Hi Guys,

Just wondering what would happen if the RTA had made a discrepancy on your cars year make... EG... 1993 Skyline R32 // 2007 Skyline R32 ???

Anyone have a similiar experience? And what did you do...

Appreciate any feedback

i had something similar when i got my car

i got it from VICTORIA and when they transfered the information to the RTA the year was incorect

had to get a blue slip and then went to RTA and the laidy there made some calls and filled up some paperwork for me then waited like a week for the paperwork to be finalised for the date to be changed to the corect one

When I had to get my car registered in NSW because I bought it from VIC, the lady who served me at the RTA entered most (if not all) of the information off the Engineering Certificate and didn't blink twice.

Little bit of advise for future keep: If you have to get an engineering certificate with your blue slip, ensure the engineer has made everything and entirely accurate on the certificate he gives you. Even if he makes a mistake, it would be easy to go back and ask him to correct and reprint another copy to take with you to the RTA. The channels you have to go through with the RTA sometimes are a joke, so its always best to get it right the first time.

I noticed the engineer put SED (Sedan) down on my certificate as the car type, where I think it's meant to be Coupe. So that's what ended up on my registration.

That kind of detail didn't bother me so I just went with what I was given. However any other detail like Odo, year, model, etc I can imagine would be rather annoying.

Most likely entered the year of compliance as the year of manufacture. Happened to my old S13, advantage was that i didnt need to get a pink slip for the 1st 3 years of ownership. Didn't have any issues with rego transfer etc. Best to speak to the RTA

Thank You for your feedback guys... Much appreciated

Will it affect ones insurance if their car is registered under a 07 model where it actually is a 93 ? Would you still be OK to claim incase of any accident

not sure i would get that rectified ASAP and call your insurer and ask if they will cover as they need to have the corect details in their system otherwise you might end up with the insurer saing sorry you are meant to have a 2007 car not a 1993 car

think of it this way 2007 car will have alot more safety features than a 93 car and will be looked at diferently by insurer both cost wise and safety rating

minimum i would do is make sure the insurance company have the corect details ie 1993 model

The thing with imports is - that if the car was complied in 2007, then according to the government it was build in 2007.

Hence the build tags with complicance dates on it, because the car was built in 07 to comply with the Aussie standards.

RAWS workshops are a car manufacturer, if you go by the wording in the legislation.

It is normally ignored, but it might explain why the rego has the 07 manufacture date.

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
