On the page I linked it's the 'SEARCH FOR A RAW' option you can use to find out who can comply a car, straight off DOTARS.

Your link (RAWS Australia) is a non-govt source, so may not be up to date.

oh sweet. Thanks!!!

i was looking at this website

http://www.raws.com.au/SEVSRulingC.asp?RulingID=031 might not be the right one :D

I think you will find that they cannot do Series I and II - only later models!. A 'phone call will confirm.

It is likely to be a high spec turbo model, as there are limited numbers of each type of vehicle allowed to be imported under the SEVS scheme, and a base model with few features is unlikely to be worthwhile to bring in, (i.e. not enough profit to be worthwhile), or difficult for the RAW to convince DOTARS that it classifies as a SEV (Specialist or Enthusiast Vehicle).

If you want to know what constitutes a SEV here is a link to the relevant section of the DOTARS website http://www.dotars.gov.au/roads/motor/sevs/index.aspx

Once DOTARS has added a vehicle to the register, there is no restrictions on what and what can not be brought in so long as complies to these requirements. For the C34 Stagea, so long as it is either an RB25DET or RB26DETT engined variant, it will be allowed (subsequent to meeting SEVS accident, etc criteria).

that was my understanding! anything with non turbo etc etc isnt allowed

Model

STAGEA 4WD RS FOUR V this is what i have found. ones like this i am unsure if its the turbo model tho. as some also sat tb or turbo or 25t in the model description.. there seems to be many variants

i have come across a few decent ones tho 3.5 grade is on the border tho i guess

maybe if you are gonna keep it stock for the whole time you are driving it, but if you are gonna mod it in any way, or start lusting after a manual (like almost all of us do) then you will save a bucketload by buying Andy's.

I know exactly what you mean! i cant afford to modify another car!

i am sick of using a clutch and having one leg bigger than the other, i am sick of shifting gears, and i think i need a tow car without going back to an old 4wd again..

and i want all the electronics and options of what the stagea is going to give me :thumbsup: leather, dual roofs, automatic!! oh how i dream of an automatic! comfort! something the gtr definatley never will have! and a back seat!!!!! haha the first thing any girl says when they jump into the gtr is wheres the back seat!! and i think i want to be able to park my car anywhere and not worry :(

now do you think i can get all that for under 500000Y??

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground

      Coolant leak?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.

      Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
