Hi Guys

I have a gtr imported under the 15 year rule a while ago.

This has been off the road for years and was last registered in NSW november 2008. I have put it back together and it is nearing the stage of getting registered again.

I need tyres and a quieter exhaust made up which i can obviously organise pretty quickly.

I would like to know if i can just drive it to an exhaust place or if i need to trailer it around. I would also like advice on wether or not i need an engineers cert as there are no compliance papers, but the old rego sticker is on the window! Any advice would be good.

Thanks in advance

From memory when Jenna re-registered her car in nsw she needed import papers, old Vic rego papers, receipt for purchase of vehicle, receipt for purchase of replacement engine, signed confirmation of engine installation from mechanic (including the new engine number) and obviously blue slip and CTP.

Hers was an 89 import previously registered in Vic but rego had lapsed... call up the RTA and ask as well because this was 3 years ago.

It's a fark load of shit and you don't want to get there, wait an hour then find out you missed something!!!

on the phone just then, girl said i need a blue slip, ctp, and thats it.

wtf. I'm on hold now as i convinced her there must be something else...

She has now said although it was registered before in nsw i will need the import approval which of course is with the original owner somewhere. ><

Apparently i can ring and get it reissued.

      Speaking of diverting threads, my second ever NISMO purchase…. I think they look pretty classy and just wanted to share 😅   PS: 1st was the oil drain plug 😂

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      R12 has not been not available for....decades now. Propane is not a great replacement. (I mean, it's a great replacement, but it is a bit too flammable). R134a being the only way to go forward with an R12 system. The design pressures etc, are close enough to R12's to work. The ability to move heat around is close enough to R12's to work.

      Out of curiosity, what's the reason for converting? I think @R3N3 might have the Frenchy's kit in the R33? I somehow think of you as the ambassador for realistic and clean street-driven setups nowadays

      V35 Overheat + Coolant Boil & Overflow + Engine not Starting

      careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?

      OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
