I have bought a R32 gtr from a guy i know, handshake deal but no money has changed hands yet.

Basically I am worried about compliance rules

The car is a july 1989 model and was imported in september this year.

It has no compliance plates or anything which have been issued in australia, all it has is the japanese plate.

The seller assures me it is right to register in australia and that the only reason he hasn't done it is that he cant afford it.

It does not have a dashlight dimmer and I cant see any evidence of any mods done since it was imported.

Can anyone tell me the rules for Qld rego.

I dont want to hand over the cash and then find out It cannot be registered.

I have been told it is over 15 yrs therefore nothing is needed and the jap plate is sufficient.

Is there a site outlining what is needed to legalise this vehicle?

Any advice or help would be great Thanks Geoff.

Thanks Perhaps I should tell the seller to do this and just stick with the original agreed price. I bought it as a vehicle in a ready to register state there fore if it is not it should be upto him to complete.

If he wont do it how much do you think it wouild cost me to do it?, I will subtract this from the agreed price and organise it myself.

It does have a current Qld Safety Certificate should this have been issued?

Cheers

If it has not been complied to ADR's the safety cert. should NOT have been issued.

Compliance for a 15yr vehicles should only cost up to about $1500.

Provided the seller can provide you with an import approval....even if compliance has not yet been carried out.

If seller can not supply appropriate paperwork just walk away.

Turns out he imported it for a racecar (he didnt share this with me until I boned him for the paperwork) and it has no papers so I did a big goosestep and now am looking for another car.

Seems such a shame because It was a beautiful example of a 32 gtr.

oh well At least i know the rules now!!

Thanks for the help guys.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
