If you've just bought the car from interstate you will need to take it through an ID Inspections - try and get it looking at standard as possible for that - remove all noticeable obvious modifications.

If ID Inspection finds a problem you will then need to take it through Vehicle Inspections which they will go over your car with a fine tooth comb. Which the following applies:

Front mount will be fine if the previous owner hasnt cut the re-enforcement bar

Apexi turbo will need to go - unless you cant see it at all and looks standard around the turbo area

Forward facing plenum... I have no idea about that one...

Pod filters will be fine if its mounted securely

Power FC will need to go unless it looks standard

Suspension needs to be correct legal ride height and if its coilovers it needs an engineers certificate to go with it.

If it is your car and are moving from QLD to SA then all you need to do is transfer the rego over at the Transport SA branch if the cars in your name and keeping it in your name in SA.

No you won't need to take it to regency for an inspection.

If you are moving to SA from interstate and the car was registered in your name in the other state, then all you need to do is fill out a change of address form at any motor reg office and away you go.

If you bought the car from interstate and it isn't in your name then it will ahve to go to regency and be inspected.

Yep, what he said :)

i just recently purchased a vehicle from VIC and before it was able to be registered in ADEL, I had to go through regency, not the actual department where they inspect your car after a defect but its just an ID inspection. The main motive is to check that your VIN and engine # etc, matches. But when i was there, a man who just purchased an integra from SYD, with extensive mods had failed 2 times and was told he had to go through the defect area. So if you do need to go through ID inspection, make sure your car is stock as possible. My car was stock (V35) but I failed to past because my rear tint was apparently too dark!.. which i had to remove in the car park and came back 5min later and past.

Here are the steps:

1. Get ID check done at regency (only if the car is registered in another state)

2. Go to motor vehicles (around the corner)

3. Take old plates off your car before you go into the motor vehicles and fill out the hand in plates form (saves you a trip and a waiting line)

4. Pay stamp duty (4% for ever $100 over $3000), registration, admin fees($21), new plates($21) and for the ID check ($think its was $30-$50)

5. Drive your car away

If you car still has registration you need to write a cover letter and fax it to the state stating you still have rego left, attach this letter with the form you receive back from the motor vehicles.

Hope this helps everyone.

    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
