  1. A transfer of registration/ownership form is usually what's signed by both parties when a registered vehicle changes hands. However, this form is only applicable if the vehicle is staying registered during the sale. Otherwise, a signed piece of scrap paper saying you bought x vehicle from x person for x amount is enough to declare you the legal owner of an unregistered vehicle, assuming it has no financial encumbrance caveat against it or is not currently registered in another state to someone else who hasn't signed that scrap paper. Likewise for the person you're wanting to onsell it to. So in that regard, it's not going to make much difference to your new prospective buyer whether it's registered in your name or unregistered; either scenario will require them a visit to VicRoads with proof of ownership (being the scrap paper receipt or a transfer of registration/ownership form) and a RWC. A roadworthy certificate has to be presented anytime a vehicle changes hands, however, they are valid for a certain number of days (90?), so should you onsell the vehicle within a couple of months after registering it yourself, you'll save your buyer arranging a RWC. Now, if registering it under your name first...it's up to you if you want to take the risk of wasting your time (worst case VicRoads will say no)...but there existed a bit of a loophole years ago (may still be around), where if an ACT/NSW vehicle was sold to a Victorian owner, the national database would place it under their Victorian name and address while still registered in NSW. Why is this noteworthy? Because if it's already in your name when you rock up to VicRoads for registration, you don't need a roadworthy certificate, as you were the owner in NSW and all you did was "move" states. Friend of a friend pushed a stupidly modified, illegally loud and not exactly drivable GTR into VicRoads and came out the other end with numberplates on it this way.
  2. Factory manual LSD removed from a 2003 V35 350GT 6 speed with 130,000km on it. This diff is in very good condition with no noises or vibrations - removed from a running vehicle, not a crashed or thrashed one. Diff is currently at my mechanic's workshop. We removed and replaced it with another one due to suspected diff bearing noise, however the noise persisted after the swap and turned out to be a wheel bearing instead. Cheap LSD upgrade for auto V35s, with a slightly shorter ratio for better acceleration. I believe it may fit the 350Z too (can't guarantee this). There are also conversion kits available to make these fit S/R chassis vehicles (have to change tailshaft, though) as a strength/LSD upgrade. Can organise postage at buyer's expense or local pickup available from Melbourne west or south east. $350
  3. Just seems ridiculous to compare a 60k car to a 30k one, so thought I'd join in the fun. As for questionable reliability...well...10 years without missing a beat at that power level. But even new VWs are "questionable". The other 45k saved ought to more than cover anything that goes wrong until the other cars drop to the same value ?
  4. The 1995 R33 GTS-T with 450hp is a bargain at 13k...when a few people here purchased their Q60 for $59k and only got 400hp And tuning is happening in Oz!
  5. Because they probably have twice the mileage ? I reckon it's funny there are still 20-25yo+ Jap cars getting around with under "100,000" on the clock
  6. This is really clean and well taken care of, love the detail in your ad - glws!
  7. In the 88E world moving forward means time to sell cause dinosaur killing meteor on the way
  8. It was friggen loud and smelled like burning electronics or something after passing me lol, not a good smell
  9. What's overpriced to you? Maybe define a range you're looking to spend cause there's a broad range on these things and overpriced or condition are pretty subjective I'd also wager almost all for sale from here are up on carsales too
  10. Came across an orange one tonight..started to catch and overtake me on the on-ramp before I backed off, which the new mustangs just don't do. Numberplate JCKHMR was a clue https://www.mustangmotorsport.com.au/build_packages/roush-performance-vehicles/2018-roush-jackhammer/ Surprised it wasn't faster given those paper stats.
  11. I found @joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo a new sports car...just seems to tick every box
  12. Are Unique exxy? Or sliding scale depending on the work?
  13. I think that's what Palmer is trying to target with all his ads that seem to split progressive and conservative values down the middle; but not sure their execution is all that good or resonating with the centrists
  14. You appear to be a socialist only slightly intolerant of gays and change, comrade
  15. You've aged, welcome to the dark side.. Insert that quote about being conservative at age 20 and having no heart, or liberal at age 40 and having no brain.
  16. That or around that from memory^ They were pretty low rates as I wanted something very street friendly at the time.
  17. I might give FB groups a go Last time I did that through Leesh's account and the first two buyers were "Send me your address" and the atypical "Do you still have this?" followed by no response. I assume the latter is people scoping out their options and then choosing one other than yours.
  18. I can understand him wanting to turn his caveat emptor risk into mine - once he's done his home garage swap and given them his speed bump test or cleared his ride height defect before inevitably returning them to me. So I inherit his risk, a lot of time wasting and no sale. Condition should be a decent giveaway by looking at them to ascertain mileage or treatment and chances of them functioning as they should. But there's a reason second hand gear sells for half of new - I wouldnt buy shocks with any other assumption than the possibility of needing a revalve and factoring that into cost. Same with second hand fuel injectors and cleaning/replacing o rings, filters etc.
  19. I tried but your mother wouldn't go out on consignment
