Hi everyone,

As topic said, I want to transport my Nissan Dualis from Perth to Brisbane.

If anyone can input some information, that would be great (With license, rego, etc.).

FYI, I might be moving to Brisbane for work for indefinitely in the next 2-3 months. :( (I will miss you guys)

Thank you.

i have done the vic - perth then back again.

Cant speak for the QLD rego system but here you provide 12+ months of ownership and they transfer it on the spot without a pits check. May have the same set up there?

I have used CEVA (use to be TNT) for my transport but there are heaps of companys out there (most removels companys will do it along with your belongings). Keep in mind that a Dualis will cost a bit more being a '4X4' and sits on the upper deck of the train carrage. Thats either good or bad depending on how you look at it, more chance of a rock hitting it but my car was on the lower deck and it was covered in brake dust/dirt by the time it got here.

Also if its just for a shord time to start with then most states let you stay on you current rego for about 3 months before you 'have to change it over'.

Hope that helps

Thanks, Null.

I just bought the Dualis last December so it won't be a year when I transport it. I am just worried rego transfer and pit check is not much hussle. It's stock so would be fine. The price doesn't matter, as my company is going to handle that, along with my belongings.

Another thing just came in mind, I am putting on my personal plate onto Dualis. Will that be gone if the car gets its rego transfers?

Thanks again.

Again dont know the QLD system but if you do have to do their version of the pits then its not too bad just takes time i guess.

Our Rav had personal plates on it (Vic) and no you dont get to keep them. We had the car for 5+ years with the plates so money wise its not a loss but if you just got your's then it will be. If the combonation is available i say you will be able to get them done in QLD but ofcourse you will have to pay again.

Let us know how you go VNS as Im looking into moving to brisbane also

Hi Chris, it should be exciting.

One thing for sure is everything is cheaper there. I was looking at renting houses online and I can get a good 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 car port house for AU$300-$400, which in Perth is quite impossible. Car prices are cheap, as well as food.

I should be going for training for a week soon, and will experience first hand how Brisbane city is. :)

      Fixing exhaust position?

      By PranK · Posted

      I once hit my knee on an exhaust on my sisters Suzuki Sierra after she drove it her *normal* way. My knee looked like porridge for weeks. Bec and my daughters never go near this car. I can see one of my dogs losing an ear though. 🤔

      Nice, love a good GTS-t.  IMHO the factory body kit with the 'aero' front bumper is perfect. Can't improve on it unless it's a GT-R. But it looks like you changed it to the normal bumper?

      Easy solution to both of those. Put a split bit of garden hose on each one. Attractive and practical!

      Use text replace function to auto-link to referred threads?

      So I guess the next thing to do will be to discuss whether to create a new section of the forums to hold the library (boo hiss?), somewhat undoing the recent tidy up, or if there is a bolt on wiki module for Invision? (I must profess ignorance as to what has been done, what it might cost, etc. I have only briefly googled and seen discussion on adding it.) Or is a wiki even the best way to do what I'm talking about? It possibly isn't. Given that we're trying to re-display forum content, it probably needs to be presented as forum content in forum format, and a wiki would probably struggle with that. A wiki might still be the best way to do some other things, so I'll keep the idea simmering if we don't use it here. Back to the library as "part of the forums". Would we do a single new library? Or put a library thread in each section? Pluses and minuses for each of these, surely. Would we do as I originally suggested, and make the first post in the library be the total of the library, with any reply posts just being the inputs and suggestions I originally posited? Or would we allow posts to accumulate one after the other, each containing additions to the library? Maybe the first post is still an index or something. It's all sounding horribly more manual and messy than my original brain fart. But I hope there's some other good ideas floating around - because every time I come up with a new one of my own I immediately see problems with it.

      Tips look fine to me......but Boring stuff: Legalities - Vehicle standards notes that exhausts cannot extend to a point where they could cause injury Scary stuff: Mrs cuts open her shin putting stuff in the boot (ensure you have some bandaids and shiny jewellery handy)
