    Need Some Questions Answered..

    in Importing Vehicles

    Posted

    strictly speaking yes you can import a race only vehicle and register it as a rally car and under that registration it can be driven to and from workshops and to and from events (be them circuit events or tarmac rally events like targa tasmania). if you think however you are getting a cheap road car and plan to use it as you please then think again, the rules are very strict on how you can and cannot use such a car. also to import one you will need a cams NR or NC (national rally or national circuit) licence, some competition history and a clear plan of competition for the car you aim to import. to be honest given that R32 GTRs are quite cheap to comply and the only cost difference between importing a race/rally car and a road car is compliance and rego I would just comply and register it. it will do wonders for the re-sale value of the car, and then you can drive it on the road whenever you please.

    to consider buying a race only vehicle you'd want to be pretty serious about your motorsport as it's a lot of money for a car you can really only drive on the circuit or in events and you will NEVER be able to fully register the car as with a race/rally import approval it will never be able to be complied and no you cannot change than once the car is here.

    thanks, no i dont plan on drivin it daily. ive got a work car for that. ive worked in motorsport (namely drag racing) for the last couple of years. ideally i want to go drag racing, maybe go round a circuit.

    Iron Chef - thanks heap mate, I can understand your quite busy, heard some good things about you, hopefully you can help me out!

    R32 Brake System On A U13 Bluebird?

    in Suspension, braking and tyres

    Posted

    i saw in the latest ZOOM mag, that they had jus fitted a full R32 brake system to their Soarer, and it got me thinkin, could i do that to my Bluebird? i reckon it would b much better than the stock brakes on the car now... and also, how hard would it be to convert a fwd to rwd, with turbo??? im thinkin of swappin out the SR20DE, and puttin the SR20DET in. whats ur opinion???

    in General Automotive Discussion

    Posted

    Hey guys,

    after seeing the Bresciani boys gaining success, (and also due to the fact that i've always wanted 2 own my own business), i have decided 2 eventually open my own automotive workshop.

    It will be called

    "DESVAUX AUTOMOTIVE"

    OR

    "SD AUTOMOTIVE"

    this business will eventually be running in the next decade or so...

    it will be especially for high performance cars only

    and not just V8's...lol

    yeah..

    so watch out for it...

    feel free to reply back with your comments...

    cheers...
