car inspection

[Guest neoGT-25]

Hey all

I have found a nice A31 NISSAN CEFIRO for sale... only problem is, im in qld

now, before i buy her, i want to get it inspected and possibly compression tested (are compression tests worth doing & how much?) Since im in qld, i wouldent have a clue who to get it tested by and i have heard that RACV arnt very good with import inspections??

could someone please give me an idea of who to go to? web-links? phone numbers? anything like that!

thanks, Cameron

Its in QLD .. RACQ up here will do inspections, but same problem as VIC in that they might not fully know imports. It will be expensive also if you are not a member. Could try giving them a call, and they'll be able to fax you the results of the test.

Compression test is the same procedure no matter what vehicle, but its just a bitch of a bitch on the RB20's as you gotta pull a few bits off which they don't like doing.

The number for their bookings service is: (07) 3361 2700

ahhh wait... its auto and i cbf getting a trans-conversion

[predator]

lol.. you want a drift car don't you?

At $9k -- even with an autoconversions would be a good deal if you ask me.. at the time you can also get the RB25DET box put in which will be heaps stronger anyhow. I'd say at a guess the fuse would be possible as it uses a similar ATESSA system to the R32 GTR from what I've read.

i see

i will look into it!

problem is... the one i found in melb has much better bits... inc a 2way mech lsd, manual conversion, heavy duty clutch, hks pod, turbo timer, strut brace, drift wheels (16"), 2x cat back zorsts (one mild steel, one stainless) droped on springs too...
