SEVS Compliance for r32s?

[pentae]

Hey Guys,

I read on prestige that SEVS compliance was within grasp for r32s.

Does anyone have any further knowledge about this?

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".

Anyone wanna fill me in on whats going on here?

I thought you could always comply an r32 so why is it with in grasp if you could always comply one?

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.
