Tosh, what's the go with that? Do you know of any doco on the personal import rules? Planning to move to japan in a year, would like to bring back something with me. :)

yeh I have the RTA Documentation for PI's

I printed it and have it in my car all the time.... I think I lost the PDF though :D

I have a suspicion that the documentation is only applicable to NSW though.... so it might be different for QLD.

Basically you have to own the car O/S for 12 months and provide all sorts of proof papers when you come back home...

Do you know that PI cars DO NOT HAVE TO CONFORM TO ANY ADR RULES.

Do you that that effectively makes you IMMUNE to any sort of defect - doesn't matter if it's noise, emissions whatever.

Sooo...

I'm thinking I import an R34 GT-R V-Spec and make it fullee... I mean top mount super single HKS T51R SPL, no cat, 115dB muffler, 20" rims, carbon panels, neons flashing all the time, no seatbelts, caged, stripped interior, big fark off venting BOV, Omega stickers all over it and you point to the GOLD coloured compliance plate and the cops can't do shit.

And take a slow cruise down da Chapz...

T.

Tony that's not correct.....

The car has to meet safety standards so while I can't get defected under ADR's I can if the stuff is unsafe.

And Emissions still have to be met, while the RTA rules may be VERY lenient, the EPA are not...

    • I’m here solo don’t have any hands to help so haven’t hit it with a timing light 
    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
