Hey ppl,

I am headin over to NSW on wed to pick up my new car (providing its all good) which is a r31 GTS 2.

Anyway my question is do i need to change it in my name over there, or does both him and me have to sign the rear of the rego papers, then it jsut changes over when i take it over the pits down here??

Easiest way is to draw up a letter of sale, with both your full names on it, and witnesses preferred, stating date, time, price etc at time of changeover. That way there is written proof if speeding tickets happen on the way back down, or earlier that morning (to cover both of you!), plus it also acts as a recipt for Service Tas when you go to register it down here. Where in Tassie are you? As long as the car is in good nick, just take it to a servo who does inspections, pay your $50, then take the paperwork to Service Tas, pay your money and get your plates.

Also, get insurance for the car now. Tell them when you are picking it up, and as much info as you have on the car. They will cover you and give you a couple of weeks to make the first payment. Well, Shannon's do!

I've brought two cars from the mainland, both this way, and apart from dickhead sellers, never had a problem with the process I've just described.

Hope it helps.

Cheers, Greg.

Where in Hobart are you??

Look in the Tassie section of BoostCruising. There was a thread about this about 3 weeks ago with lots of suggestions. I know it's Boost but there is some good info on there.....sometimes!

Cheers, Greg.

U dont need to put the car over the pits down here as long as it is regoed up there and i think maybe needs that rwc thing too.

There is like an $8 change over fee.

No offence but you're on drugs!

Have you registered a car from the mainland down here? I have twice so unless the rules have changed somewhat in the last 2 months....

Meh, I don't do the whole MSN thing. Have better ways to waste my time!

If you think you can do it for $8, and can get away with it legally, you deserve a Knighthood!

I think you have miss read what he wrote Greg???

The way i read it he is saying you dont need a to take your car to have a full transport inspection just the RWC which is what our AIS is and can be done at any certified station like already mentioned.

The $8 change over fee i assume is part of what you pay Service Tas along with stamp duty and rego fees etc but i have never heard of that either :/

All in all he has explained the exact samething that you and i have just worded differently :)

It should cost about $50 to get your lights checked and general road worthiness. Then stamp duty on the valve of the car, then rego. I can never remember paying a $8 fee for anything.

I'd just like to see the paperwork saying the rego can be transferred over for $8, which is what was implied first off. If it's true, I've been ripped off twice by Service Tas!

Cheers, Greg.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
