic at work has an R32. Got a canary. Went to regency. 2 days after he got it passed, it got done again for the same things which he changed to clear the first defect. So I said for him to take it to the police station and explain whats happened. The officer went out looked at the car. The officer asked if the exhaust was stock, and then took the sticker off and cleared the car when he was satisified with its roadworthiness.

I've also been told, whether its a myth or not or if it works (I don't try to get done, but its goes along like this), if you go to motor reg and give them the registration number and vin, ask if the car is defected as your looking into buying it. If its not then your car isn't defected. As I said I am not sure if it work, or if its a myth.

Yes, I'm bored :)

Don't people do English at school anymore?

Hi

I have an a booking at Regencey to get SA reg on my car ( no Australian compliance plate )and I am not sure about the turbos.Can anyone tell me the exact part numbers that should be on a 1990 GTR turbo .

Cheers

I was under the impression that the form they gave me at my first inspection ( I thought it was just a matter of checking the engine number ) at Sturt road centre gives you and exemption. The form is called " application for exemption from the fitting of a compliance plate ". The car has been registered in QLD and is currently registered in VIC. The car has a Vin plate attached. I have paperwork from ISASO compliance centre in QLD and receipts ($1281 ) for the compliance done in July 07.

I am new to this so If you know anything that will save me a re-inspection fee , I would love to know about it.

Cheers

^^ Same here. My car doesn't need compliance plate either. People from canberra that do compliancing told me my car never got one cause it was imported under some old scheme... and my car was imported sometime in mid-2005. I don't get it, cause I know many cars imported in 90's that have compliance plate... but as long as they're fine with it I dont care...

Yeah, the differences between SEVS and RAWS (15 year rule which no longer applies)

Not quite sure what the diff is but I think the cars imported under the 15 year old rule can get away with a little more...

-D

I took my car to Vehicle inspection and not the regency place. They're right near eachother though. My car just got imported from Japan and all it needed was a Vehicle Inspection. It's on Narweena (sp) St Regency. There were plenty of interstate cars there being checked. Maybe give them a call and see what you need to do?

    • Remove it. Certainly from the hub face. I'm not in love with leaving it on the wheel assembly surface either - but if it is common to do so, then....maybe fair enough. It's not difficult. Just time consuming. For the hub face you just need a large enough block and suitable grades of abrasive paper to get it off flat. The same would be true of the assembly face. Just more time consuming, probably needing a lot more care. It's defo going to be easier just to assemble the wheels as is, seal them up, and check them periodically to see if there's any movement or loosening of the fasteners, than it will be to remove it though.
    • Hello, I got my wheels powder coated and they've powder coated bloody everything the mating surface and hub (even told them not to lol) anyway should I leave it or remove it. (Would be very hard) I've searched a lot and lots of powder coaters don't mask the mating surface but do mask the hub surface. How bad it powder coat on the mating surface or hub? My question is what should I do?
    • Yeah, R34 with RB25DE likely has a 4AX01 box in it, which is a medium duty auto ~ with the RB25DET mill, it would've been fitted with 4AX00 (4AX13) heavy duty build (same case, different internals). An RB25DET will lunch on a medium duty 4R01 auto in pretty short order ...to give you some visual idea of differences between the 'medium' and 'heavy duty' boxes, you only have to look at the 2/4 band for comparison...it's chalk and cheese...(plus bigger high clutch, extra pinion in the planetary sets, higher oil pump output, different bearings, higher TC stall speed )... You can control them with just about any aftermarket TCU for electric-over 4-speed with TC lockup clutch (ie; the GM 4L60E and others)...I have a custom standalone TCU that includes MAP sensor (for turbo applications) along with TPS, RPM, and line pressure monitoring...in other words, I don't use any ECU signals...no real need to.
    • If you want to do the wiring, the GTT engine ecu has the same pinouts extra that the seperate TCM in the NA car has. You can literally grab the wires/pins that lead into the Seperate TCM and wire them into the corresponding pins in the GTT Engine ECU. You could then in theory Nistune it. I realised this when everyone put it in the too hard basket and I actually looked at the f**kin R34 manual. This is after I had previously had a seperate aftermarket TCM controller in my original N/A chassis car and a very built gearbox from a GTT, running a seperate Haltech engine ECU. I ran into this issue when I re-shelled the car into a GTT shell, so my aftermarket TCM was no longer plug and play, because the loom/modules were not present. I was pretty livid when realizing just how simple the original fix actually was. It sat for 3+ years at various workshops trying to find a solution. In practice none of this is a worthwhile idea for a lot of reasons, generally surrounding the shitness of the NA auto, the autos in general that come with skylines, and the NA engine and lack of gains. The gearbox is specced for the 2.5L N/A and barely at that level. If you have to pay anyone any money to do any of this, that is money spent on manualizing the car and it's not even close in terms of a comparison. Learning to drive manual is simpler than going through the pain of dealing with the N/A gearbox and he'll have fun to boot.
