its mostly a mith that the Pit is a licensing black hole (of course depending where you go) Apparently Warwick is a no-go, but East Perth was excellent, took an RX7 over there with rock hard suspension, intake bits, massive exhaust, and while he was fairly thorough he wasn't a bastard. Was taken for a drive and given my plates.

Dont stress too much, just try East Perth and welshpool first.

Hi guys

New in these forums - a few posts in the Stagea section... about to (hopefully) take delivery of my Neo6 "family wagon" in a few weeks :D

I am buying mine from an eastern states import yard - never been registered (newly complied) - so will come off the transporter at my door - then off to the pits for inspection... anyone know if this first time registration will be any different to a transfer from another state that uve said in this thread not to worry too much about??? Its important coz I have the option of getting some parts (rims, lowering, tow-bar) fitted at the yard before it comes over - but wont do the mods til after rego if anyone knows it will be under a closer or different type of inspection coz its the first time????

Thanks

Adam

PS Also thining of getting a custom towball fitted in QLD - would the pits guys worry about it if it looked done right? Or do they need load-rating stickers etc on them legally?

if your mods are reasonable and legal i wouldnt worry 2 much . ie rims are within allowed size difference and cars not 2 low . i dont know about tow bars though .

as your interstate rego is your main form of vehical identification you will need to make sure youve got all the import / compliance paper work and proof of ownership . give the department of planning and infrastructure a call and see what they require . also some states will give you a temporary rego for interstate transfer that might help to .

but give them a call and make sure , essentially youve got to prove ownership and compliance .

in terms of inspection tho everything will be the same , its just paperwork difference .

also i got my transfer at warrick , no probs . if you got a pretty stock skyline/stagea i wouldnt worry at all

Id suggest that a first time inspection of a car thats never been regoed will be 1) more expensive (113 dollars vs 56 dollars) and more indepth as the engineering papers etc will have to be double checked.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
