RTA where do you start? First was to get a phone number for their engineering dept Homebush. It is a very well kept secret. Once you have this phone number the one and only guy that does the approval is normally there a couple of days a week only. You pick which days.
If your lucky and you do get to speek with him he will tell you that he has a pile of approvals to do and he will get to it asap. I rang every week until he finally approved it and was sending it to the VIN dept at Botany. Hint: turn off caller ID on your phone.
This is where the most time was lost. They must have a policy that no one is to speek with each other. O another secret phone number. One person was on hoildays so the approval was sent back to the Engineering dept where it was put back on the pile at the bottom.
Once located again it was sent back to the Vin dept once the guy had returned from holidays.
I hope for future approvals for cobra owners it is a lot shorter. In that time I near put 300 unregistered km on the clock. The old "use it or lose it" motto.
I am one happy chappy now though.

Troy,
Thanks for the information. I am far wiser now. What's the chances of you posting those secret phone numbers for RTA Engineering and Vin No. issue?
Baz.
