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.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
