What happens is that the figures are all uploaded to State Revenue... if yours sticks out they will investigate and give you a minor fine if you can't prove it.

With mine, there was such a myriad of paperwork inc. FOB charges, duty, shipping and all that, they just gave up and accepted my figure.

They're not interested in chasing up little people like us.

If you import a 1961 Ferrari and say it's $50,000 rather than $250,000 well then yes, they'll f**k you over.

However a $10,000 R33 that is more likely $15,000??? No point.

yeah but cant u argue that you bought it off a mate etc, and he wasnt going to give it to you free, but was extremely generous and sold it to you ridiculously cheap...shit like that!

But the tax is still on the GREATER of the 2 values. If your mate sells you the car for $5,000, but market value is $15,000, you should still pay the tax on the $15,000. (Remember if you kill someone a good lawer can get you off, but if you steel from the Government you have got real trouble, they can and will persue you through every court in the land untill it is cheaper to pay the fine than the legal costs)

so you're trying to tell me that anyone who buys a S2 R33 GTS-T should pay the same amount of stamp duty based on a set market value

what a crock of shit. the range of vehicles that all fit under the 1 category can vary so much that you cannot do it that way

if you are lucky and get a good deal on a car, you pay the amount of stamp duty that that purcahse price attracts

I have used the lower price myself, what I am saying is that the wording is "GREATER of Market or purchase price" - if you put a price that is TOO low you can be prosecuted. So long as you dont abuse it too much you should be OK.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
