Done a search, didnt really find exactly what i was looking for.

Im In NSW and buying a car from vic, that has been complianced and will come with import paperwork and compliancing paperwork, Im just wondering what im going to need to rego it in nsw,

Blue and Green Slip is a given, but am i going to run into anymore hurdles along the way? Can my blue slip just be from any Unregistered Vehicle Inspection Station?

I didn't have a problem, I took the compliance paperwork to the blue slip place,

and they did a blue slip. They commented on some stuff that didn't look stock but said

it wasn't their business. Get a weigh bridge weight ticket before you go as well, otherwise

they'll charge to have that done. You can drive the car with no plates, just tell the cops

to call the blue slip business to verify that is where you're going.

The CTP was a bit more of a pain because the plate was a "TBA". I got a better quote from

allianz but commonwealth bank staff have to process it if you don't want to wait for ages

to get something in the mail, and they seem a little lost .. for a CTP you just need the

compliance paperwork so you can give them the vin number.

Then you take the CTP, and the compliance stuff, and the blue slip and the green slip,

and a RECEIPT that shows the VIN number and your name and address and the name and

address of the business that sold you the car, and the amount you paid, and you take all

this to the RTA and if one bit of the paperwork is not right you have to go away again and

fix it, it is likely the RTA staff person hasn't done "one of these" before so they drag in a

manager. etc. They look for an excuse to bounce you back out. Eg: my receipt was partly

in Japanese and that was no good.

I've heard they may ask for the car to get an inspection at the RTA place that does this,

but they didn't with me, they just handed over the plates and the temporary paperwork

for the windscreen until the proper one comes in the mail.

Sweet, thanks mate, yea my plan was basically to go there with more info than needed, so sounds like a should be sweet, getting a bluey is no problem, and ill ring around about ctp and see who'll do it with the least hassels.

if anyone else has anything to add please do! Still got 3 weeks to sort it all out, and driving with no plates isnt an issue, as ill be driving it home on an unreg. permit and then only to the blueslip inspection station then to the rta.

Cheers

my QLD unreg permit had to list *exactly* where I would drive and on what days (if the permit

was longer than 24 hours). And if you get stopped by the cops, you need to be either in one of the

spots written on the permit, or between them, and preferably on the day the permit says you can be there.

On the other hand I passed maybe four cops in one way or another and none chased me down, only

when I stopped @ byron did the locals ask me what was going on with the no plates thing.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
