There will be something, somewhere. Maybe in the driver or passenger's door jab if not under the bonnet.

Who did you buy it from?

If nothing else, you can contact DOTARS and get a copy of the import approval based on your japanese VIN#. It will be something like ER34-xxxxxx.

dotras I'm not sure :P but DOTARS are the federal govt department that issue import approvals for every car that enters the country. They will have a record of how your car entered and with what sort of approval that should help https://infrastructure.gov.au/vehicles/imports/

Hey guys,

I'm in the process of getting a car complied - the RAWS workshop said they had sent off the paperwork almost 3 weeks ago...

Just wondering if any of you guys have recently had a car complied and how long it took DOTARS to get the plate back?

Cheers :)

Strap yourself in mate, it can take anywhere from 4 - 8 weeks. Mine took close to 8. I'd say 6 - 8 is the norm, with anything less than 6 being a big bonus.

    • Yeah I also looked at Plazmaman, but, it ended up alot  cheaper getting black ones through EFI when you also added in the delivery cost
    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
