transfer it, then 28days for RWC before reg is suspended, i assume you lost the RWC, as it is illegal for a car to be sold without one.

editing for others reference: if car is unregistered, the only time limit you have is the expiration of unreg vehicle permits, and RWC's. you dont need to transfer an unreg car as such, just reg it in your name, providing a receipt for the purchase. You make an appointment at vicroads, take in receipt, RWC, anything else they need then fingers crossed you drive away with plates on.

well no, it was sold without REGO or RWC and i had one of those permit things to drive it home and also to the mechanic etc..

so i can just go transfer it now, and when it is rwc i can get that and also rego done?

By the sounds of it since it was not sold with a RWC and you purchased it UNREG you will have to start the process again.

Get a RWC for the car within the 28 day allowance and then Register it, shouldnt have a problem if you do that.

I purchased a car in VIC last yr and had the hassle of bringing it to NSW and I learnt through that process that neither states communicate in any way with registration. NSW don't accept VIC roadworthy's and such and so on.

I had to basically register the car as if it was unroadworthy and unregistered. Time consuming and costly... Good luck with it mate.

yeah it is very time consuming! because i work all day its hard for me to get to vicroads on time!!

i was just worried, coz i thought i had to transfer it within 14 days even if it has no rego/rwc..

thanks for all the info :P

+1, nice n easy. Just more tedious than anything prolly. Though they will have different laws to be observed when on the road.

though you will need to renew ur permit for an unreg vehicle to drive it places for rwc unless u plan on trailering it.

As you didnt purchase it with REG - It means nothing now.

Essentially you could take 6 months to get it registered and VicRoads will not care.

The 14days ONLY applies for cars with REG

+1 for this. As Nismoid said, because the car was sold with no registration you can take as long as you want in getting a RWC as there is no Rego to be transfered. The only thing you need to worry about is permits that expire so you can drive the car to and from mechanics and vic roads. However you do need to get the vehicle registered within the 28 days of getting your RWC as they expire.

      Borg Warner EFR Series Turbo's V 2.0

      A few things that seem a bit off here. - why is there 2 BOV’s?  - the turbo smart BOV on the compressor housing, is it turned up ALL the way? I have seen this become an issue on old man Pete’s car. It would push open and recirc, turbo speed would rise and the boost pressure would do weird things. - stock head? Does that include springs? - tried a different MAC valve? Is it plumbed correctly?

      Photo of manifold showing gate location? I mean, it's 6Boost, so we probably shouldn't be worrying, but always wroth knowing what the layout is. Plumbed back to atmosphere? Or into the dump?

      Yes correct. Also, I'd avoid applying it to soft paint (however I doubt you'll ever have to deal with it in practice). So any paint that hasn't fully hardened, could be a 1k paint that never fully hardened or it could be a 2k paint that was laid down thick and hasn't yet fully hardened.

      Bit of an update to this one. Having some issues on the dyno that held us back (boost spiking) and I want to pass some info over you guys and see what you think is wrong with my setup. The current readout on this dyno is 462rwkw on a low reading dyno so keep in mind it is a real world 500rwkw setup on a hub dyno. Don't read into the power figure too much as a sign of the issue. The short and curly of it is: 2.8 Litre Racepace build RB25 NEO N/A Head with VCT (internally standard however ) Borgwarner EFR 8474  Turbosmart 50mm Straight Gate + Mac valve 6Boost Manifold 4" dump to full 4" exhaust (nil restrictions) Wastegate plumbed back in and all angles in the exhaust system are acceptable and not too sharp. GFB SV52 BOV in cooler piping  Turbosmart BOV in EFR Housing   The issue we are having is it comes onto full boost for example at 4000rpm and spikes to 24/25psi, before dropping down to 17psi before slowly rising back up to the target boost of 23psi. It was extremely uncontrollable and the tuner actually had to ramp in boost progrssively with each 1000rpm on each boost setting we selected to try and reduce the amount of spiking. Sometimes we would see a drop of 10psi from the peak at the beginning of the run, to the low, until it took the next 500-1000rpm to stabilise back up to the target boost. The tuner is pretty confident that the straight gate is just a poorly designed product and leaks too much boost upon cracking the gate open and theres no way to fix it other than going to a poppet valve. He's also confient theres no ignition breakdown or floating valves. The fueling is extremely stable as well. Turbo speed is somewhere around the 109,000rpm area. The spanner in the works for me is that prior to this Borgwarner and StraightGate, the car was tuned on -5 twins at a diferent tuner, and he also had issues controlling the boost with it spiking around the same rpm range, so to me this sounds like the same issue and it can't be anything on the turbo side as this was all changed and I think the behaviour is extremely similar, if not the same. We also removed the mac valve and did a run on wastegate pressure and it still spiked and had the same behaviour. My thoughts on possibilities are: Boost Leak VCT Cam Gear isn't reliably activating consistently - (On this however, we did a run with the VCT disabled and the boost still spiked) Turbosmart BOV is not handling the boost? However this seems unlikely to not be able to handle 20psi. I have a couple of logs that I can't make sense of if anybody knows how to read them and can obtain further logs of other parameters if they are not enough, happy to pay for anyones time. The dyno readout with the power figure is the most recent last week. The other picture is from two weeks prior to that where we couldn't break 400kw (we removed the cat), however the issue of the boost control persisted. @Lithium @Piggaz @burn4005 @GTSBoy @discopotato03 I've tagged those that were quite active in recent pages here, no disrespect to those that know turbos well but I missed tagging. Cheers
