Some of the (older) skyline guys have got together and have asked SAU NSW to look into being able to issue Historic Rego.

The rules are basically:

Car 30 years or older

Unmodified (or only "period" options and accessories)

Owner must be SAU NSW member

Club safety officer has confirmed it is roadworthy (annual check)

Can be driven to: Club events, events with other clubs, attending community events, driving to mechanic

Must be noted in the club register before it is driven

I'm not clear on the annual rego fee, but the notes say "Historic vehicles registered under this scheme are exempt from the payment of stamp duly, motor vehicle tax and national charges." If rally rego is a guide it is under $100pa including insurance

We need 5 people seriously interested to make this happen......please post up if you have something that fits the criteria and you are genuinely interested.

*edit* for race style cars under 30 yo there is another scheme called rally rego. I am chasing up the current rules with CAMS and will post up in the next few days

period mods would be say...

If an LH Torana had a drop tank, you can put a drop tank on your LH if it didnt have one.

dragway wheels/12 slotter wheels would be classed as a period mod.

If you had a 302 powered XW/XY from factory, you would not be able to put a 351 in there and put it on club rego. (some people do though, cheeky buggers...)

best thing about the 302 and 351 is. all u gotta do is pull out the engine and change the crank, rods and pistons to 351 items and put your 302 block back in..... same block. engine numbers will match and all.... just a 351.

We did this to my old mans XC ute. after a while he woke up sold that and brought a XA GT haha, not muc'n round....

As long as its an originakl "k" code motor, its all good :D

With Historic rego too guys, its DIRT cheap for comprehensive insurance with a specialty insurer, if I ever had a classic, it would go onto this rego.

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
