act seems weird :D

all they did for mine was eng/vin number check, made sure there was no oil leaks, did a brakes test, wheelbase check, lights test and told me that i should prob remove my ebc cos cops dont like them ;)

none of this "wheres ur owners manual stuff... weird

btw i thought 4 seaters arent allowed to have baby capsule restraints?

  • 2 months later...

I just called the Registry and spoke to a young lady.

She was very helpful. Informed me that I DO NOT need to go over Dickson. Any authorised inspection station is fine.

This was because the vehicle has been australian complianced and registered in another state already.

She was quite clear about it.

I wonder if it has something to do with the vehicle being more the 10 years old??

Interesting that you all had to go over Dickson.

Ahh just checked the rego site (http://www.rego.act.gov.au) and they have removed the condition for all imports to go over dickson.

Sorry for giving you wrong information, a few months back it had to be taken over dickson, and also specified it on the above mentioned website.

Right...

So does that mean that even an imported car which has been in australia and registered in say NSW for a few years still requires to go into Dickson for a rego check??

I just purchased an R33 so I'm keen to get rego in the ACT.

Paul

They have taken out the condition that imports must go over dickson, but

any car that has never been rego'd in the A.C.T before must go over dickson for an ID Check before it can be transfered to A.C.T rego.

damn i guess we timed it badly nick?

for those that dont know i registered mine in the ACT about 2months after nicks and i got screwed around bigtime in regard to not knowing where to go. in the end they were ok with me at dickson, a young guy dave who works there was simply wonderfull to deal with.

but its much more helpfull to be able go to a mechanic and have it checked, and 1st things 1st i'd like to recomend ed out at integra automotive in queenbeyan. as many of the guys will agree (esp nick and ewan) he's a great guy, a great mechanic, and it would be a very good idea for you to have him do the inspec for you.

can he do ACT checks even though hes in queanbeyan?

what we need is a real skyline owner's manual. something that contains more info than the stock bits of rubbish people seem to be getting. something people can download off a site, print it off, bind it and keep in their glove box.

my manual isn't bad, fairly detailed. the pix are a bit rubbish though (photocopy of a photocopy). probably wouldn't be that tough to collate some of the stuff on this forum into a proper manual.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
