Hey guys,

I tried using the search bar, but could not find any related threads, so either I'm retarded or there aren't any. Im thinking its the former over the latter. I have got my SII R33 GTST in compliance at the moment in Adelaide. We have gone through what needs to be dome (roadworthy wise) and they started physically working on it last Tuesday. I was wondering, how long roughly should it take to get the core of compliance done? Obviously there are other things that need to be done, specific to the vehicle, but roughly how long can i expect to wait?

Cheers

Mine took about 2.5 weeks. All up from when I purchased it in Japan at auction to now when it's been issued a RWC today has taken a touch under 3 months. Pretty much the same as the last car I imported.

honestly, how long is a piece of string? I've seen it done as fast as a few days and as slow as 18 months. my guess is yours will be somewhere in between.

one piece of advice. don't call them everyday asking how it's going. they will call you as soon as it's done. trust me. they want to get paid. at most call them once a week if you absolutely must. any more than that will just give them the shits and possibly mean they take a few extra days just to annoy you.

      R34 Series 1 And 2 Front Reo Difference?

      By LjB123 · Posted

      Awesome to know. I have a Series 1, and When pulling my front bumper off for the first time i realised my reo/crash bar was a bit worse for wear, and was going to try pick up a better one soon just so i can replace it. Someone is selling a full series 2 front bar and brackets for a decent price, so was going to probably reuse my brackets and install the new second hand reo/crash bar. I also have a genuine Altia body kit to do up, spray and put on, and not sure if that will use the series 1 or series 2 brackets for the front bumper, so having both will be handy, and knowing i can drill holes out to make stuff fit between series is also handy to know!

      R34 Series 1 And 2 Front Reo Difference?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I should also say that the while they are different the only parts that matter are the center headlight supports and center bar from S1 to S2. The center bar will work, but the S1 has holes that clips go through into the S1 bumper. So if you were super cheap you could simply drill the S2 bar. Same thing with the side/wings. They have slightly different 'clips' but can be made to work. The center headlight brackets however, cannot. This is also where the GTR differs, which has a different center bar, and different headlight supports (to either GTT system), it also has different 'wing' headlight supports which is what I am calling under the headlight. However those CAN be made to work with the GTT Reo for a GTR front bar by a small spacer and a drill/tapping a thread into the reo because the bolt positions are slightly different. So people only really need the center brackets to go between GTT S1, GTT S2, and GTR if you are happy to do some tinkering.

      rb20de neo +t conversion - boost pressure sensor needed?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      If this, then this You can't really get away without it. There are hacks that you can do in Nistune, but things are much easier with the sensor than without it. If you're not planning to Nistune the ECU, then stop right now and add it to your plan anyway, because the ECU is going to shit the bed over the missing ABS and TC computers that it expects to see, and you need Nistune to stop it chucking all its toys over the side of the crib.

      rb20de neo +t conversion - boost pressure sensor needed?

      By kindaruined · Posted

      hey guys, so ive done a complete +t conversion using mostly stock parts on my rb20de neo r34.  Im wanting to know if a boost pressure sensor is needed? Seems like the engine cuts out when i try to do a pull and I have a feeling its because a boost pressure sensor is missing. I'm using a stock r34 rb25det neo ecu.
