You need to get the car blue slipped, you can't just get the registration transferred.

De register the car in Vic.... get a permit to drive the car into NSW from Vic roads, pink slip it in NSW and register it.

Make sure you have all the details of the previous owner. And by all I mean ALL, including an invoice for the sale for the vehicle stating vin/chassis number, engine number, colour, old rego number etc!

Good Luck!
