How do I go about getting rego for my car when it arrives? It's getting shipped from brisbane where it was complied.

Does anyone know a good place to get a blue slip with no major hassles with mods?

I'll be wanting to get the car rego'ed ASAP as I've been waiting for my new car for ages now.....

Who can help me?

Hi Dave, I did the R32 and it was simple. However it was 10 years old, so that meant it didnt near a 3rd tier inspection. What you'll need to do is ring the RTA to confirm, and arrange a 3rd tier inspection at one of their stations.

What mods are on the car atm? Getting a blue slip passed is simple (I got mine done at Broady Automotive at Hornsby, I think you can get it almost anywhere?), but if you've got serious non standard mods or items of concern they may show up on the 3rd tier (im not sure cause I havnt done it myself)

I think you'll be able to drive around on temp plates once you have a blue slip and see the RTA before their inspection.

GODDAMMIT!!!

I've waited long enough as it is......

Did they give you any hassles with mods on the car or was it stock when you got it rego'ed?

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
