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.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
