Hi

I'm trying to register my newly acquired 1990 R32 and just got few issues with QLD Transport

The car was imported privately by previous owner, but I will be the 1st owner to register.

Car got complied with the Mod/Blue Plate with code L01 Aust Design Rules Comp.

1st issue no year stamp on the car's plates (jap and mod/comliance plate)

2nd Need import paperwork

now what import paper work do I need to provide? I called the previous owner and he said he'll get the people who complied it to email me a copy.

Now is this copy acceptable or do I need the original papers?

*note I'll post this in the QLD section for reference

please advice

Thanks in advance

you will need the import approval,

the yellow modification certificate that accompianies the blue mod plate in the engine bay

what other documents do you already have? where are you located? I know that some QLD transport offices are much more relaxed when it comes to newly registered imports.

went to Macgregor Transport centre

I dont have any of the papers yet, I'll be getting the compliance cert today and import approval via email...

this is what Im worried about if they'll accept this copy

In NSW you also need a weighbridge ticket, and CTP insurance in hard copy.

The centre simply take a photocopy anyway, so I'm guessing the copy SHOULD suffice. I have always had the original though, so I can't be 100% sure.

I have never been to MacGregor. I know that Woodridge have a rep for being the easiest to pass.. and the people are quite familiar with imports... many other places have no idea what they're looking for.

In QLD you don't need a weighbridge ticket, but yes, you will need to apply for CTP from say suncorp or RACQ BEFORE you go to QLD transport.

Also you will need a current Safety Certificate...

If you have the safety cert and CTP and the registration application form FULLY filled out, you can drive the car to the inspection centre... but only directly there. You will need to rego the car the SAME day as the CTP is written... I know with suncorp, you can change the original once only, then you need to cancel that CTP form, and get another one. (You will get a refund for the cancelled one, but it just takes time.)

Do you have the safety cert/ organised CTP yet?

Would dotars re-send a copy of the import approval document? Still looking for one of the pages to get the car registered but in a worst case scenario situation, would they re-send the papers?

The vehicle is approved and everything.

Yeah they usually will if you confirm ownership with them. I've done it before, no hassles.

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
