I remember reading on here somewhere and i have done searches but can't find what i'm looking for. I have the regency defect and my rego has expired. As we know you can't register a defected car. However, if you have the defect signed off and a regency appointment you can drive untill that date, the standard procedure when the car has rego.

I thought I read, that if you go to the regency park office with the paperwork they can issue you with some type of rego so the car can be driven.

I have the defect paperwork and has been signed off in the past. I have made several calls and been told that this isn't the case. Can anyone help??

yes you can, but it is classed as a permit rego

once ur car is cleared u take the reciept saying u passed regency and the reciept saying u paid 180 or whatever u paid for ur rego to the desk and they make up a sticker for you no questions asked,

can be tricky if you not sure wat to do or u get sum1 that doesnt know wat there doin at the desk

i only did this like two months ago, so yes it can be done.....

so is your defect signed off and cleared or you going to regency? :P

why would you have an appointment to go to regency if its signed off and cleared already?

my rego run out while on defect and i had to buy stupid day passes each time i went to a workshop with it.

tip: get the paper work first and fill it out. dont go line up for 23423 hours talk then line up again .

need to be really precise with where you are taking the car also.

Yeah, not 100% sure on this but if they find out the trader plates don't actually belong to you or you aren't a part of the company you can get into serious trouble

Not ture customers use trader plates all the time for test drives, I would have said im taking it for a test drive and said the car yard i used.

ok then. say your double defected (didnt pass first time regency)

can you still go to the cop shop and have your stuff ticked off (strut braces. suspension etc)?

then get your car rego'd till your inspection ?

You need proof that you've fixed/repaired/replaced the items in question on the defect.

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
