so can that be changed at all, i mean if i took it into a complance place why could they not comply it. If it has no rust and is stock ect and meets all the rules, it should be able to be regestered.

Sorry i do not know all the in and outs of importing, only new to the scene hence the newbie questions.

If it comes into Australia as a race-only car, it will permanently forever always be that way, it can never be road-registered. It's just the rules.

Oh ok, sorry not being rude or anything, just not quite sure understanding why. How does the rules change in respects to what can be imported under race rules ect. Is it becaue of modifications or something. On that note, being a newbie, can somone point me to a good page where all that information and defenitions are explained.

thanks

Thanks for all the comments here guys but no one interested?

is there any way of putting it on the road??

y cant it be registered

Please read threads! I'm sick of answering the same question over and over again. No it cannot be registered!

jus to clear up, these cars CANNOT EVER be registered for road use. They are imported cheaply for this reason and 'blackmarked' their id/VIN numbers are taken down throughout ALL registeries in Australia and marked as a RALLY/RACE ONLY vehical. The only way to register them is illegal.

Hope that clears it up for some people. Good luck with sale, this is a bargin!

god damn, manual, RB25DET, seats, full brakes front and rear, theres a neat conversion for someone with an S13, then there's still a race shell, strip it completly, big V8 and compete in the super saloon races

So how does the car run?

Gearbox nice and tight and not notchy?

Engine not making any abnormal noises?

engine runs fine 6 months ago, battery is dead and fuel pump is dried up coz no fuel in it. Replace the two things then way you go...Gear box is excellent, also have quick shifter kit :D

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
