So, january comes around and another influx of soldiers are on their way (including me) and some of us bring modded cars up.

How does the roadworthy test go in the NT? they sound fairly easy going from what I hear? Namely things like a full padded roll cage, possibly loud exhaust, coilovers and rear seats removed. Will any of these cause problems when trying to get a roadworthy? or is it just easier to keep it registered in VIC?

Thanks.

dude in all honesty if your only up in the nt for a bit just keep it vic..but if your here for any longer than about 6 months get it changed over but just be aware if you get a mvr guy thats had a bad day he might pick your ride...but if its neat and tidy and everything works...eg. seat belts lights horn windscreen wipers..you will have no probs:D

Hey mitch

When i got posted up here they picked my R33 to bits. Ride height too low (coil overs fitted), headlights aiming too low, window tint too dark!! and few other things. Saying this i know i was in the wrong, but not as laid back as you may think.

Cheers Luke

I'll be getting my new car in a few weeks (34 GTR) but I'm gonna take it back down to katherine and get it registered there. Its completely bog stock but you can never be too sure. you'll need to get a green slip then take it to the pits. but in katherine the pits is over at the weighbridge. They'll ask for you to get a rego inspection first then they just check your enginge number and vin. Voila! Darwin do the full shebang. stuff that.

just head into the Darwin RAAF base dude and old mate at the sevo does inspections, hes pretty laid back so you should have any problems with him. i took mine over the mvr and got drilled and old mate at the servo said i was clown for not taking it to him, but hey i didn't know.

    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.

    • I think he was only proposing to use the wire, not the sender. Simply because it runs from the right place to the right place. Personally, I wouldn't hack up the factory wiring like that. I'd just lay in the Defi loom.
