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.

I'm definatley getting a series 2.

with all the options :ph34r: leather, dual sun roofs etc etc etc.

been looking today but no luck yet :pirate: can only find one with leather but unsure if its turbo model. and its black, i dont think i could own another black car

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).

just buy mine, grade 4, manual, already in the country, 12 months rego, 200Kw atw .........etc etc etc

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.

*free plug just to feel the luuuuuurve*

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??

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
