This article suggests that if a car club in Victoria accepts a LHD vehicle as a 'classic,' then it can be given club rego and that the 25 year 'rule' is merely a guide. Any thoughts on this? I know that most of the LHD current model Camaros are engineering mules but this guy claims some actualy have Victorian Club Permits. Also, I saw an Alfa Romeo 8C convertible, LHD, in Brighton a few weeks ago (yes, 100% sure that's what it was...). Didn't appear to have any plates but it got me thinking (obviously it's not here for engineering purposes because they're not planning to make that many).

Anywho, another question, why I got onto this is because I was looking at the mid 80s, $7,000 C4 Corvettes in America. I know you can get club plates for over 25 year old LHDs and full rego for over 30s. I also know that you cannot bring a new car into Australia and let it age until 30 and then get full rego. But, I want to know if you get club rego on a 25 year old car whether you can then graduate to full rego in 5 years time.

good question. to be honest you really need to ask that question in the only 2 places whose opinions count. first one is DIT (was DOTARS) and the second one is your states registration authority (Vic Roads). I'm not sure anyone on here will know a 100% answer and for something like this you really need the info straight from the source.

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      GReddy Injector Help!

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?

      Hello, I am looking to replace my two rear drive shafts in my R34 N/A Skyline but I'm finding conflicting information. Do S13/S14/S15 or R32 NA/ R33 NA fit? https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-rear-drive-shaft-l-h-nissan-silvia-s13-s14-s15-3x2-type?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqY7EwDaYCUoUU3mxxZ_qrUXkVVHiV4MIN7ozoar6scjnEiekv- would this fit?
