pros and cons of club rego. kgo

It's cheap. That's good.

You need to be a member of a recognized club. That's bad.

It's cheap. That's good.

You can only drive your car 90 days per year. That's bad.

You have to have a club number plate and cant have any custom hektik combinationz. That's bad.

Yeah log books. If you get pulled over and you haven't filled out your log book detailing the trip that day, it's the same as driving unregistered and you get reamed by the 'long arm' of the law.

Not to mention weekends you won't drive it, so you can save up some weekdays with that. However...if you drive between 11pm and 1am...I'm guessing this counts as two days?!

The car has to be 25 years old. That's bad

used to be just club events and you had to have all the doco for that, became too hard.

it's now 90 days and you have to fill the book in prior to departing as above no book unrego.

car still has to be RWC.

car has to be more than 25 years old

thee is a very limited number of clubs that you can be a member of and you have to go though them to get it,

not like cams where if you are a member your are automatically eligible.

So if you have an old car you hardly drive then it all good.

but as a rule they make it a pain to discourage you, and you only save a couple hundred a year.

I looked at it for the stang but decided full rego was easier.

I thought club rego meant you can only go to events and stuff not just run down the shops

I used to think so too but then I've seen heaps of cars getting around with em on weekdays. I think it's permits from Vicroads that allow you to visit events only.

130 for a year.. that's about 500

Are club rego transferable to new owner if you're selling a car with one?

No

    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
