Hi hows it going, i got a Nissan Skyline R33, i have recently gotten it from the hail auctions. The car is classified as a repairable write off but its only hail damaged however i am currently on my L plates and it will be roughly about 6 months till i get my P plates. However i am interested in registering the car and i understand i have to get it pre approved by a retailer. However i want to know is there any way you can get the car registered without a drivers license?

However if the case its not possible, then if i lets say let someone else get it registered which has a license for example a friend, does that mean i can still be the owner of the vehicle but the registration is just on there name?

Yours Truly,

okay then thank you, im currently a student here so i don't have any family around. However if i get it registered on a friends name, will it be possible for me to be still as the owner of the vehicle, but as well when i get my license what kind of process do i have to go thru to get the registration transferred to my self.

Yours Truly,

Forget about all the other bullshit people tell you, I work for the Dept of Transport Licensing Service so I know all of this.

YES you can have a vehicle registered in your name from the age of 16 regardless of whether you hold a driver's licence or not.

I'm assuming you already have a learner's permit? If so, that means you already have a driver's licence number (and my guess is it would start with the number 5 :)). This also means you already have a record with us, so when you get the car over the pits and registered it can all be in your name :P

    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
    • By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.
