Hey All,

Just wondering if anyone owns or has applied for a registration exemption.

"A person who will only use the vehicle for designated motorsport activities may also apply for an exemption."

--> See RTA Link HERE

If you have, can you please tell me what was the process or conditions?

I am trying to make a decision wether or not to sell my car or keep it as a dedicated track car.

Cheers.

you need to look at that link again, it applies to re-registering a previously registered vehicle which was written off

"

Vehicles authorised for repair under the written-off vehicle reforms

New laws regarding the management of written-off vehicles applying to ALL NSW light vehicles up to 15 years old were introduced on 31 January 2011.

A light vehicle is a registrable vehicle that is 4.5 tonnes or less gross vehicle mass (GVM). Light vehicles include cars, trailers, caravans and motorbikes.

The registered vehicle operator (or owner if it's not registered) can apply to Roads and Maritime Services for an 'Authorisation to Repair a written-off vehicle' if the vehicle is:

  • in an exempt vehicle category and
  • is able to be repaired to legislated vehicle safety standards.

Exempt vehicle categories include:

  • Hail damaged
  • Inherited
  • Applicant was the registered operator for more than 28 days before damage occurred.

A person who will only use the vehicle for designated motorsport activities may also apply for an exemption."

As far as I am aware, there is no rego available in NSW for rally cars. I beleive the only option is to apply for an Unregistered Vehicle Permit (UVP) every time you want to drive

Im going to get my brother around the P plate laws for a 33 GTR once he has the cash to buy one, we will move into an appartment as we work close, and ill register his 33 in my name, only cars he has access to will be my 34 GTR and "my" 33 GTR.

Do you have a grandparent, a pensioner, who doesn't drive anymore?

That person is still legally able to own a car and thus register it for free. The limit is one car under RMS rules.

A green slip is still required though.

And then it's your call as to whether or not to insure the car and put yourself down as a nominated driver.

The grandparent would be best to will that car to you in the process or pre-sign the 'Notice of Disposal' with you as the 'Buyer'

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
