when it was complied it should have been weighed. that's what they put down as the weight for rego. that's unfortunate for you as being over 1500kgs means you are paying more rego to the tune of about $100 per year.

Beer baron, thats why i got mine under 1500 kg (A 34 gtr ) , all 33 gts's are well bellow 1500 , around 1380 kg .

You can go to a public weigh bridge get aticket and take it to RTA so they can correct it .

Hey mate. I had the exact same problem with my R33 sedan - it said 1570kg on the papers.

What I had to do was go to a workshop who does blue slips and get an adjustment of vehicle records form ($22). The bloke I went to accepted an extract from the workshop manual that quoted the weight. He put the highest weight of the quoted sedans. 1420kg even though mine may not have had all the features but it brough it down to the lower bracket and I was happy.

If your blue slip guy doesnt accept that you will need a weighbridge ticket (about $30) aswell.

yup, same here. I have my GTR down as 1420. They tried to tell me the standard weight was 1520 and that 1420 was for a non-turbo GTS. I just said, look at my blue slip. 1420. done and dusted :P

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
