Bringing a SA adm s15 to VIC

Hi fellows, 

First post in this forum. I'm located in Melbourne and currently looking at buying a ADM s15 located in SA. The seller says it'd be better to check if the car can be compiled in VIC beforehand to avoid hassles. So my question is that is the compliance standards in VIC and SA pretty much the same? Even they're not the same, getting a SA registered s15 on the roads in VIC wouldn't be too difficult, right? Or otherwise, what is the best way for me to check if it can be compiled in VIC?

Here is the mods list from the seller:

- 85000km

- Genuine Work Emotion XD9's (gunmetal, 18 x 9" +30)

- Genuine OEM Japanese rear bumper + rear pods

- Genuine OEM side skirts

- Genuine OEM Japanese driver side boost gauge pillar with digital boost gauge

- Whiteline front and rear sway bars

- Heavy Duty Clutch

- Tinted windows

- After market alarm (immobilizer)

- Clear side indicators

- HID headlights

- Greddy Front Mount Intercooler

- 3 inch turbo back exhaust system (Kakimoto)

- Blitz (Jap) adjustable coil overs

- Modified GT rear wing (no middle column)

- After market head unit

- Pod filter

- Strut bar

- all the standard 200sx features

 

Do you guys think this s15 can be easily registered in VIC? Or what likely needs to be done to it to get it roadworthy in VIC?

 

Thank you for your time and I appreciate any helps and efforts.

If it's an adm car as you say,  then it can be registered anywhere in Australia as it's been complied for Australian delivery. 

The mods may cause grief with getting a pre-rego roadworthy. Things like coilovers,  exhaust mods,  bovs, intercoolers, hid lights etc. could cause problems. Best of to check those things with your local authorities as I'm not familiar with Victoria regs.

Thank you for your reply warps. I'll check with Vic Roads.

    • Do the following first and get back to us. - Clean and verify your IACV - Verify for vacuum leaks/post MAF leaks. (Pressure test is the best and cheapest way) - Do you have a BOV with stock ecu/MAF? If so, remove it.     
    • Hey all, The skyline I have is stalling when the engine is at normal operating temp.  When starting it while it is cold, it'll run just fine.  I have replaced the battery (bad cell), I have replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter and clean the MAF sensor.  Any other suggestions?
    • Thanks for all the information on this.  I tried ordering the parts from Amayama website and all 3 Solenoids are discontinued and not available.  Does anyone have any other websites to suggest that I could find the parts?   Separate issue-- I will start a new thread, but basically the vehicle is stalling when warmed up.
    • It's unfortunate what Tomei USA has done to Tomei's name in general. I'm very weary of ordering parts from them now. I only order direct from a Japanse source (e.g Nengun). At least their logos are different, so you end up knowing what you have. 
    • Update Issues 5 (plus #4) - 10 After making a claim about issue #4's missing part, DeAgostini Japan sent a whole new issue #4 and it arrived about 2 weeks after that. That was back in early March. It took another 4 weeks to receive issues 5 - 13 though. This update is for issues 5 - 10. Ove the 5 issues the front left suspension and most of the engine have been completed. The quality of the castings and fit of the parts is quite good, it seems better than DeAgostini's BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the Fast & Furious 2 movie, which (to me anyway) doesn't seem to have as tight tolerances or quite as accurate castings.  Each issue has a lot of info about the 1989 - 1993 Skyline range and other Nissan models from that era, but the focus is on the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo and the various racing it did in Japan, Europe (Spa 24hrs) and of course Australia. I've included some text translated with Google Lens in some photos and will add to them if there's anything worth including.
