I am thinking of import a race only car.

I knew that i require a CAMS licence but i am not sure what level of cams lic. will eligible for this

and once the car landed, other than the FOB cost, what else i need to pay in order to register it as a race only car? (tax, race car compliance?)

how much a year for register?

thanks

To obtain an Import Approval you will require a Level 3 CAMS licence, which will allow you to import the vehicle and compete on the track (as the some of vehicles was sold in Australia it is otherwise ineligible for import). Once imported for race purposes, the vehicle can be B registered, allowing you to drive it on public roads only to and from events and for other legitimate purposes. A Level 3 licence is not all that difficult to obtain -- contact CAMS directly to find out more.

I checked out race rego with VICROADS about six months ago and in Victoria any car that isn't 30 years old or more can only get race?rally reg on a race by race basis!!

So basically everytime you want to drive the car you have to apply for temp rego for the race days only and supply the entry documentation etc!

All the dodgy importers in Melb Fooked up the rally rego scheme about 5 years back by abusing it.

In the end it was all too hard and I bought a trailer to carry my car around

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
