Well my baby has now been transferred from NSW to ACT rego and I have therefore lost my number plates.

So if there are any New South Welshman/Welshwoman out in our merry group with a GTR my old plates(GTR OOM) should now be available in the NSW.

On the bright side I do have some Y series plates(ends in GT 32R) on order that should do the job :-)

I had more money than sense when I first got my plates for the GTS-T. Still I like em on the GTR but $1800 could buy all sorts of nice parts for the car. Cost is $122 for replacement - but I know this fella who .... if your interested

I am advised there is a cheaper method for Personailsed Plates.

1. Register a business (whatever name you like) $100-$150

2. Get the plates (Business Name) $350 ?

3. Do nothing with the business! - Claim the cost of the plates as a tax loss.

Meh - Sounds good, anyone want to test this?

It's dodgy...i had a long chat with the lady at the Shop Front one day about ways to get around it, and she was very forthcoming with information. However, i forget pretty much everything she said, as this was a good few months ago

I have know that ppl have done that before, reg a buss then used the something about the buss name in the number plate of the car. Reg buss in the ACT will cost you $110, then to buy the plates it will cost $500. (have to have something to do with buss name.) YOu will also pay a bit more for reg as your car will now be a buss car, so you can park in loading zones and shit.

After talking to an accountant, you have to earn at least $4 000 before you can claim anything as a loss. They put this in place to stop people getting a business name, and buy heaps of stuff they wanted so they could claim it back.

My GF has a business name, but had not yet earned enough to claim her business expenses at a loss. This is how I found out about it. This can carry on for a number of years until you've accumulated at least 4 g's of business.

what was the process transfering nsw rego to act? I made some early enquiries and was told I had to have an inspection-I am concerned about getting knocked back on things like exhaust, wheels, inductions etc. (had bad experiences in the past-17 defects!-which were all BS)

Go and get what I like to call a REGO muffler made for you. This way you go over the pits/rego station with the pee shooter and then when you get home you take it of. Also helps with if you ever get a defect for noise you go home and get the pee shooter for rego etc. Braddon exhaust made ours and I am sure they would do you a good deal also. Dan

I was lucky with regards to transferring rego from NSW to ACT 'cause my GTR was one of the australian release ones so I didn't have to go over the pits.

As far as I know you now have to take all imports over the pits. But saying that I'm not sure if you have to go over the pits if you're transferring ACT rego to ACT rego.

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
