Had pretty much the same problem with my daily, I had to apply for new registration via a form TransportSA gave me, then I had to get the car ID inspected at Regency even though it had SA plates and everything...

I should note that when I did this I didnt have to show them proof of purchase or anything, I had absolutely no paperwork worth anything there...

edit: I also registered a car from Victoria with no paperwork too, although I did a have a reciept for the car

Why would you hand over cash for a car with no rego papers/proof of ownership? How can you guarantee it was not stolen interstate and will come up as so when they check the VIN? Has it got a green compliance plate to prove it has even been complied?

Sounds very dodgy to me.

if the car has been prev. reg is SA, you can wait for the rego to expire, then apply to register a vehicle.

obviously when you fill the form out you will put your name on...

i did this with one of my first cars, long story short, ex family friend refused to sign it over

after i paid it off after he had a blue with my old man,

the car ran out of rego a week later, the day after it ran out, i applied for rego all over again, in my name.

easy done, its MR1 form i think

ill explain it a little better.

car is from NSW rego runs out in 2-3 months

asked previous owner who purchased car from nsw without putting in his name for the papers, and he said he couldnt find them.

and he doesnt have the previous owners details anymore (not saying he is lying or anything like that, just how it is)

so basically i have a R33 in someones name who i dont know. and wondering if possible to put into my name without any papers. eg transfer papers receipt or rego papers)

never got them, and now there missing
If you never got them how are they missing?

It's called a conundrum, lol.

Seriously, why do people hand over money without receiving papers or running VIN checks first.

As Chad has already stated, you'll find the correct answer to your question by ringing Transport SA.

Goodluck with it cause it sounds like you'll need it.

well another option is to wait it out until the previous owner receives the re-registration forms, then you can go to him and sign the forms, or whatever. I believe there is a form that is basically the same that you can pick up from TransportSA/ServiceSA. Just hope he doesnt report you to the police for theft, and he gets the cash and the car. Would be an easy scam tho, if you paid him cash, there is absolutely no evidence that you purchased the car.

Do you have the seller's details at all to fall on in case things go belly up?

I agree with everyone else, sounds very very dodgy and you should have been smarter than that.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Something to note, on an aftermarket BOV, it's quite possible to end up with the worst of both worlds, where on light throttle, there isn't enough force to open the BOV so you get small reversion and driveability issues, and with the venting to atmosphere, it dumps a lot of fuel on shifts. Realistically, dumping to atmosphere under power isn't a major driveability issues, compared to the issues of stalling from reversion. If you're getting up the throttle, then putting the clutch in, say on a shift up, but then don't release the clutch, yes, the engine can and will stall, but, just drive around it, and that's easy, let the clutch out in the next gear and the car rolling will keep it all running / going.who wants a hard hit of throttle and then to just let the motor idle anyway?   Main issue for driveability is blipping throttle and it wanting to stall, like when parking or trying to move in slow traffic.

      As in they quoted one price, you mentioned the exhaust, and they promptly added $200 on top? Interesting.

      Note that I'm not suggesting this is a great idea. Just saying that it is something that could be done to achieve a better outcome than the more shit ideas will provide.

      What's this Foreign Object?

      By luke gtr · Posted

      I'd try removing it, connecting hoses and see if that helps. Depending on specs, it could actually be restricting the flow(it also might be helping).

      Yes, that's a hybrid BOV. The adjustable spring load ones are about making teh pressure build up higher before venting, so you get a more agressive whoosh. That is not what I meant or what you want. By "restricting", I don't mean "keep it closed until the pressure is higher, then open it fully". I mean "open it as soon as it is required, but only have a small port area, so that the flow rate out of it is slowed down". The pressure will rise to be higher than a bigger ported BOV would provide, but it would do while it is venting. The idea is to slow down the rate at which the replacement eair is flowing past the AFM, to reduce the magnitude of the air flow signal peak, to reduce the amount of fuel that is added per revolution.
