Hey guyz n galz,

Went to register my car the other day cause the rego had run out and i hadnt recieved the next slip like usual so i rang them up and they say my file is frozen because regency want to look at it?

My cars not defected, havnt been pulled over or spoken to any police and ive registered it before and the old owner had rego too! I thought in order to register your import in SA you need a compliance plate and pass a road worthy inspection which it has. This is really weird so i was wondering if anyone had any thoughts or comments?

this isn't much help as the said it could be any number of things!

some of their possible suggestions were

-wrong payment

-cheque bounced

-defect issue

did you buy your car here in SA with registration or did you import it your self or buy it interstate?

it didn't help that i couldn't help them with any info about your car as they asked me your no plate and full name.

I bought it in SA already complied and registered and i havent been issued a defect!

I rang them again and it seems that the standards division at transport SA issued the

inspection beacuse they reckon it hasnt been inspected and they want me to pay $80

to get the car inspected when it shouldnt even need to be! I aint paying shit until they

give me some more info because it looks like theyve screwed up :P

$80? what needs to be inspected as most of the inspections are free i'll ask again tomorrow now that you know why it has been frozen and see what they say about the inspection.

Id think of putting your original bonnet back on and making sure that the car is not defectable, coz they are a holes and they WILL give you a hard time.

I'm not sure about the steering wheel size.

from what i hear Dan has sorted it out and it now just needs an identity inspection and not a full roadworthy (is this right Dan?) it was a mix up apparently with rego.

From what i found out at the reigstra office when you get a Import from interstate and have it go through an identity inspection they some times select you for a roadworthy inspection, you won't need to if you were the registred owner interstate.

sorry...

yeah but its only on imports you usually get informed if you need to get a roadworthy when you get the identity inspection done. Hope this is clearer. It sounds like there was a stuff up with Dan and he wasn't notified.

My mate down there said it's all about making extra money

      MLR's Bogan cruise ship

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      I've driven that one and it's a great deal and drives nice. The owner definitely treats it right on track. You would have gotten it for what you paid for this one too.   Keen to see what you do to this one.

      Front Tyres on R34 GTR, fitment, etc, *question*

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I have a question with regards to R34 GTR guards. All the info here is quite old. Useful, but old. At what point does the bumper itself become a clearance issue with wide wheels on a R34 GTR, specifically the part I've drawn in red here: All of the info that people post about implies that 285 is as far as you'd go before scrubbing becomes an issue, but they speak of hitting the inner plastic liners, not the bumper itself. Just how wide could you go if you took the liners out? Has anyone done it? I have been messing with my own car and spacers and heavily cursed my lack of planning, but I might not feel so bad if there's actually no gains to be had by going a GTR guard and front bar combination for $5k+ of money I do not have after spending about that much already on my solution which now has problems. (Woo) At least I now know why GTR guards and bumpers flare out like this over their GTT lesser cousins. I feel that in 2024, someone has gone further and attempted to run 315's or somesuch on the front of a R34 GTR. If you have, please post. If you're tried and failed for some other reason definitely post so I feel better about my mistakes

      URAS Type R R34 GT GTT Widebody Front Guards

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Genuine URAS Type R front guards in FRP. These will fit a GTT. They will only fit a GTT. If you have a GT or GTT and want wider fenders with a Z tune look up top, this is what you want. You use this with a regular GTT fitment bar. Not a GTR bar. They fit GTT guard liners and plastics, not GTR items. So if you're reading this thinking "Ah! I have a GTT or GT and want wider front guards that bolt directly on, but do not want the hassle of changing my bonnet and bumper and plastics and undertrays or anything else, this is what you want. The fitment is annoyingly perfect. I really would rather someone pick these up in person and not ship them. SE Melb.
