u need to yake the car over the pits for an inspection and then u can get WA plates issued if it passes ok, costs around $50 for an inspection then around $15 for new plates, and you'll also have to pay licencing fees too at that time which will prob be around $230 for 6 months, im pretty sure if the car was in your name in Tassie u wont have to pay stamp duty only transfer which shouldnt be too much,

hope that helps :(;):)

do u have to rip the wing off and stuff? and we have guages all over the passenger dash and on the drivers door panel bit. When we got caught be the cops in perth he said we need permits for everything? is it just easier to take it all off to go over the pits?

I just transferred qld plates to wa a cpl months ago on the car i bought... the first reply above ^^^ has it right... but just in case the car wasnt already in your name (ie. u bought it from someone and it has tassie plates) then a couple of extra bits of info... as well as all the $ mentioned above you will also need to pay the Stamp Duty before they'll give you new plates.

Also, they dont tell you this and most people end up throwing away the receipt... but you'll also be entitled to a refund from Tassie Licensing of the proportion of Rego left on the Tassie rego. When you hand in your tassie plates you'll get a receipt for them, and the refund will be from that date forward - you need to fill out some forms from Tassie Licensing and attach the receipt and post it off.

As for mods etc - what I did was book an inspection but a few days before went to the inspection centre and just walked in and spoke to the inspector for a couple of mins inbetween inspections. I just said "Hi, getting my plates changed over and doing a first registration in WA inspection on Thursday. It has some mods that were OK in tassie and just wanted to quickly ask what I'll need to take off. Are dash mount gauges etc ok, and what about....." Easy way to avoid them not passing you and paying another fee and re-booking again.

:rolleyes:

o wicked...im not as scared now...

The car is in our name, has been for 4 months or something so i shouldnt have to pay stamp again.... and the rego is due this month so its probably not worth getting receipts and stuff huh?

thanks heaps...!!

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
