Hey guys, ive got a car that i need to get complied but im not exactly sure what needs to be done to it...

its had the side intrusion bars done in the doors. its got all new tyres and will have new seatbelts and exhaust as well soon. changed the pod for original airbox. i think i have to change the fuel filler aswell.

im looking to get the compliance done myself. the car falls under the 15 year rule aswell...

it doesnt need child restraints as the car is only a two seater.

i live in south australia and the car is a mazda rx7 fc convertible. (i know its not a skyline but good help is hard to find, so why not ask some import lovers :)

any help would be appreciated, Thanks Brendan...

sounds pretty good what you're listed already.

Just to clarify, you imported this car before the 15 year scheme changed to the pre '89 scheme, right? Or is it a pre-89 anyways?

Brendan, you'll need to go into TransportSA and ask for a Statement of Requirements.

They've got generic forms that go through the ADRs you'll need to meet to get the car registered, but unfortunately they're not available anywhere else apart from Regency, from what I can gather. Perhaps try your local first.

yeah im pretty sure its either an 86 or an 88... do you know if i just take the car to regency and they fit the compliance plate?

Thanks...

They do an identity check there too, I believe, but Iron Chef is your best resource for this.

Also, the pre-89 scheme is supposed to come in with an import approval from DOTARS, did you get this? Or possibly it was imported before 2004?

    • Took it to all Japan day. Thrashed it all day and it will still drive home. Very very happy man right now 
    • Hey Nismo, any chance in the world you still have these seats?
    • I'd say closer to OG GTX3582R, just smaller trim - so 59mm inducer/82mm exducer as opposed to 62/82 for the first gen GTX3582R. Yeah EFRs were boss, the EFR8474 is still an absolute beast and it perplexes me that people still go to things like Turbosmart/Garrett etc when the results people are getting with those are pretty unremarkable compared to what you could get with a turbo available well before those options came out.  DriftSquid (I think) "upgraded" from an EFR9174 to a Turbosmart turbo and promised a comparison video - and kinda shuffled awkwardly and did a bit of diversion from the fact that they didn't get any improvement going to the currently massively hyped brand of turbo from a turbo that was a bit of a frankenstein that had been well superceded in it's own range before the Turbosmart unit he put on there even came out. I suspect the EFR would outperform most Xonas for what a lot of less-insane RB owners would go for, in the 400-600kw range but the Xonas are looking hard to beat up to maybe in the mid 700kw range at this stage- basically where EFRs don't really reach, and before the Precision turbos take over.  What the Xonas do well in the "EFR range" is be easier to package etc, and work very well if a divided housing doesn't suit your application.  
    • Are you sure the gasket is blown? What are the issues? Thermocure is the only flush I've seen do anything with rust, very impressed with that, Prestone, rust will be by the pool having a cigarette.  
    • And since the flush you have a blown head gasket? Have you lifted the head off yet?
