Their is a workshop in Sydney who has RAWS already and has had his R32 tested but like everybody else waiting for the evidence to be signed off.

It takes time sorting out things like this but keep an eye on http://raws.dotars.gov.au/rawswebpublic/rawpubmain.asp and it will show you just about straight away of it being on their schedule.

A couple of people have had cars sitting in Japan waiting for a while so it is up to you it is a risk that some people are willing to take.

And no the workshop wont take deposits for plates as they dont want to lead people down the garden path.

I am currently looking for a clean R32 to add the model to our schedule but even that is hard at the moment.

Look at it this way when somebody ask's how will it take for your R32 well I just say "how long is a piece of string".

nope, at the moment no one can comply an R32. Your only options to import one right now are 15 year old, race or private imports.

A lot of workshops have chosen not to invest in compliance for them since the earliest ones can be bought in as 15 year old cars with no compliance cost, making them at least $2k cheaper. The ones who are in the process of getting it are betting that the 15yo rule will be stopped at the end of the year

We arent investing the money hoping on the 15 year rule change as we are working on the older R32's will still come in but a 92 GTR is cheaper than a 89 and not everybody want's 100,000 plus klm cars.

With compliance we are only looking at post 91 GTS-t's and 92 GTR's because of side intrusion bars so the 15 year rule wont affect us for a few years.

In the big picture on the clean car's $2,000 can make the difference of a mint and average car.

The evidence is the issue now.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
