i have a skyline r33 gts - t. The car was stolen and the compliance plates where pinched. They took all three of them so it has none. Vic roads says i can't get them replaced. . Another issue is that the car has had a new motor put in in it. ( still an RB25det) . So the engine numbers don't match either. This would not be a huge problem however i let the car become unregistered and now i want to re -register it. I notified the police and vic roads when it was stolen i told them the compliance plates where missing. have i got any chance of registering this car . thanks any help would be great.

I Don't know about vic, but in sa you gotta get an ID check and they check engine number and VIN. if the engine number doesn't match what they have on their system you gotta get a full inspection. You will have to get this anyway since you now no longer have compliance plates. I doubt having the different engine will matter since it is still an rb25. But yeah you will have to get an exemption from having compliance plates.

hope this helps

so you own a car with no id and want to register it?

not to be a downer here but whats to say you didnt buy a car directly from japan and try to dodge compliance.

no id = no rego. make a track car out of it :)

yeah the police might have it on their records that the compliance plates where stolen . they know i did have a white skyline coupe registered. can't they just look it up under my name and see that it is the same car. i'm desperate i know !

Hi.

If the car has previously been registered and regardless of no plates it should still have the vin number stamped into the firewall. If so the registration people have a record of the car.You should be able to sort out registration if this is the case.

That is why you see cars listed as a statutory write off, with not a single scratch... Apart from that, one of the most knowledgeable importers on here has answered, and you appear to know that he is correct.. face the facts, if the car was insured it should have been written off, pay your premium, get your money, and move on

really?????are we aware that if a vehicle is registered in someones name then it gets re-registered without a vic roads sighting??????just rwc and paperwork as they have you on file as the previuos owner.....there is no one that knows everything.....i just done mine with no sighting...... after 6 years i might add

I've just been through the exact same thing in Sa, I was able to get the car re registered with an exemption of compliance plate form from transport SA.

I was issued with a brand new vin number attached to a police report if I have any problems. I did have to fight very hard to get this and the compliance plates where removed by police SA becauses they thought it was a stolen vehicle.

So in SA it is possible, just by filling in a form and going from there.

Iron Chef, is it due to the engine swap that he has no chance? I would find it hard to believe that any car that has the compliance plates stolen, simply becomes a write off.

Would he be able to get the car checked by an engineer, signed off and then given new vin/chassis numbers etc? How do people build up hot rods from a mixture of parts and get them registered?

Australian laws are messed up even more than I thought if there really is no way to get this car back on the road, even if it costs an arm and a leg.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.

      By MissMintyR33 · Posted

      Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.

      The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
