Hay guys

Im looking at buying an un rego'd skyline that needs a bit of tlc and putting it over the pits. the owner said the car was rego'd in WA and got a yellow sticker for a illeagal mod and so the owner handed in the plates and used the car for the track. now its not that far from stock so returning to reasonable condition isnt a bother its weather the pits will let an un rego'd import to be licensed again and how to know if the owner is telling the truth (I will ask for rego papers) but the main thing is the pits and if there will be any hassles any of you had trouble.

cheers

what was the illegal mod? it will have to be returned to stock.. if it was a cheap part i'd be wondering why it wasnt remoived.. especially to sell later on..

the car has to be in roadworthy condition for it to be rego'd again.. if there are lots of worn out parts, etc it may end up costing a bit to get in good condition..

it was yellowed for the front mount exhaust and some other small bits. the car is not that hard for me to return to stock because i have a spare wreck so that no problem i was wondering if the pits have an issue with re licenseing imports and what happen if it was bought in under the personal imports rule it wont have a complience plate hw will the pits deal with that. (the car was licensed i cant see a complience plate any where) where are complience plates on r32's on silvia theres a big green plate on the fire wall.

won't have a problem with re-rego.. as long as it passes roadworthy.. ask for compliance papers and check against car.. get a workshop to look over it and see if they have issues with it/ or if it's not complianced

Yep check for compliance plates, the thing might have been brought in as a race-use only vehicle...in which case, without complying it yourself (will cost a few thousand) you won't be able to register it. May have had a vin swap or been a rebirth too. Plenty of people lie sell their problem off onto someone else.

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.
