Hi guys,

I've been searching all day and night for some answers but couldn't quite find what i was looking for. Well basically my brother in Qld is sending me his r33 gtst down here to sydney, NSW. Now i know to register it in NSW i'll have to get a blue slip, pink slip, green slip then rego, but the thing is, the car is highly modified (roll cage, rb26 swapp, aftermarket this and that...) and therefore i'll need an engineers certificate to pass the blue slip. The other thing though is that in Qld the mods are plated and is registered and onroad, but knowing what NSW is like i dont think i'll be able to get an engineers certificate and get it registered here. So my question is since the mods were plated in qld will i be able to use that as like an engineers certificate in NSW?

I suppose the other option is to leave it registered under his name in qld and drive it down here in NSW but then again is there a time limit the car is allowed to stay down here but registered in qld? and say if i could keep the car down here would i have to bring the car back to qld every year for a pink slip so the rego could be renewed?

Thanks

Ken

Hi Chris (Evil_Weevil),

You replied to my post two days ago i thiink but it got erased when the server went down and i can't PM you because i haven't posted more than 10 yet. I wanted to ask when you got your car engineered did it have a roll cage? Because my friend told me today that we cant engineer roll cages in NSW? Thanks

Cheers

Ken

i think you can but it can only be a half cage. dont hold me to that though.

    • Thanks Duncan! Yeah it's street use for me only. Maybe occasional track day. Any difference in noise when running with the two pumps? I would expect the lift pump to be more quiet than the main pump so hopefully not? And yes, unfortunately quite a big price difference to the simple hanger setup. Though I'm usually willing to trade money for better reliability and future-proofing. Buy once, cry once and all that. I'd be very happy to never have to deal with fuel pump / wiring issues again  
    • The old manifold was quite under the GTR strut brace.  The new manifold is quite [unknown] the GTR strut brace. The GTR strut brace was needed to clear the bonnet vents. The Old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, but not the bonnet vents. The old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, and the new bonnet without vents. But I am hoping the GTR strut brace clears the new manifold :p
    • On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.
    • So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.
