you cannot bring in a race car with an L2S. you need a minimum C3 (now called NC) - national circuit licence. to get an NC licence you must first hold a PC licence and compete in a certain number of events in 1 calendar year. check the cams site for the current requirements.

crikey.. well there u go eh.. i always thouht it was l2s.

i always thought it was l2s.

what is actually required for your car to enter these events tho? most dont need current rego.

to bringing race/rally car etc u need level 3 which is the national cams license..

the guy at dotars told me that if its specified as a drag car, there are no restriction to wht the car can have, and all u need is history that u race and provide the right license, in which case is ANDRA.. this way is heaps more simple... say its a drag car n my brother can show his history and license and then it gets approved and comes here!

im pretty sure he said u jus provide license type and history of motorsport, in this case which drifting is a L2NS... show ur histry etc, and u should be able to bring it in...

didnt go into too much detail... i jus gonna do the drag car way, lot simpler, and my brother n his mate have done that b4 so we kno what to do. he jus bought in a drag corvette 3500HP without a problem... so i think bringing in a 500hp whatever car for drift should be pretty simple.

thanks

Even for drift you need a NC (C3) or higher to get an import approval. Once it is here if you do not need rego anyone can buy it from the importer but CAMS expect the importer to be the driver....ie I personally would not be bringing in cars for other people to use in case I was refused when I wanted one next lol.

If you need rego, rally rego in NSW requires an L2S or higher.

Steve, my 91 GTR was $9,400 landed.

muahahah its a vspec now!

no just a stocker non vspec, about 120,000klm, was 450,000yen at auction. it was tired but that wasn't an issue since i had to redo everythign anyway

I haven't looked for a while at gtr auction prices but I assume they have gone back down from the insane prices when the 15 year old rule was in.

FOB price plus say 2k for shipping and 1k for brokers fee....its pretty cheap.

Thanks for that, i will be looking into it for myself in the next few months - ive decided to get serious about hillclimbs, but i wont wreck my white r32 in order to do it

Now it just comes down to the paperwork and finding someone with the right cams licence, i only have L2S

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.

      It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

      South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.
