OMBUDSMEN! fight for no compliance fees !

Probably would never work :(

I'm in the same boat. Except my compliance shop refuses to communicate with me at all and has never called me back.

I am going to my workshop in the morning and am considering a commonwealth ombudsman case with DOTARS if they are the issue.

One of my mates previously worked at Vehicles imports at Dept of Infrastructure blah blah blah. He said it is a very shit process and pretty much up to the person working through the applications to decide how long they take. He came across a number of cases where if it was up to him, they would be approved but because of a paper work error or the process of application was incorrect, they would be sent back to start all over again. He mentioned a person that had imported a mobility scooter (or something) for the elderly that wasn't approved due to process and was sent away to apply again.

Another thing to consider is what is happening in the Government with the employment freeze. A lot of departments have a higher work load than they are accustomed too.

Anyway, plenty of R34's are in the country so it'll get through eventually.

Cheers for the insight mate.

It seems a couple of people are in the same boat as me but it's annoying that an error with the paper work was made when clearly there is a huge backlog and things are going to take time. If that was the case you would think they would triple check paper work before sending it off.

Oh well not much I can do but wait

Hunting the perfect base colour.......

The gold pearl will lighten it up slightly, so i have to pick a darker green for the base.

The aim is to get it no lighter than Holden poison ivy, a little darker would be perfect.

Toyota spruce green 6v4 looks nice and dark, but it has brown in it.

Looking for a real dark green thats not brownish.

There are so many to look through, any suggestions would be welcome.

That colour will deffo separate the R32 from others. Will you be putting new shoes on the ol' gal or keeping your currents? Gold would look nice with that colour :)

Stumbled across my cousins drift vid:

His R31 Supercharged - he is currently working towards super turboing it I believe.

17x9 +35, federal rsr 235/40 front & 255/40 rear, guards lipped to fit.

And a bit of bog to smooth them out, cos im not that good with the guard roller.

Might go with a 50 profile next set of tyres, more grip.

I believe that is both for fuel return from the rail and ventilation to the carbon canister.

      Hello Everyone

      By luke gtr · Posted

      Welcome.  Glad to hear that you have gained some knowledge that has helped you. I believe the only fix for the power steer belt is an electric conversion with a Holden astra pump. If you get a chance, post pics of your car, please. 🙂

      to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?

      Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
