If its older than 15 years you have no problem .

If not and its already in australia you will not get it complied . If still in japan there is a place in sydney that have plates for 32's now .As you are in melbourne i couldnt tell you .

Evian can you please be specific what you're after?

A compliance plate is usually riveted to the engine bay of the car and not something you need a 'holder' for. Any car coming into Australia needs one of sorts - under SEVS you get a plate, whilst under the 15 year rule a plate with the local VIN is affixed to the car.

As wrxhoon said, there is one place in Sydney that now does R32 GTST SEVS compliance work. You'd need to contact them for a price.

Right! Anyone can private message me the details for the Sydney Compliance plate R32 ...

I'm still looking in importing one. So I don't have the car with me. Also I thought the 15 Year thing is over isn't it ? You can no longer bring 15 year old cars in without compliance..? Well please correct me if I got that wrong.

You can still bring 15y.o. cars in but it can finish anytime now .

If you want to bring a 32 give me a p.m. and can put you in touch with someone in japan to buy the car for you so you dont have to pay an extra $1000 to saomeone in australia as well .

Actually Evian if you read the thread it shows the full story. The Govt has proposed a change to the 15 year rule, but it has not been officially 'gazetted' yet (published). Until it is, the current rule continues to apply and you are still able to import cars under the 15 year rule.

Ring up an importing company and ask them, im sure they all have their hands on the most up to date info. Try www.prestigemotorsport.com.au

AFAIK, the 15 year old rule is still going, and as long as you can show proof of purchase before the rule change, you can still import your car.

Hey guys, still on topic, I am considering buying a late 89' model R32 GTS-T, its already here in the country. Can I still get 15 y.o compliance on the car? I know this costs ~$1200, is there anyone who knows a good place in Brisbane to do the job? Thanks very much for any help you can offer.

    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.    
    • I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
