Rego

[cherring]

The Rego is up on my newly acquired R32, and I went to take it for a pink slip, and the mechanic didn't want to pass it as the sills were squashed, a common problem I'm gathering from cruising the forums. He wasn't a dick about it though, and I'm thankful he just said he couldn't pass it and sent me on my way without writing it up and sending it through to the RTA. So I am doing some work on fixing that up, and am wondering, when I am done, does anyone have a place I should go to that is Penrith/Blacktown way that they recommend as being good with Skylines/imports ?

I'm not really looking for someone to pass it no questions asked, I think apart from the sills the car is fine, and if it's not I kind of want to know, more that I don't want to accidentally go to place that is going to be tough on it unnecessarily because it's an import.

Cheers guys.

Not to be pedantic at all; what exactly do you mean by sills? Probably a fairly common thing, I'm just not 100% familiar with the terminology

But as Terry said: TSI in Blacktown.

Most are wrecked from people using normal floor jacks instead of the appropriate scissor jacks.

It can also be from when they're imported, when they load up cars on the docks with forklifts apparently

Japan just doesn't give a shit how they handle these cars lol. I too was surprised to hear how they get handled lol. In relation to this thread, I think every skyline I've seen has has rooted sills. I really didn't think this would impact a pink slip. I know a few places around Guildford who will pass you. Pm me if needed.

normally it shouldn't unless there was a very deep & noticeable creasing along the rail where the jackpoints are

pretty easy to tell if it was due to a forklift as there will be symmetrical crease points on either side & front+back of the car

I didn't think it would, except for they were folded up along almost the length of both sides of the car. Thanks for all the suggestions guys, am getting the sills straightened back down, then looks like I have a bit to go on. Projects always crop up a few things that you aren't expecting, but it'll be worth it when it's done
