Stamp duty is 4% of total purchase. So for example a car you buy for $10,000 you will need to pay $400 stamp duty (in victoria). When I called up a few insurance companies to ask about the "market value" of skylines, I was told that since they are imported the usual "market value" price estimate is not available, but that really doesnt matter, on the registration form you can pretty much write down the purchase price as anything, Im just taking a wild guess but since your car is a 89 R32 GTST (assuming its just imported) you may have paid around $7000 for it? Just right down that price, pay the $280 and bobs ur uncle!

Well in NSW... and taken from NSW RTA website...

"You pay stamp duty on the market value of the vehicle or on the price you paid for the

vehicle, whichever is higher. Stamp duty is 3% of the market value of the car, up to

$45,000 then 5% on the value over $45,000."

So say if the stamp duty is based on $8000 you will pay $240 stamp duty.

Hope that helps.

Just quote the purchase price, if they think its too low, they'll send you a letter. But as the car is moe than 15 years old, they probably wont care.

When i bought my r32 2 years ago for $16.5k, they wrote me a letter saying that was too cheap! Ends up they looked up the aus delivered R32 GTR as its the only skyline on the system. I just wrote them a letter back and it was all fine.
