Nup!

Plenty of cars I see at supersprints and hill climbs are unreg :)

as long as it meets and passes scruitineering and you are in the correct class - you'll have no dramas with it at sueprsprints, hillclimbs, motorkhanas etc etc

Second part, no idea sorry!

I am not sure about Dutton, but Targa you can get temporary rego and you run on targa plates so long as it passes scrutiny.

As for hillclimbs temporary rego if you want to drive it to the event, or just trailer it out. These events are all on closed roads so you do not have to comply with road rego.

If the car is uncompliable then no complience plates and no chassis number. These have to be removed.

And most club level stuff any un-reg car is welcome as mentioned, My old R34 was uncompliable and i had no robs entering.

I have never heard of it needing to be log booked to need to compete though?

Have a read of the sup regs:

1st is NSW H/Climb Champs

SDMA_15_Feb_Supp_Regs_FINAL.doc

2nd is NSW S/Sprint sup regs:-

R2_Supp_Regs.pdf

If the car is unregoed and you were serious then a log book would be an advantage.

You really need to sift through the cams manual as well. good luck on that one.

Hope this helps.

Neil.

thats not quite true.

a whole car can't be imported for parts. it needs to be cut in half first, so you will notice if it is a genuine "for parts" import

race or rally imports can be brought in and will retain their original japanese vin. my car fits this category and has nsw rally rego despite being uncompliable.

properly complied cars will have an aussie vin on a plate. normally starts with 0u69. Will also have a jap vin.

any car without a (jap and/or aus) vin should be assumed to be stolen.

Or a whole car can be imported as a parts car if it has had, both front and rear sub frames removed, including engine/gearbox/tailshaft.

It's 6U9 then 0's then the original chassis number to make a total of 17 digits. ie. 6U9000BNR32001234 in that case the original nissan chassis number was BNR32001234 and DOTARS added 6U9000 to it.

      Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c

      I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......

      I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.

      IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
