Hey guys,

So a mate of mine reckons that if you have a CAMS licence, you are able to obtain a permit to drive a "race use only import" on the road. This would be for the sole purpose of travelling to and from events/workshops but could obviously be embelished a little :rolleyes:

Is this true? Or is this a twisted version of the truth?

 CAMS Inspection Record for DRC signed by Scrutineer (Doc No. Y);

 DoT Vehicle Standards Exemption approval letter; and

 Engineer’s reports covering any special modifications, e.g. steering, roll cage, brake hoses where applicable (Refer to CAMS DRC Manual).

7. Upon successful completion of the Examiners Inspection the DRC will be eligible for licensing which can be completed at the same visit. DRC number plates will be issued by DoT at this point. Note cars being licensed for the first time will also be subject to full Stamp Duty rates.

 To drive directly to and from and participate in an official CAMS motorsport event, including scrutineering;

 To drive to and from official promotional events, including media days and displays;

 To drive to and from maintenance/repair establishments;

DRC Annual Renewal

All CAMS DRC’s will undergo an annual renewal inspection for compliance with the technical requirements of the DRC Manual by a CAMS’ Scrutineer to retain DRC eligibility and subsequent licence renewal. Scrutineering can be conducted at pre-event scrutineering, the final method/details of annual renewal inspections to be advised by CAMS following implementation of the DRC Program.

Completion of the annual inspection will be recorded in that vehicle’s CAMS Log Book. DRC’s which no longer meet the criteria of the CAMS DRC Program or fail to be presented for annual inspection will cease to be considered a CAMS DRC and will be removed from the listing, with the DoT being advised for cancellation of the DRC registration

R35 GTR here I come baby!

R35 GTR here I come baby!

You need to log book the car and show you will be entering events, the car must be to cams spec (r.g roll cage which means you are looking min 5k just for the cage)

Plus you need a cams license and not just a lvl 2 speed which means you need to get your events log and take a test etc to go to the higher level

    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
