Hey folks, just wondering if anyone have had experiences buying a skyline or any other cars from interstate and was it a lot of trouble to have them registered to Victorian registration? Also, are there any problems driving an interstate car in Victoria? (ie. issues regarding rego, insurance etc).

Thanks!

you have about 3months ?(could be more or less? or so to trnasfer to vic plates.....all you need is a rwc and thats all from my knowledge. can always ring vicroads to be 100% sure

Hey mate I bought a GTR from Sydney and kept it registered with NSW plates. About 2-3 weeks later I handed in the NSW plates, and registered my car with Victorian plates. I needed a RWC, and proof of sale (contract signed by you and the seller), and you have to fill in a form with the all your details. Apparantly it was easier for them to do, because it was still NSW retgistered when I went to swap it over to VIC they had the details on the system, and it didn't require an inspection as long as I provided a RWC, well thats what the guy behind the counter told me.

I was worried about bring it over from NSW to VIC, thinking it might be a real pain to get a roadworthy if they pick on any of the mods that it had, and it might get checked over by VicRoads. In the end the RWC cost me $70 and there was no inspection needed so it all went smoothly. Good luck

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
