me and a mate are thinking of purchasing a car. from auction in australia. Its damaged (as its our project car), it has been registered and still has the rego plates on it, but the compliance plates are missing.

Are you able to get them remade?

If so you how much?

Any advice would be helpful.

the question is did the plate fall off, or has it been removed for some reason? ie has the car been written off? if so you may not be able to repair. and re-register it. If you just want it as a spares car or track car, that is no problem, but if you want it as a street car you will need to know this before buying. The auction house should be able to fill you in.

my only other advice is don't bid much over $4k for it.

Is it a 15yr old import, or SEVS? Either way I would contact DOTARS on 1800 815 272 and enquire about the situation. Have you checked to see it the vehicle still has the import approval with it? If so it will make your situation so much easier to get a definitive answer.

The car has been previously registered in NSW and is not listed as a Statutory write-off. Therefore, AFAIK, it can be re-registered as it's details are on the RTA database and it's ID can be verified via the VIN.

What did the R33 go for?

$7200,

It was an absolute bargain! There was some panel damage thats it. It had sat nav and tv in the cabin, as well as log books and CP plates.

Was an awsome car for the price as well as low km's and very well looked after inside the cabin.

      34 de+t conversion using s2 stagea automatic transmission, engine harness and ecu

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
