Howdy all,

Good news, SAU NSW is underway getting signed up to the RTA's Historic Rego scheme.

Basically Historic Rego is one of the RTA's conditional rego schemes which allow specialist cars on the road.

In this case you need:

* to be a financial member of SAU NSW

* to have a car 30+ years old

* a pink slip from SAU's RTA registered inspection station (Grey Imports in Annandale)

* and pay a rego fee including greenslip under $100 (exact amount TBA).

* you do not need an engineers cert as long as the inspector deems it roadworthy

There are limitations on the use of the car, I will confirm them when we have exact details. But basically it cannot be a daily driver under this scheme. Rally rego is another type of conditional rego but you pay full rego and greenslip costs.

All we need from here is 5 club members who want to sign up. We have 2 already so if anyone has a 30 year old car only used for weekends etc and wants dirt cheap rego, let us know!

I have a 1963 R32 GTR if that counts? It was a special edition. trust me.

Duncan, can you pm me some more details as i spencer is keen to historic rego 1 or 2 of his cars.

yep good news guys, r31s will one day be eligible, because they only have to be old, not classic :P

Richard, I will post details when I get them, but if Spencer is willing to go on the list that will get us much closer.

We need the 5 cars before we can apply :)

i just spoke to spencer and he had wanted to do it with HSRCA, but they have jerked him around a bit. he will be in providing you specify that modified cars are allowed as clubs can specify either standard only, or modified.

how close nyl83r? 76 or 77?

Dino, what do you have, what age?

Richard...let me think.....hahahahahah I think we will go with modified is fine that must just be a club internal rule.

I will confirm exact usage rules when I know them

yeah, i think it's a restriction some clubs place on people. for example the alfa club says standard cars only. they also precribe what you can use the car for.

best bet is that rego is $54 INCLUDING GREEN SLIP111!!!

Duncan,

How bout a '72 HQ SS holden?? Red with the black stripes... old skool!

Sitting in the garage ready for $$ to be poured into it.

Only gets driven around now to keep the battery charged :)

Can you PM me some details?? Requirements etc

Great work btw..

    • Isn't there a fitting on the back of the balance tube? That's what the OEM boost gauge uses.
    • Getting a decent signal from all 6 throats is a challenge. I don't know for sure, but I suspect that the stock balance tube is not ideal for it. I have done it on an ALFA 4 cylinder (about 35 years ago, so don't ask for too many details). We drilled 4x holes in the manifold runners, put in some fittings and ran hoses to a decent sized (I think it was about 20mm diameter) pipe that ran the length of the inlet manifold. So, it was quite a decent volume. There is a "tuning" balance to be found between the volume of the common plenum on such a thing and the diameter of the pipes running from it to the runners. You need the volume to be large enough to damp out the sharp spikes in pressure signal you get as each runner gets sucked on by its cylinder, but not so large that it becomes too slow to respond to actual changes in MAP. And you need the hoses to be small enough to transmit the signal quickly, but not so small that they delay the signal. You might have to have more than one go at it, if there isn't any actual success based wisdom to be had here. Hopefully there is. Anyway, I would not do it on only a couple of cylinders. I would also not care about "permanently modifying a part". Just bloody drill holes and make stuff better. There is nothing sacred about any GTR unless it is a genuine museum piece that you shouldn't be modifying at all anyway.
    • He's still joining you, he's just delayed it and won't have the fulleh sick ITBs...
    • The strange thing is this is a URAS front bumper (or clone of it). The bumper actually does not sit flush with the GTT hood - You need the addon to make the hood 'long' enough to reach the bumper. I have no idea why they didn't incorporate this piece into the bumper itself.. instead of sticking it to the hood instead.
    • Another thought on this OLD topic: When you paint your bonnet lip, leave a small unpainted back lip/line along the back of the lip, where it rests on the bumper. That way, the line in the back is much more prominent than the gaps in the front/under the lip - and it breaks the hood-to-bumper connection at the "correct" place, when comparing to a GTR. I'm gonna do this with mine this week, so stay tuned for pics!
