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

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
