Act Rego Passing

[MIVEC]

Goddamn this is gay.

Currently registered car in the ACT with engineered mods and I still have to go over the pits.

hey rumble why did you have to get an ID check? was it because it was a fresh import? And did you first try a local garage and then they told you to go to Dickson?

Cheers Mate.

I went to a garage first but since it had to go for the ID check at Dickson they said just get it done there-the ID check was interesting-waited for best part of an hour in a little room with lots of out of date mags .

Ok, I'm getting lots of conflicting reports from people all over the place.

Basically my car is a currently registered and engineered (reasonably modified) ACT vehicle, I merely wish to change the name of the owner to myself.

What do I need to do?

Dickson, or any inspection garage?

Go to an inspection station and ask them. They can tell you. They will ring the RTA on behalf of you to find out if they can pass you but wont give away details to the RTA if you dont want them to.

everyone's recommendations conflict each other. when i was getting the mr2 checked, dickson said i had to go over the pits, one rego inspection place said i had to also, another said i didn't. ended up being that she didn't need to go over the pits, and only had to go to a servo rego inspection place....she had an engineers report and QLD mod plate

pete, if u can, just take it to a trusting or well recommended rego inspection place, inspections cost 36 bucks or so from memory, test your luck?

^ That was the same for my skyline. The RTA change the rules so many times a year that the dudes cant keep up. The guy who i finally got to pass mine was 100% sure he couldnt touch imports as a letter came to him a few months prior saying they could no longer pass imports. I assured him he could do it as i had been told by a number of other inspection stations. He rang the RTA and sure enough they told him it was fine...

Take it somewhere and ask.

W00t!!

I passed easily. I hope the white 33 GTR that was in there with me passed too!!

haha yeah ive been in that little room.. they closed a curtain over my car then told me to go to that room when I was trying to pass my old car (CRX) which had no compliance plate! .. they did forensic checks on it then had to send it away to a forensic lab to be fully inspected..

I had to wait 1 week for the outcome (nerve racking wait cause they told me if it was rebirthed i would lose it cold) and then finally they said i could have it cause they had no solid proof that it was stolen..

any way back to my point, that room is gay ..
