R33 Gtr NZ compliance

R33 Gtr NZ compliance

Hey guys, took my imported gtr for a compliance here in Nz but it came up with few problems. Firstly i have a HKS suspension installed so i need to get it LVV Certified which is going to be atoung $500-$600. Secondly if i do take it i am sure they are gona say that the muffler isnt stock so then i will have to pay for that. Think its extra $200-$300 and thirdly they might also point out that the wheels are not stock either, which will be another $200. I have got the NISMO wheels made my RAYS. So some of the Gtr's came with them and others came with the isonic r33 wheels. Does anyone know if they are going to make an issue out of these wheels? I have included the photos of the wheels and the exhaust. I am sure the exhaust is aftermarket but could someone please confirm. Also, all this could be avoided if i just put the stock suspension in and take it back, then i wont have to get a LVV done. So does anyone know where i can get the stock coilovers for my r33? Any help is appreciated.

Just go somewhere else for the LVV cert - it shouldn't cost more for different wheels, muffler etc - its just one price for the cert (which you will need anyway). The main pain will be fitting driveshaft loops (tedious but cheaper if you do it yourself).  My cert involved RB30 engine, bigger brakes, wheels, custom exhaust, different seats and probably a few more for around $500 - although it was a few years ago. Go online to see where LVV certifiers are to be found and ring around for a price (they all charge different prices).

Mine was Neil Fraser but he has handed over to someone else at Fraser Cars. There are about 10 on the Auckland list and almost all do category 1a and 1b which is what you want. Have a read of the categories as well if you like.
