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.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
