Potential problem....

I've got some custom plates ready to be picked up that I ordered a couple of weeks ago, and it says in the letter to bring in the existing plates & current rego papers. Now I can't find my last registration papers... I thought it was still in my glove box where I usually keep it after paying it, but I can't find it in my car or anywhere else I would normally keep something like that.

I got home literally 5mins too late to call the DPI & ask them if it's going to be a problem, but has anyone ever had any problems when they needed their papers & didn't have them? (like selling a car for example)

I'd think that it would be easy for them to check up on their system when I go in to the licensing centre to see that the car is registered, & maybe with id that it's registered to me....but I'm just trying to find out now because if it's no problem because with work tomorrow I might not even have a chance to call them to find out!

Can anyone help? Searching has given me nothing :P

They asked me for my papers also in that letter thingo saying they have arrived, I just drove down to the D.P.I unscrewed my original plates went to the counter with the letter and said i need my new custom plates. :)

Then they changed them over No hassles they never asked me for The rego papers they just said "Ring your Insurance Company and tell them youve changed your plates" Otherwise i had no problems.

So you should be Fine :)

dude quite sure they can easily bring up ur rego details on their system...they get probs like that daily...wouldnt stress..

That's what I was thinking but I'd hate to be waiting there tomorrow & get told I can't have them over a little thing like a piece of paper :)

nathan they said i had to take the papers but when i get there they didn't even look at them. Dont know if it was just me or whether or not i just got the lazy person at the centre :)

Yeah just a technicality but hopefully I get someone similar...laziness ftw!!!11!

Sweet as, thanks for the replies!

yeah if you have an old set lying around you can use those - doesn't have to be current license papers. Otherwise they will print off a duplicate but they will slug you $19 for the priviledge.

Becareful with licensing centres as it's a bit of pot luck. One day you'll get someone more than happy to slightly bend the rules but most times you'll get a stickler for the rules and no matter how small and ridiculous it maybe they will go 'computer says no'

Back in the day i used to do licensing for a dealership so spent many an hour in the licensing centre.

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
