plenty of us in the same boat and compliance shops with no room to take any more cars in to complete the compliance work, as they can't let the cars they've done go until the compliance plates are attached :P

I'm in the same situation..

My 34 GTR is sitting at the compliance shop where its been for a month now.

just waiting for a silly compliance sticker..

They've told me they will call me when it arrives, it takes a lot of control not to annoy them everyday.

I hope i can pick it up next week.

It isn't the "sticker" they are waiting for, it is due to other reasons related to the workshop and DOTARS, once the car clears you fax off for the plate and 3 days later you have it.

Waiting for the plate as a reason is a crock, waiting for the paper work to clear or even be submitted is more the truth.

Ok yeah well whatever the reason. My beast is sitting in the workshop gathering dust.

Can't wait to pick it up and start modifying it.

When I applied for my compliance plate I was given the option to pay a little extra to get it through quicker.

Received the compliance sticker in 3 days.

that's probably because the workshop has maxed their plate allowance and they're getting them back in dribs and drabs, so who ever pays the most gets preference. There's no "fast queue" they can put you on if you pay more, except one of their own making :D

i would just like to add that i wash my self with a rag attached to a stick, i lather it up using bodywash and just go to town - seriously

i told the compliance shop that and then they said that i have to wait for a plate, i waited for a plate but it hasn't come, i wait three whole waits!!!!

what should i do???

i'm thinking i might call iron chef and tell him how i feel about the situation at hand here.

I think he's sending me a coded message re the reacharound...

I purchased a 370GT Type-SP on the 22nd of July! It took 7 weeks to get an import certificate!

Bespoke in Adelaide said it will take roughly anywhere of up to 2 month to comply 'cause of some Victorian Government audit I didn’t want my car collecting dust and sitting in the sun, taking up space at the workshop so I applied for a Temporary Unregistered Permit on the 25th of last month then took her home Whilst I wait for the DETORS Sticker.

I have had her home in the Garage for a weeks and a half now, washed her 3 times and have had a professional car detailer come and detailer her at home (for a 6 pack ;) ). But seems like forever, every day as I wait for a Telephone call from Goran and say: “We have the sticker come and drop your car off and I’ll run her in Regency!”

Don’t by any means digest this post as a hack at Bespoke, Goran wants to be payed ASAP and it’s not in his control, plus he has great communication and can answer my every email and txt! Frigging Government employees should get off their fat ass!

Sometimes I think I should have just bought an IS-350 or 370GT locally, this car I have been funding for 3 months cannot even be driven yet (yells at the top of voice and punches desk!)

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
