Seriously this thread is going from bad to worse.

Let me make this clear - TOMMYKAIRAS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE UNDER SEVS. If they were they would have to be listed on the SEVS register.

Those workshops bringing them in are technically breaking the law and risk losing their accreditation with DoTaRS if they are caught, and therefore not being able to comply anything. Yes I know lots of places are bringing in modded cars but the fact remains that it's illegal - I would be very nervous about people posting stuff on here listing my company's name if I was a RAW.

Oh and they are not nervouse about be listing their name, they approve of it for 2 reasons, One is it is good publicity and 2 is they are doing nothing wrong. But you seem to Know all so i am sorry.... :(

No see let me explain, if they are brought in as an R34 GT-t then they must be returned to stock for compliance. Part that are aftermarket are meant to be destroyed.

As it stands, it is common knowledge that there are workshops working their way around this by removing parts before compliance and putting them back on afterwards. This is a good thing for us importers, but if people get on here advertising this fact, then expect DoTaRS to shut it all down and find ways of making us all suffer.

In other words, keep you mouth closed or you'll ruin it for everyone!!

Thanks for speaking on behalf of all of the RAWS workshops, but i can promise you that by us Importing any modified Car, and putting it back to standard is totally leagal and within the guidelines of RAWS. It is actually stated that all modified coponents must be removed.

Now as far as what the owner of the car does with his Aftermarket Parts that have been removed (They do not have to be destroyed as some wrokshops will have you beleive or actually beleive themselves, as it conflicts with civil law of the coponent not actually owned by the RAW for them to destroy, we have been to court over this topic) is entirely out of the RAW control.

So thanks for the concern but please do not put anyone down or say they are breaking laws ect... until you know the facts, and even then it is not a good idea to put people down

:D

Joe the info I had was coming from other workshops themselves, so perhaps they also need to read up a bit more on the matter.

But hey, if what's happening is within the rules, then it's all good - great in fact (I'm planning my next car already!!). I wasn't actually putting anyone down - quite the reverse, I was concerned that you guys would get in trouble if people got on here advertising what was going on.

Good to know though - I won't feel so sneaky anymore! :D

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
