ask macnag. he got his car complied in brissy and sending it vis truck back to perth. ce carfull when chossing a compliance center.

Now do you have any aftermarkerts parts installed? Cos that would dictate on the pricing for compliacne as well.

Thanks for the rply, No after markets, car is bog stock....

From my experience recently i would recommend that you send it to Brissie...would not recommend using the place i did in Perth...if you want details send me a PM and ill explain everything!

Otherwise have a look back i think there is another thread called Compliance..i explained the simple stuff of what happened in there!

Honestly save your money go to Brissie and that way you wont pull your hair out!!!

You CAN NOT comply a NON Turbo vehicle

secondly there's no such thing as a non-turbo RS four, it'll be a 25X Four.

Well Actually it doesn't matter any more, as I cancelled the car in Japan this afternoon. No Cost Phew!!

You're all right, can't comply a non turbo. Bugger, really pissed off, but like they say if it sounds too good to be true it probably is!!! the Stag was a silver 99, with 81,000 km, a few bumper scratches (5 in all) a cigarette burn in the center console arm rest, everthing else perfect and my offer of A$2400 was accepted!!. Spent the day trying to organise things, THEN found out about the non-compliance. We obviously need a register for Boring cars as the non-turbo isn't powerful enough!! Seems really stupid. But it wouldn't be the first time a stupid law was made!!!

Back to the drawing board. I guess I'll have to find a Turbo after all, It's just that I want an S2 with FAT, and don't want to end up paying more than have to.

Maybe I'll have to look at Skylines as there is only one person that can comply a Stag in Perth, and they are a dealer too. I've had a look at their (overpriced) stock and I wasn't impressed.

I write more as I find out.

Every day I find out how little I know.... man, this is some learning curve!

I can confirm what darrin said, its under the power to weight requirement of SEVS.

On another note, explain how you have an RS Four nonturbo, as the non turbos are actually 25X Fours from what I know.

Dunno, that's waht the rear badge says, but like I said in another reply it don't matter now!

I'll see if the co. in Japan can find a Turbo for that sort of dosh!! (doubt it ) :)

There is no problems with getting the car even if you dont comply it in Perth I just bought mine and am getting it complied by Shogun/RCN Compliance in Brisbane and they are charging me $3000 for compliance and I am able to arrange shipping for around 500 to 800 bucks which leaves me ahead by $700 to $1000 better off than complying in Perth and they are going to sort any non standard parts for me too so its just too easy. Only got the car 2 weeks ago and have already had the import approval granted and shipping booked.

Use an agent like J-Spec and everything is very easy just sit back wait impatiently and then enjoy your car.

Like Glen says . It is cheaper ,and quicker toget a car sent to Brisvegas, get it complied and truck it to Perth.

I used Prestiege Motorsport in Perth to buy through, and used Iamshe in Southport for compliancing. Phil White is the Man. No hassles cost about $3400 including tyres and lend of stock bits to get it through.

yea i second Phil too. I heard of him from other people said that hes good and resonable price. No BS from him. It pays to call him to check it out.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
