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.

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
