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

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
