Need A Driver...merrylands Areas, Top Dollar For 10 Mins Drive


Recommended Posts

yeah but i'm pretty sure you are allowed to drive an unregistered car to a place specifically for work related to its repair and road worthiness aslong as it is withing a certain distance of the origin.

cant recall the details

Your right, you don't need a permit, they are only for travelling long distances without insurance/rego ect...

if it needs a blue slip you can drive it to your closest blueslip mechanic, if it needs rego you can drive it to your closest RTA. Providing you have all the documents with you that you are going to need to get blue slip/rego done.

I did it yesterday on a car without any numberplates and it sticks out like red dogs balls, I even drove past a general duties officer and he didn't do anything.

If you know someone with a trade plate, that might help.

I drove an 8tonne truck from Auburn to Appin with a trade plate, it was passed the blue slip....... needed a new engineers cert.

waraka

can mod please edit out my mobile number in the first post, than delete this thread thanks.

getting lots of prank calls?

oh and how did it go? would have done the whole thing for 40 bucks...

Driving an unregistered and uninsured vehicle is also an offence attracting on the spot infringement notice fines of at least $1012 ($506 for being unregistered and $506 for being uninsured). If the matter goes to court, the maximum fine is $2200 for driving unregistered and $5500 for driving uninsured.

Not heaps relevant, but unreg is now $516, and uninsured is also $516. and if you're a real smartass, there's a "not pay road tax" which is also $516.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
