hi guys! I'm new to the forum and I need some help desperately. I've basically bought a black skyline r32 1990 model gtst and it's got rego till oct 2011 from Victoria.

the car is stock as a rock with 2 mods - rear coils and an air pod. no exhaust, rb20, nothing.

I've driven to 8 diff mechanics and they give me a straight up no and saying it's an import and they cant do it. I'm getting desperate cos I got 14 days to rego the car and I bought it on Tuesday.

can anyone help me pls? I'm in parramatta but I'm willing to drive.

pls pm me if that's easier.

since you brought it from out of state you have 3 months, the 14 day thing is only if you buy it in NSW cause as far as th RTA are concerned it is a unregoed car hence the blueslip, you will need a air box, premier auto at sunblest st mount druitt did my R34 (brought it from the ACT ) and he made it very easy and knew excatly what needed to be done

Have you tried final stage at merrylands? Surely it can't be that hard to find a place... There are hundreds of skylines on the streets in sydney and many far from blue slip passable... Cover your pod filter that should help with that issue. Advan performance at auburn will do blue slips I think. Make sure all the safety standards/features are up to scratch as that is mostly what is checked. I wont believe that every modified skyline out here returns to stock to pass blue slip.

Hey mate,

If you get cought out I know someone on the Northern Beaches who would do it no problem.

As know it's quite a drive from where you are, but if you get stuck let me know.

i just found out the car has no compliance plates or stickers on it at all.

ive called up transport in canberra and they can provide me with some docs stating i can rego the car in nsw in my name.

will i need an engineering cert or?

vic roads states the car is fine and not stolen but to rego in nsw, its a lot harder cos nsw rta is such a bitch!

anyone gone through this road or know what to do? ive looked everywhere in the car for the compliance but nothing.

i only have the papers from when the prev owner bought it from a dealership and tried calling the dealership but number is disconnected. =[

Thats gonna be hard. Try TSI at blacktown, top secret imports. See if the guy there will compliance it for you, although generally they wouldn't compliance a car not imported by them.

How did you manage to buy a non aus complianced car? That is fairly dodgy of the seller. They import then sell off.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
