Hey dudes,

pretty much i'm lookin at buying a car that i will only use as a track car. It is already in australia, registered in qld but i'm thinkin of bringin it down to VIC, leave it unregistered and just use it at the track.

Now i was wondering is there any sort of permit u can get that will allow me to drive my car to and from events. I think CAMS has some sort of this thing somewhere in there licensing details, but i couldnt find it. So is there any cams license that will allow me to drive my car directly to and from events.

And speaking of cams who would i speak to off these forums if i wished to become an official sau member, which will make me eligable for a cams license.

Cheers guys

Simon

i think you can get a discounted registration, that lets you take classic,etc cars out on weekends or during organised events.

if the car isnt street legal, i dont think they will let you drive to an fro events. trailer time.

just my understanding, which could well be unfounded, etc.

Drop me a line. I have a wad of CAMS and SAU Vic forms sitting on my desk.

I know Vic roads have permits for stuff liek that and I remember seeing a "single trip" section which I think would be for this kind of thing. Give them a call and they will sort you out.

$50 a year for SAU Vic (plus $20 joining fee) and $80 for your L2S CAMS Licence, cheapest in Vic I think you'll find, cheers.

If you have ANY cam's license, then you can apply for a Rally Permit. Its allows you to take your car to and from ANY Cam's events (so a cams registered Skyline cruise is fine), and dosen't require the car to be road legal.

Failing that just get a A-Frame and tow the car behind your skyline ;) Its what I'll be doin with my race use AE86. I've got access to trade plates too so I can drive around on them to and from events and workshops etc.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
