Too put it plain and simple the Administrator and the documents that will bring into act the changes of the 15 year rule are set in stone,

This is not a rumour or an assumption it is stating a fact from the horses mouth so you know what will happen as of JAN next year.

SEVS only vehicles will be allowed in under the ruling,

It will be vehicles built from Jan 1989 or newer,

Only a RAWS workshop will be allowed to import a maximum of 100 eligible vehicles.

The RAW is responsible to bring the vehicle up to state transport requirements,

No Mercs, BMW's, RX7's, MX5's, 80 Series Land Cruisers, MR2's, Patrols, High lux, Surf's, commercials and those other cars that flooded our shores.

It is a post to inform you not let you get up on the band wagon and posting from the champs site, as it means 90 model R32's, 300Z and other vehicles will be allowed in,

Don't shoot the messenger.

well atleast there letting some cars in! what about cefiro's,silvia's and laurels? and other 89 model cars?

We can only hope not...

BTW anyone want to by a cefiro :):mad:

Yeah, not too unexpected by anybody I wouldn't imagine.

With a senate majority goodbye to imports really over the next few years as they can push through whatever they like unopposed now. Oh well, thats what the Australian population voted, and I am sure some of you here - so this is what you get :mad:

Don't shoot the messenger.

*loads gun*.. oh, oops :)

This says personal imports are gone as of 1/1/2005 (apart from cars owned 12 months + OS ??). The RAWS will pick the cars they want and thereby control the market and the price. I can only see prices being driven up by this move, remembering that commercial car yards will be wanting cars as well as private buyers.

RAWS workshops will be happy as a potentially greater market share for them. Sad day for the true enthusiasts.

    • Lamb roast on Saturday will be different 🥲
    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
