Moving Upto Bris

[sinistaGTR]

well end of this year im moving upto bris from adelaide.

Need a bit of help. Just wondering exactly whats involved with changing over a car from interstate.

I have a 99wrx, just a exhaust, pod and boost controller.

And my 33gtst Pic of engine bay is in my avatar,

Main things that are obvious are:

Highmount gt3040

q45 afm

avcr (can only see the solenoid in the engine bay)

power fc (cant be seen but its there)

bov

kn pod

fmic

38mm external gate with screamer (can see it from underneath the car)

lowered

I have full rebuild with tonnes more goodies but these are the obvious ones

I realise im goin to have to plumb the screamer back in, what else am i goin to need to change, the car is very quiet at idle and when off boost so no probs there.

just wondering what exaclty the process is and what will i need to change to get the car rego changed to qld

i think you might have to get a road worthy when rego is transfered not sure, but welcome to Brisbane when you come.

seen u around in forced induction mate..

welcome.. u only need a QLD RWC and fill out the paper work here.. QLD transport is fairly good

yeh thanks, i actually bought my car up there 3 1/2 years ago from brisbane street machines. Also where is the best place to go up there for skyline tunes. Im putting out 260rwkw atm but will be closer to 300rwkw very shortly so i dont want anyone dodgy.

yeah like they said u need a RWC, registration application and ur rego notice ( save u from stamp duty) just those 3 paperwork and got my QLD plates.....I did mine last week WA to QLD took 10mins to process and thats it. just have to pay rego.

cool who does your rwc and what do they look for is it just like,leaks, tyres, brakes do they look at mods. The car is clean as in that respect just all the crap hanging off the engine im worried about.

And do you need an eye level brake light, i have a stealth lip but no eyelevel brake light in it.

Im pretty sure they dont look at mods just mainly safety issues like you have mentioned.

For tuning i take mine to Stafford tune or there is PITS on the Gold coast who has a very good name but is pricey and Godzilla motorsports.

Is he mobile? I used one that is mobile, supposed to be a bit soft and he was thorough enough, all the important stuff anyway.

nah, he's down redbank way. has a lil garage off the side of a caltex servo down there

er, they won't give you a rwc unless u have an engineer certificate for the highmount.. and maybe the front mount. You really need to contact a RWC guy, but I have a feeling they're going to say "you'll need an engineers certificate first".

[sinistaGTR]

WTF^^^^^ can anyone confirm this has anyone changed a car over from interstate with similar mods to mine

Never heard of of that one i have a high mount and FMIC and i got a RWC with no engineers certificate. Maybe it depends on who you go to.

[sinistaGTR]

excellent....i like that as long as can get the rego changed i dont care lol

[markimak]

youll be right dan.. explain u just wanna change from interstate and just slip him a $50 and he will say "high mount what high mount"

<===i love that smily

Depends what mechanic you go to. I doubt most of them would even know if the turbo is standard or not. I honestly don't think you will have trouble getting your car registered here. As mentioned above, all you need to get is a $57 certificate saying your car is roadworthy. For this they mainly check for tyres, brakes, lights and hazards, oil leaks and other minor things. Turbo, computer etc won't even get looked at. The guy that gave me my road worthy thought that some r33 gtst's came with standard front mount intercoolers. And he is the owner of a decent tuning shop in brisbane with some very nice cars in it. All the best, and if you do run into trouble, I know a few people that can give you a roadworthy, providing of course that your car is in decent nick, not a pig.
