The 33 I liked is in fact a 1996 (Compliance plate said '98, green plate pre-SEVS btw), should I steer away from it or not even though it isn't under finance or stolen or write-off register?

imo, if you like the car just get it every car will have small problems from the 90s mine needed new suspension and tyres as well as needing to repair the front lip but still loved the car when i saw it so i got it! :thumbsup:

tl;dr Shit can be fixed :D

Nah, that isn't what I meant, I were saying the car was complied as '98 model when the actual chassis is in fact a '96 model, not sure if I can live with it.

buy mine man.... 30k

Since you don't have the Professors on, no thanks.

Haven't had the chance to look at grey 33 in woop woop, may do that this weekend.

harden the fuck up princess. Was probably a typo in the CPA registry that sent out plates.

If the car has been registered, and has a history in one of the national registration systems, no one gives a shit about the plates. The only thing that's used for is the initial rego.

Grant come to shep on Saturday and tell the guy to meet you at DECA rolleyes.gif

Shep is closer for him.

Just got a message from the seller, he doesn't seem that keen but told him I'll be there...

Shan, is it pretty common with pre-SEVS cars?

Just want to be sure before I go stupid and buy it.

It's not common, but it's not surprising. a car I bought didn't even have a plate. which was fun, ran around for a month trying to get it from canberra and it turned out I didn't even need it to reg the car.

just make sure the VIN on the plate of the car matches the VIN on the manufacturer plate, and then run that VIN through FAST to make sure the specs of the car match up.

eg: 6U9000ECR33123456 = ECR33-123456 = RB25 R33 GTS25t

Thanks for that but, is error on import approval or mistake by Canberra put it on wrong year pretty common during pre-SEVS days?

The VIN on said 33 isn't 6U900xxxx it's 6T91 thingy hence my curiousity, what sparked it when I ran it thru Vicroads check and FAST (VR listed it as '98 whereas on FAST, it's 96).

6U900xxxx is new SEVS system, under CPA it was some weird shit.

Errors happen, check that the VIN numbers match up properly. No one gives a fuck about the year.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
