Hey mate,

Just to help you out, you could unregister it and then send it down to Melbourne but be warned, if the guy then goes to the Vic Roads and the people there don't know really what they are doing they might ask him for the import approval and the Consumer Information Notice (CIN).

The only way you'll keep the plates though is if you de-register the car in NSW, and then ship it down and the guy down in Melbourne can get a permit to drive it to the Vic Roads office.

Hey guys,

If I sell my car to Melbourne from Sydney, what needs to be done?

I have current NSW plates which I want to keep, so do I just go to the RTA and get my car un registered?

Does the buyer from Melbourne then get a day pass to drive to melbourne unregistered?

Once he is in Melbourne, what does he need to do to get the car registered?

Thanks for any help.

what on earth is a CIN?

he's got an R34 GTR, which means its complied under RAWS, which is a federally recognised compliancy scheme, unlike the state based one in place for shitty old 15 year bangers.

you shouldn't have any problems registering the car in VIC if it has a compliance sticker and VIN number on the chassis. RWC has to be VIC issued, not from NSW so there's no point.

you'll need a day permit in both NSW and VIC to drive the car down as one will not cover you in both states.

You can simply ...

i) put your plates into storage and get replacement ones (to keep the car registered)

ii) swap plates with a family member @ $22/swap ie. $44 to RTA and take with you the 2X Certificates of Rigistr'n

Price has probably gone up per swap methinks (since I did it).

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
