Registering A Non-Complied Car, Anyone Done This?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I've just bought myself a 32 GTR which i was led to beleive had previously been registered in aus and was complied ready to go, turns out this isn't true :(

So basically i need to put the car through transport and get an Australian VIN number stamped onto the chassis before i can proceed to register it, has anyone done this before? i'm really concerned about whats going to happen when it reaches transport as its had a little work done to it and is also a bit rough around the edges atm, the main concern i have though is it has an RB30 bottom end in it.

I'm also worried about the costs involved if they need to put side-intrusion bars in and change seatbelts, etc..

Any info will be appreciated,

Cheers,

Daniel.

Yeah i have a few times , does it have all the paperwork? (i.e import approval , engineers certificate if necessary , ais inspection ) , if it was a pre 89 , it will need aus spec seatbelts , babyseat bolts , r/h mirror in memory and usually the ais station puts the vin on the car with number/letter punch thingys

It's not a blue gtr with a odd looking front bar?

It did have an odd bar so yeah its it, its a 12/1990 model, i have the import document with the approval number, and its been to an AIS and had an inspection done, failed for tint, "unapproved suspension mods" (coilovers) and no australian compliance plate, tint has been removed, and the coilovers will be removed if it fails for it again where i'm going... just concerned about getting the compliance plate/vin number.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
