    Default New to Melbourne and need help

    Since moving from Sydney 6 months ago im trying to get a road worthy for my ae86 ... everyone i have been to so far just look at the car and since its old say cant help... Does anyone know of a place that can give me RWC i dont care what it costs.

    Car info
    levin coupe (very clean)
    stock engine with pod (sourced stock airbox)
    stock interior exept the steering wheel and bucket seat (sourced jdm drivers seat)
    coilovers
    adjustable trailing arms
    exhaust though not very loud
    watanabe rims with r888's (these rim are about 2mm passed the gaurds)
    diff mods are internal and not seen

    Anyones suggestions where i can go and what i need to do would be appreciated

    Cheers
    Andrew

    You will need stock wheels, and technically coilovers and adjustable suspension arms need to engineered so just put the stock stuff in for a roadworthy. As long as your diff mods aren't welded centre you'll be fine.

    I got my rwc at dynamotive in Blackburn, passed easily and was easy to deal with.

    Pretty sure I do. Will check the condition of the tyres tomorrow. You would have to pick them up from Maidstone though.

    26 Molan Street, Ringwood vic place called 'Multitech Auto Care'. I got mine done there and he was pretty casual. Had a few ae86s in the shop too. this was in 2012.
    It's not somewhere I would genuinely recommend for a quality RWC, but if its just to transfer etc then he does alright

    Just checked my stockies and the tyres aren't the best. Tread is ok but they have cracks in the grooves between the tread. Your still welcome to try though.

    Hit me up if you need to borrow some wheels.

    This doesn't sound like it's going to be your daily, have you considered club rego?
