Hey guys hope this is the right section

I'm considering purchasing a skyline from Queensland, the car in question is engineered except for the ECU and boost controller.

What am I in for and what is required to get the car over the border? Any help would be great as I'm pretty clueless with these things.

Cheers Steve.

We just did it.

Step 1:

Get the rego papers

Step 2:

Get a note from the owner stating their name & address where the car is registered at, sold to one zilch who lives at 102 skyline way, sydney for $xxx amount rego number 589 X97 QLD vin/chassis number. sold on date 19/02/2008 and get them to sign it.

Step 3

bring the car back to NSW

Step 4

Go get a blue slip

Step 5

Go to the RTA give them your

A) Blue slip

B) Change of registration form (you must fill this out at the rta)

C) The note that the old owner has given you

D) Just have the old rego papers on hand

Step 6

Give them lots of monies and you have a NSW registered car. (woo hoo!)

Thanks heaps for that Corinne :/

I was just unsure of the procedure and yeah the car has a ton of mods but I suppose if they are all engineered it won't matter

Oh and how much did it cost you?

It depends..

It will cost you the

* Blue slip

* Green slip I forgot to mention you need one of these

* Transfer of rego fee which is certain percent of the car it all varies

* and of course the full 12 months rego.

Cost some big bucks because you have to put 12 new rego on it.

But then you won't have to worry about it running out.

The QLD engineering stuff doesn't mean squat to NSW they don't reconise it.

Hey Corinne,

What car did you bring over?

I just did this with my V35 and went as above, except before I handed over the monies I had to take the car through a random "ID Check".

If the car has rego it's no big deal as you can still drive it while waiting for the ID check but not sure if they check other things like mods while doing the "ID Check" mine was pretty standard, with only exhaust and Nismo suspension.

As for driving down, definately do it. I bought my car from Noosa and had a truck waiting in Brisbane. An hour into the drive from Noosa, I cancelled the truck called the Mrs and said, see you tomorrow.

I also got a nice souvenier from the Queensland police about a week ago (I bought it in December), a pic of my car passing a nice Torana photographed by our friendly speed cameras. :-) And a nice close up as well. I think you can see my smile in the pic. I'm getting it framed as i type.

That random ID check IS BADDD make sure the car is completely stock when it goes for it.

exactly - I thought I would be rejected but in the end i passed first go with my V35 even though I had the exhaust and suspension.

I got through nice and easy when I imported my first V35, but I think it could be cause the V35's are newer NON turbo they may be a little more leanient on them

Hmm. Well when we went to get a blue slip for the GTR the place on parra road didn't want to do it because it wasn't standard and if we had to have a ID check done they would have fined the dealership doing the blue slip.. We just said we had all the spare parts and home (which we did) and if we were called to book it in we would change it back the day before. Had the blueslip done and lucky the RTA didn't check it.

I doubt they would make me do it for the bike. I still have the thing on QLD rego until I get a bit of money to re-rego it.

thats the same with me...

your MEANT to transfer it right away, but my car still had like 6 months rego on it, and the dealer slapped in my name already so when i had the funds (now) ill do it... (runs out on 28th.. lol)

but you can get in trouble for not doing it asap.. and get taken to court (sif thats going to happen)

It's shit hey Haysey! It's a waste of money not to let the bloody rego run out. Because unlike NSW if you buy a car from another state that money goes back to the old owner. Load of crap I tell you.

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
