ive been to vic, nsw, and rego in qld never once got defected, been pulled over many times though. this was also on my p's as qld didnt have those rules but vic and nsw did at the time.

99% chance youll be fine and they wont bother, theres more cars they can get in sydney for alot less stuffing around.

I dont know if the police officer told you, you need to change your licence and plates after 3 months of living in NSW.. Its on the RTA website .. However I would not bother.

Yeah he told me that, then i explained my circumstances and by law i'm exempt from that, so my qld license has 5 years left on it, and i can pay rego over the internet. (no roadworthy needed unless changing owner)

That's cool!

I didn't know that there were grounds for an exemption!

Is there a list explaining what these grounds are?

Congrats!

I also find this hard to believe... but like pod filters, I'm going to assume that no one ACTUALLY knows the answer

Also, I'm assuming further that you are keeping your listed address as the on in Qld? meaning that 'technically' you don't live here, hence the exception. :) amirite? :)

Ive heard mention of a law which mentions devices such as coolers which are outside plastic or meshed area of the car.. E.G Rx3 turbo with a huge cooler mounted infront of the metal with only a bumper bar (an actual single bar) covering the cooler.

This is a cheese grate for peds and a blender if in motion. u get the idea .. blood n guts etc...

I believe what he wanted to say was its protected from pedestrians.

I call shenanigans.

There is no excemtion for people moving to NSW to retain their interstate licence. The only excemptions are people who are not permanent residents of Australia, Military personnel etc. You are here for more than 3 months and you need a NSW licence as well as NSW registration.

See ROAD TRANSPORT (DRIVER LICENSING) REGULATION 2008 - REG 99

FMIC advice is also rubbish. You can have a FMIC if it complies to standards such as an IM240 emissions test and the structural integrity of the vehicle is not altered (eg engineeers report) Pod or any exposedd filters are also subject to emission testing.

You would apply for an excemption in NSW and be excempted as you owned the car interstate before the commencement of their HP vehicle scheme.

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      gauge needle removal

      By Jarsky · Posted

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.

      R34 Speedo not working after manual swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
