HEy all...

I just got a R33 1994 GTST... imported it early september and now its finally on the road.... got number plates and everything but they said i have to go and get an RTA identity inspection still before they give me the rego sticker.. but i got a temporary one for the moment!!!

What do they do in this inspection???.. well my car is pretty much stock anyway.. but do they just match up paper work and chassis number etc.. just a double check?

anyway guys hope to see you on the road...

I was lucky enough to avoid this inspection even though the RTA officer was trying his hardest to make me go get one... The benefits of registering some place that doesn't see any imports and as such doesn't really know the system...

I think that RTA inspection is to check the paperwork depicts the car as it actually is. To make sure that what the enginneering and compliancer has said is true and correct.

RTA inpsection is to make sure the car is roadworthy

so they check compliance work and also other stuff like lights, brakes, ride height, modifications

if your car isnt modified too much they wont care. just make sure all your lights/horn/seatbelts (i cant think of anything else) work!! you might even be able to pick up a checklist from the RTA before taking it over the pits which outlines what you need to have

rta identity inspection is nothing to do with the roadworthy shit on the car. thats for pink slips.

identify check is to check the car isnt a chop job, illegal import bla bla bla.

you need your compliance papers, proof of purchase, rego papers etc for it.

they just wanna check all the chassis and engine numbers, make sure its not rebirthed, cut n shut or whatever.

    • Yeah, sort of blurring two different things together, aren't we? I just meant O2 feedback closed loop. I used to have a 0-1V LCD meter on my dash, wired directly to the O2 sensor signal. So you could easily see what it was doing. Normal running it would flick back and forth nicely. Slow down to an idle and it would keep flicking, as the ECU tried to servo to maintain stoich, but it would slow down as each swing happened until it would stay at one end of the scale. As I said above, the sensor heater is not enough to keep it hot enough when there is also little heat in the exhaust flow. Give it a blip and it would start swinging again, then peter out again. Meanwhile, idle speed control would run just fine, because unrelated.
    • It's not even O2 feedback, it's just simply when the ECU sees the closed TPS signal for whatever reason the idle will start steadily dropping until the engine dies. With the TPS adjusted to not trigger closed TPS it will idle at some ridiculously high RPM and something like 6 degrees of timing. In the absence of getting eyes on it personally and a lot of quality time doing diagnostics I couldn't tell you what the real problem was but it was interesting nonetheless
    • Oof. One of my mates has an R34 GT-R that he initially was a "I want to go twins for response and convenience" on his stock 2.6 with Kelford 272 cams, but his friends are pests and were always in his ear about their place being in the bin.   Eventually one of the 2860-5s decided to add it's own input and force his hand, so he conceded and went for a Pulsar 6262G ("G35 900") with T4 0.85 hotside.    Here's an overlay of the results, same cams, same stock bottom end, same boost, same fuel, just from a pretty tidy 2860-5 install to a Pulsar turbo on a 6boost maniifold on BP98.   Worth mentioning here, it may seem like a dead horse thing but the dyno plot doesn't tell the story of how much better it is to drive - transient response has completely changed the car, he used to have flat foot shifting to stop it having to wind up again on gear changes even at >7000rpm... now it builds boost faster than that even short shifting.   It's 100% transformed the car before you even consider how much better it holds on: Pulsar and Garrett aren't the same, but from our experience if you're just looking for a better drive and the ability to make the same or more power I think the divided G30 770 would probably be the smallest I'd go to.
    • Great work Duncan, any events local you will give it a test once all done?
