Hey guys

Just trying to work something out, After compliance you get the report for your car, mine is weighing in at 1560KG's. it sux cause you go into the next bracket and have to pay $352.00 rego a year.

I was just wondering what everyone elses weight is? seems a little heavy for the lightest of the GTR's,

any help would be appreciated

mark :)

$353 a year rego, youar a lucky lucky man here in ACT my GTR rego is $710 a year so be happy!!!!

Anyway back on point my GTR was 1460kg before i started any weight reduction measures, if i where you i would strip things out of my car take it to a weigh station get a print out and take it to rego.

in that comparrison then yeah, but back to the topic

1460 eh? what the heck, did they sit a truck driver in my car while it was on there!

so if I take tools and jack and stuff out of theboot, drive it down there with almost no fuel then that shuld be ok?

the next bracket down is only like 265 which is why I was annoyed.

cheers

I've got gram lights so I would have thought that would have made a difference

but the guy said bring it down and he'll do the weigh bridge report again, $15. its 2 mins around the corner from my house. so I'm going on saturday.

I'm gonna take all the floor mats, everything from the boot out and take it down again. there is no way it can be that heavy, should only be 1510 like your cars, hopefully its 1504 or less that way I can be in the next bracket down for reg

I'll drive it down there with the light on, servo is 200m down the rd, I don't have much of a stereo in mine by the way

cheers guys, mark

99 R32 gtr tare weight is 1430 kgs ( all fluids but no petrol in it )

93 mod =1480kg

93 v-spec +94 v-spec II =1500 kg

R33 gtr =1530 kg

R33 v-spec =1540 kg

R34 gtr =1540 kg

R34 v-spec =1560 kg

R34 m-spec=1580 kg

It depends on who did the compliance as to how much weight is on the rego paper .

I have a R34 gtr m-spec and its under 1500 kg ( i made sure of that at the time of rego )

I had a 33gtr that was under 1500 kg as well .

If you want you can get a weighbridge ticket and go back to the rta i'm sure you can get it under 1500 even if you have a v-spec II .

I have been through this with my R33. You have to get an adjustment of vehicle records from a mechanic that does BLUE slips. THis costs $22. I was able to show the mechanic the specification sheet from a workshop manual. My R33 sedan was previoulsly put in at 1570kgs tare weight!

The heviest sedan in the spec sheet was 1410kg so he put it down as that. If he hadn't have accepted the spec sheet you have to go to an authorised RTA weighbridge. This costs about $23-$27.

The mechanic I went to was in the hills area. Hills motorsport gave me his name. I think Milan or something, he was a good guy

Then you take the adjustment of vehicle records to the RTA and they cahange it. I did this just before I regod the car. Saved me about 100 per year

R32 gtr's can and they all should be under 1500 kgs on the rego .

R33's and r34's are all heavier than 1500 but can be registered under 1500 kgs , i can't say in this forum how but if anyone wants to know give me a p.m.

Like benl 1981 said it saves you about $100 every year !!

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
