How about some more details?

Assuming the car is 15 years old, there is no reason why you would have issues with the compliance work itself, the engineering side of it on the other hand might be a different story

Provided the car complies with our ADR's (seatbelts, intrusion bars etc) and passes a blueslip, it shouldnt have any worries. This is, provided it is a 89/90 model. If its a SEVS car, then you can forget about it :D

It's an 89 model, and everything else is being sorted to comply with our ADRs, but now two compliance workshops have advised that the TD07 is too big and wouldn't pass for emission reasons?

mate you do not need the car complied if it is a 15yo import.

What you do need is an engineer who is willing to sign it off for you, and the rules are different from state to state

That's the problem - finding an engineer in VIC that will sign off on this aspect.

talk to RTFGTR. he has just been through this with a T78 equipped GTR. perhaps ask him who was able to sort it out for him.

my 32 coming into the country also has a T78. I haven't been told it is too much of a hassle with compliance, so i'm not too worried.

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
