Who here owns a car imported under the 15 Y/O rule? What kind of compliance plate do you have or do you even have one?

I spend about 800 fixing my car so it would go through I.D check without a hassle should they put it on the hoist and then the bloke says the car isnt complied and need an application for registration without a plate via a full roadworthy inspection.

I've had a look and the car has new seatbelts, side intrusion bars, but no tune specifications under bonnet, tyre placard or 98octane sticker on fuel flap.

Has anyone else come accross this problem?

You've done it right, you just took it to the wrong spot. All cars imported under the 15 year rule have to go through a pit inspection before they're registered in SA for the first time. You took it to the place that does ID checks.

My tip is to go down to Regency (the ServiceSA centre) and find out what work you actually need to do before taking the car in for the inspection. If your restraints aren't done, then you'll definitely be sent away and asked to come back for another inspection when all the work required is done.

Hey Christian do you know what the go would be with child restraints if you have the car redgistered as a two seater? Surley if you don't have any back seats and say a half cage then you wouldn't be required to have child restraints as they could never be used?

My response is that the mounting positions for restraint hooks are also good mounting spots for harnesses :whistling:

In all seriousness, I haven't dealt with that scenario, so I can't give you an answer on it. Common sense would suggest you don't have to bother.

Well I went down there today and gave them my application for exempt of compliance plate. I also had to surrender my I.D check sheet. The roadworthy personel told me a form will be sent to my home address and it would have criteria required for me to pass the inspection and once all is done a road worthy inspection would be carried out.

Does anyone have the tune specifications chart that is stuck under the bonnet? i need one as my car does not have one.

Evil34 if you have them that would be awesome.

If you took it for an ID check and they told you it needs a road worthy you should receive a statement of requirements in the mail listing what the car needs to have to pass. I am going through this process myself at the moment as I brought a car over from WA which is complied but has no sticker.

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
