Hi guys, I recently sold my R32 GTR in Perth to a bloke in NSW. He says he can't get it registered because it doesn't have a compliance plate. Now it has been registered in Perth since 2005 and there is no compliance plate on the car as far as I can see (just jap one). I checked this with mates R32's and none of them in WA have compliance plates. Is this because of the Aus Del. R32 GTRs? I know all my other skylines (R33 GTS, R33 GTR) had compliance plates.

Any info would be great guys cause ATM its messy cause to keep it on the road, its registered as a WA car...

PS, I MISS MY FKN GTR :D 19psi = 430rwhp =/

Import rules are national not state based, and I'm pretty sure WA has not seceeded yet.

If it does not have a compliance plate it came in under:

1. personal import

2. 15yo import (before it was shut down)

3. race rally import.

if you do not know which scheme it came under, DOTARS who approve all imports will. Also WA's car rego department must know as well. 1 and 2 are eligible for full rego, 3 is not.

Well it doesn't have a personal import plate (cause my M3 does, UK import).

I've never seen a "personal import plate" either, is that an official compliance plate in the engine bay?

my car doesn't have a compliance plate it just needed a blue slip due to it being a 89 model

That's the deal.....almost certainly the people who inspected it are not familiar with the rules. He needs to try elsewhere, maybe by phone first (I have a 15yo import with no compliance plate etc). or maybe start with nsw rta and get some paperwork he can show the blus slip guys

if it was imported AS a 15 year old import which is more than likely it will need an nsw engineers report and blue slip to regoed in nsw.

personal inport have a yellow complience plate similar to the green/ purple ones of today. Greg

Aaahh sorry to bump again, but he said the bluslip guys want it engineered ($1500 minimum apparently?) and he'd have to revert to stock - exhaust, turbos etc.

Best way now?

    • Sane enough. Remove the roof liner, because the acid will go everywhere.
    • Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help and experienced opinions.  I have spent a lot of my life working on boats so I'm pretty good with fibreglass. I'll take everybody's advice in here;  I'll cut a little more of the 2nd layer away as it's a bit crunchy rust and also it's sitting high now. Then I'll wire brush it all a bit to get off anything loose, then I'll soak the bejesus out of it all in rust converter. I'll make sure to get a little hose piece and feed it into all the holes and gaps between the roof layers. Then I'll fibreglass up the holes.  Then I'll get a pallet of filler and mix it with 3 buckets of hardener and hope that is enough to build up the roof corner.  Does that sound sane? Is one type of filler better than others for this?
    • My goals for it atm are to get it registered, respray and some mild power gains eventually... I picked up the car from an elderly gentleman near the border of NSW and VIC, its honestly a bit rough and looks like its been driven on a farm (because there was so much dirt underneath). Last week I dropped the subframe and emptied the old fuel out + added a new fuel pump (think the old one went bad from old fuel). Now I'm onto fixing a coolant leak at the rear of the engine + adding a new radiator as the old one is corroded. After that i have a new bumper, coils (as the old were leaking) and lots more
    • Welcome buddy! Plenty on here and YouTube. What are your plans for it? Good luck with the Rwc and Rego bud!
    • Love this so much! Please post a photo when you have a bike on the trailer.  I was a little bit worried about having a tow bar on the Skyline, but having it hidden behind the number plate is genius
