Historic car rego question.

Hi Everyone,

I know it’s a long shot on these old forums….. but I’m looking at applying for a historic rego this year & wondering if anyone has info on this topic, or maybe even first hand experience?

One hurdle would be belonging to a car club & I’m guessing that SA SAU is no longer operating. If not, what would be a good car club that is recognised by Service SA.

oh yeah it’s for a 1995 R33 GTR.

Cheers,

Lance

No first hand experience, but info on the scheme is available at https://www.sa.gov.au/topics/driving-and-transport/registration/conditional-registration/historic-left-hand-drive-and-street-rod-vehicles

A list of SA car clubs (appears to not be complete, and doesn't specify if they can do historic rego, but I can't do all the work for you): http://australiancar.reviews/clubs_sa.php

G’day,

Yes thank you for the links. I did manage to find that info before posting here, but I’m still after a little more in depth knowledge before I start blazing my own trail.

I would be interested if anyone is a member of one of the many car clubs in SA. If that car club is recognised by Service SA, if they can do historic rego checks, how much it costs to do both, the historic check, & be part of the car club & of course if the car club is inclusive of JDM cars & active.

Also if there are any other hurdles in the process that aren’t glaringly obvious, & what the saving is between normal rego & historic rego annual fees.

I know I can just start randomly dialling car clubs & emailing Service SA, but thought I’d ask SAU SA for assistance first, to try & get a head start.

Much appreciated,

Lance.

      No engine fan = quieter getrag ???

      By Butters · Posted

      Saw this video today from Adam LZ.    Long story short is he is claiming that the load from the engine fan once the fan clutch heats up(engaged) is increasing the getrag rattle(at idle) when you don't have a dual mass flywheel.  Before I go buying an electric fan setup .... Anyone heard of this ?    I must admit when my car is cold the getrag is pretty quiet and I do notice the rattle after it is all warmed up. I've always assumed this is due to the gearbox oil temp and tolerances of metal.

      Yep it sure does.   Tone wheel lines up in the same spot perfectly.

      Something I meant to say when we were chatting the other night about having an open trailer floor being great to work on a car, but you've never used the feature... It's a great place to park a car after doing suspension component changes, and do the tightening of all the bushes with the car sitting at full ride height. Especially when you don't have a 4 post hoist!

      That is way more science than even I would use. I just eyeball it, not even accounting for the non-verticality of the tape measure when held on the lip and the centre at the same time. +/- 2mm is good enough for the girls I go out with.

      So, before putting them in I need to understand the stock ride height. This is how I measured it: First, check the diameter of the wheel's centre cap, it was 52mm. Then put a piece of masking tape approximately across the centre and measure 27mm (half) from at least 3 sides to get a reasonable idea of the centre of the wheel cap. Mark that with a horizontal line as one measuring point. Then, directly above the wheel on the guard, put another piece of masking tape in approximately the centre. Use a string line to find out the point on the guard above the centre of the wheel cap and mark that. Then it is simple, just a tape measure to check the distance from centre of the wheel to the centre of the guard. Final results where  LF: 381mm RF: 379mm LR: 401mm RR: 400mm Pretty even considering they are 120,000klm old factory springs, lets call that 380 front and 400 rear.
