Hey guys,

does anyone know how long the compliance process takes?

my car arrived on the 14th of June to Australia, it's in compliance now, and its oviously been there for over a week. I just wanna get an estimate as to how much longer i have to wait to see it! :)

Thanks, any help is appreciated.

personally I tell people 4 weeks. gov turn around on paperwork and also nidrie's turnaround on providing plates are both highly variable. so yeah as quick as 2 weeks as long as 4 should be about right. I know it's hard but try not to call the poor buggers every day to ask how it's going. believe me as soon as it's ready they'll call you. they do want to get paid after all.

Mine took literally 2 days to comply, including installing the FM Expander, and then they waited about 10days for the compliance plate to arrive. I was happy until I found out today that the next boat from Brisbane to Perth is on the 9th of July. :(

Quick unrelated question (please dont get mad), I am guessing that the car will have only been driven a very small amount in the months leading up to arriving in Perth, so would people suggest just filling it up with a tank of BP Ultimate or having it serviced?? When I bought my Series 8 RX7 the dealer said that it still had Japanese fuel in it, which he said is much higher quality than Australian Fuel, so I should fill it up with 98 octane straight away. I am guessing/hoping that the Compliance Workshop would have changed the oils and other fluids but this is something that I havent really thought about until now. I actually thought that I was just paying a couple of thousand $$$ to have a plate bolted to the engine bay....can anyone tell me if they should be doing what you could almost call a "minor service" on it?

Cheers

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      By PotatoCake · Posted

      Exhaust end of this month, and then tune after that whenever there is availability. Still tossing up between a pure 98 tune or a flex 98/e85 combo.  The (lack of) milage in e85 isnt great. Start to get anxiety if i go for a long drive and there arent any united servo's nearby

      I mean I can be OCD'y but this is really over the top. At that point why not just run a full wideband fuel controller? Especially if you run 3 widebands. The system works pretty well, which is trimming low load stuff to be within a few percent of the base map. Pre-engine _change_ the base map was only 1-2% off, depending on ambient temp, elevation, etc. Under load the LS is really very straightforward to tune, enough that a wideband closed loop would be overkill. If I really cared (and I hope I don't) I can always just go back to the MAF system the car actually came with. Which does all those nice calculations for me (temp, altitude, etc), now that you can buy 102mm MAF's that do not cause restrictions.

      I'd be installing 2x widebands and using the NB simulation outputs to the ECU.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      Nah, it's different across different engines and as the years went on. R32 era RB20, and hence also RB26, the TPS SWITCH is the idle command. The variable resistor is only for the TCU, as you say. On R33 era RB25 and onwards (but probably not RB26, as they still used the same basic ECU from the R32 era), the idle command is a voltage output of close to 0.45V from the variable resistor.
