I don't know what a blue slip is but it's a more comprehensive pink slip right?

Normally to register a car you need to get a pink slip (check the car is roadworthy) and green slip (3rd party insurance). Only then can you go to the RTA and register the car.

P.S. make sure you bring your pink slip and green slip when you go to the RTA.

You need to take your car to an RTA authorised unregistered car inspection station (Check RTA for nearest one) - There's one in Fairfield.

Then you need to take the Blue Slip (the inspection station will give this to you) to the RTA with all the other Import Doco. The RTA probablly won't register the car 100% as you will most likely need an RTA identification inspection (checks for rebirthing). Ask for an interim rego sticker & plates.

THen you'll most likely need to take the car to the RTA for the identification inspection. Take all paperwork. You will need to get an RTA office to book an appointment (2-3 weeks wait) They will then give you a security sealed envelope (pass/fail) - Take this to an RTA office along with ALL your paperwork. Hopefully if everything is OK they will issue you with your full rego .

Hope this helps.

Cheers

Make sure the blue slip has the section regarding the engineering paperwork checked. My mate got a blue slip for his import but they failed to fill out the engineering paperwork section and he had to go back. When the queue in the RTA is very long this can really get you mad.....

Blue slip is not the piece of paper that the RTA sends you with the sticker on it. That is blue but not a blue slip. A blue slip is a comprehenive check (apparently) of the car and all paper work when your vehicle is unregistered or been out out of rego for longer than 3 months.

    • OK so I just bidded $500 on an R33 GTS4 that no one seems to want. Waiting on a call from the agent to see if I won. 32 GTS4 is for sale. I can't deal with the temptation to mod it.
    • Might be there for work later in the year. Wouldn't mind catching up with you fellas - can't have too many beers, but will consume copious amounts of takoyaki while executing an asian squat on the side of the road while you blokes sort out your hangovers.
    • I know one example is a anecdote not data, but I'm running the same Aeroflow 525 at full voltage through a regular relay, and while I've had other fuel problems including melting the factory fuel hat, the pump itself has been fine for years. Of course, they aren't *that* expensive these days, you could swap in a new one and see if the issue is resolve. I think you had a previous thread about fuel problems, have you been monitoring and logging fuel pressure? Is there anything voltage related (for example does the voltage go up when the pressure goes down)
    • Slap a 460L into the car, send its mum.  
    • So last night pulling away from the lights, I lost power for about 1 second. Bit weird, but I kept driving... 5 minutes later the pump completely dies. When I tried to start the car, the pump won't even prime.  I left the car for about an hour, tried to start it and it all appeared fine. Pump primed, car started, got the fuel pressure I should have.... Start driving home, 5 minutes later it dies again. I'm stuck in a shit spot this time going up hill with a car right behind me, so I just let the car continue to turn over while praying to the fuel pump gods. After about 2 minutes of turning the engine over, the fuel pump came back to life and I got home (only about another 5 min away).  So I've been digging around online, it seems like the 525 fuel pumps really don't like to be run at 100% all the time. I've found quite a few examples online of people killing their Walbro 525 pumps within about a year of usage when they are run without PWM.  So, my pump is an Aeroflow 525 (AF49-1057) and I've been running it at 100% without PWM. I'm thinking the Aeroflow 525 didn't like being run at 100% and has burnt itself up.  I really am sick of dealing with fuel pump issues, my current thoughts are -  1. Use a Walbro 450 and run it without PWM. It seems like these pumps hold up pretty well to being run at 100% all the time. I only make about 350kw and can't see me making any more power any time soon so this is probably a fine option.  2. Get a Walbro 525, run it with PWM. I know doing this will annoy me as I feel like with only 350kw, its extra expense that I don't "need" and I'll be thinking the whole time while setting it up that I should have gone with option 1. I know I'll be happy with this option when its setup and running, its only the initial setup frustration and cost as an issue.  3. Get a Walbro BKS1001 brushless pump. This is the fu*k it I'm already going PWM, might as well go full retard. This option just seems better in every way, with the only downside being cost. But I don't know much about this pump so I could be wrong.  Happy to get everyone's thoughts before I go digging around in the fuel tank again.
