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'

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
