temporary rego! It IS possible to rego a defected car - ive done it, and kye done it.

Basically - go the the rego place at regency, take the rego form and defect papers with clearance signed and the date of your regency appointment.

You will pay the normal rego fee and instead of the normal coloured rego sticker you get a temporary paper one that you stick to the window. It is valid UP UNTIL YOUR REGENCY DATE.

Once you pass, take the clearance form and the temp sticker and they will swap it for a normal rego sticker.

Dont let people say it can be done, it CAN.

Saves paying a towing fee, day pass etc.

How long's the waiting list?

My rego runs out in August, I was going to wait until I've fixed everything on my car and then make a booking, but that may be after my rego runs out.

if the waiting list is over a month, i should make a booking now and hope i've fixed everything by the date, so i can still drive it there..

the wait was for around 2 weeks.

I needed more time tho. Alot of stuffing around to do.

Didnt realise my rego was due to run out. stupid me.

have you fixed what you got defected for ? If so you can take it to the police station and get it checked off and still drive around. you cant do this till you have booked for regency tho.

+1 for what flick said

i done it before too. but you have to make sure that you speak to someone that knows what there doing

or just speak to the manager if you get someone saying no it cant be registered while defected.

yeah it works, if you cant make the regency date go to the cop shop and get your permit signed again and then go to the rego office and they can extend your temp rego.

As JDM032 said make sure you tell them what it is your after or get a manager, the ladies behind the desk at regency seem to have constant PMS anyways haha

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
