Hi dudes,

I am mooving to the back to the ACT after living in sydney for 5 years and gotta get my car re registered here. Everywhere i call they ask me what sort of car it is. I say a nissan importand they give me heaps of ohhh, i dont know, ummm mabyee. garbage....

Mycar came in under the 15 year rule and is legally registered in NSW. I just had it inspected a month ago and it passed with no problems but i took it somwhere today and the guy went over the car and just picked on the most trivial stuff. I went on the RTA website and checket what he said and 90% of it was garbage. it comlies to ACT standard he just didnt like me or didnt want to pass the car or something. so i paid my $38 for a list of fails that are nonsense.

I dont really want to get into it. but i just want to know where you guys would go to get your car inspected.

if youcan PM me a place to go to get it inspected i wouldbe very grateful

Cheers guys :)

change a couple of the thigs he pulled you up on, or print what it says on the rta website and go back for a second inspection, its free within 2 weeks. If he still knocks you back, you havent really lost anything and he might pass you

I just had the new "toy" ('89 Nomad van) rego checked to change back to ACT. ACT Brakes @ Mitchell has a actual drive-over pit for rego inspections, and no booking required - just drive up between 8am and 4pm (except between 10:00 and 10:30 I think), and they will inspect your car. My front steering is a little tired, but they didn't consider it worth a fail.

These guys seemed reasonable when the inspected my old Fiat.

Ultimate Tunes

4 Bellona Crt Phillip ACT 2606

ph: (02) 6281 1821

i would trust them to scratch there dic, blew up my rotor after it was tuned, tryed to tell me that it was diff noise, i was like what the f**k (it was pinging it head off)

If you still need somewhere PM me and i can tell you whos passed my skyline, many previous skylines, my mates nissan s13 (which clearly was wayyy to loud) and my brothers vtir civic (slammed)... none of the cars they had a problem with... and i've heard of people failing for obvious reasons (ie my brother) because it didnt have a grill in place, they just said come back with it on and we'll pass you free of charge. So its always good to know you basically have a second chance, oh and btw they didnt care if it was import or not.

I used to have work done at Ultimate Tunes all the time, they never did me wrong.

I do find that funny though, because they seem to have more rotors there than anything else :lol:

They have a bit of a name to hold, so I think they do know what they are doing.

I have never had a problem with anything they have done for me.

deleted due to me having a spat and dont want to offend ppl's companys, what happen with my rotor was a long time ago with that company.

Stupid question;when moving interstate to the A.C.T.I was sure you had to do the official Dickson pits,regardless.Isn't that still the case?In which case,you may not be a happy camper...Would you have much to change back to get it roadworthy?Or is a Engineer's Certificate gonna be required?

    • You'lll likely have to make do with R33 GTR for engine/tranny stuff, and Stagea for the body. I don't know that there's even been an actual diagram seen in the wild.
    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again
