just wondering what documentation i need to register my r32 in about a months time after i get a 1jz put in. i bought the car as a rolling shell (no engine, no diff, had been out of rego for a while).

this is what i think i need:

-rwc

-completed rego form

-hand written receipt from the guy i bought it off (has vin number on it)

engine will be mod plated etc. is there anything else that i may need in this situation?

cheers

yeah thats about it just need your engineers slip (aswell as the above) for the motor and if you have changed it from auto to manual that will also need to be mod plated.

Aaron, i think you'll find that when Mike is referring to a "Blue Plate", it is the same thing your talking about, a mod plate. most people will call them blue plates because they are just that, a blue coloured modification approved plate. it looks like you've got everything sorted, only thing i can think of is maybe look into CTP insurance. i don't know if its all done at the transport department or if you have to get CTP first, then register the car.

yeah sorry, josh is right the mod plate is what i call the blue plate and yeah u need to go get the ctp sorted before going to DOT's so u don't need a day pass to take the car from the mechanics to the DOT's center + that way u can pick who u want ctp to be with

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
