Tangles, I was asked if i lived 40km's from the CBD by TransportSA, that being the case i've been told that I have to goto regency rather than a police station. Think i also read that on the TSA website.

Well, all I can say to that is that they are LIARS

they told me that too - I rang back and said Regency is outa my way, and I KNOW that I can go to Sturt Rd (not police station, but right next door, RTA testing facility). They said thats true, but only open tuesday or thrusday 9am to 3pm so "it wouldnt suit me".

I told em what I thought of that, and asked them how do THEY know what suits ME? Matey, they are liars. Im serious - DO NOT go to Regency. Go to Sturt rd facility (looks like a council yard right next door to the cop shop), they will check your vin / engine numbers etc. They wont look in your kick panel, but will look briefly thru your engine bay.

Good luck with it. My 2c.

(the above is based on you rego'ing a car that had previously been rego'd interstate)

Cheers for the tip mate.

Say you wouldn't happen to have their branch and contact details would ya?

http://www.transport.sa.gov.au/contact_us/index.asp wasn't any help.

But either way, i don't think their opening hours are when I'm available.

No contact details that I know of.

yeah - I had to take a few hrs off work to do it. But IMO it was worth it.

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
