1st take neons off

2nd work out the bov issue

4th what the fk for ur rear parcel shelf????

[Flash89]

where my 6*9 are they said that the steel part of it has been cut out, i check it out looked stardard to me.

[Kaido_RR]

unlucky dude

2 options take off the stuff (swap bov for stock) then go over the pits.

or just go over the pits and see what they say, if you can see your neon tubes they should be legal

cheers michael

[Flash89]

got told that i can disconnect my bov. neons are red by the way.

[Kaido_RR]

is your bov atmopsher venting? (what brand is it)

hmm, im pretty sure u can get away with the neons

[Flash89]

yes it is but i dont know what BOV it is bought yhe car with it.

[JUNR34]

Unlucky mate, did you get the standard BOV when you purchase the car ? If so just fit that one on, cause all aftermarket BOV that vents into the atmosphere are illegal. I think you can get permits for the neons now days, correct me if im wrong. And yeah get yourself some decent rubbers dont want to be power drifting on a wet day all over the road haha.

Neons are legal, provided you only see the glow/hue of them, if you can see the light source itself when they are on, you need to fix that up..

bov, provided its not too loud should pass

tyres are tyres, if they are legal go over the pits with them

as for the parcel shelf, provided there has been no steel cut out of it, should be fine, if it has had steel cut out, its a 10k fine for wheoever did it if its a shop, and i think you may be liable for a fine if it was you..

easiest thing to do is run it over the pits and see what they say, 90% of stickers are just time wasters

[Chi100188]

mmm bad luck dude hahah i still gotta take me through to the pits ! ^_^ but neons should be ok these days....mmm cops on the roll on giving yellow stickers hahahh

[342Four]

yep neons are legal unless u can see the tube

then there a nono

[Flash89]

how much yous think for a decent set of new tyres

[Sneeza]

Why dont you ring some tyre places and find out?

[Wildcat]

I thought that RED neons where illegal????

Cops must be on the hunt for cars to yellow sticker saw two this morning near home getting yellows!!!

[Flash89]

hey i just notice on my sticker that they crossed out the defect and put down compliance. so now it is a compliance notice. any idea what that is??

[michael87]

ahh... unlucky dude,

I had neon’s on my old car they were blue, got over the pits no worries and got permits. Just make sure there secured properly, tubes aren’t visible, are on a separate switch which has an inline fuse on it.

Not sure about BOVs i think there legal if there not too loud or vent into the atmosphere.

Good Luck at the pits, hope all goes well.

I agree with Wildcat i thought that red neons were not legal...

Not 100% sure on that though.

ATMO BOV's are definitely not legal. Chuck the stocker back on, if you do not have it chuck a post up. One of the fine folk on the forums will lend you one.

[Flash89]

well i just bought this car off a dealer like 2 weeks ago and what he did to get it over the pits is just disconected the BOV and the tires also past. cops didnt get me for my pod wonder why. also i took out the child restrainers and put 6*9 in so i guess i just put the child restrainers in. or yous think i will pass with the 6*9s in the back shelve??

the reason they didnt do you for pod is because pod filters are legal nopermit is required refer ei-107a fro dpi

EI-107A

Vehicle Safety Branch Examiner’s Instruction

Vehicle Intake and Exhaust Systems

Pre ADR 27C Vehicles

There is evidence to suggest that many ‘hang-on’ emission control devices for these vehicles

are no longer available from original equipment manufacturers and/or spare parts suppliers.

This applies to vehicles manufactured prior to 31 January 1986.

Taking into consideration the non-availability of emission control components, examiners do

not need to insist on original equipment emission control systems being intact.

Consequently vehicle examiners do not need to issue a modification permit for exhaust

extractors.

It is also unnecessary to issue a modification permit for non-genuine air filters providing

induction noise is not excessive. These include cone or pod type filters.

Not withstanding the above, vehicles must continue to comply with the Road Traffic (Vehicle

Standards) Rules 2002 with respect to the emission of smoke.

Post ADR 37 Vehicles

Vehicles manufactured from 1 February 1986 must continue to comply with the applicable

design rule for the year of manufacture (Australian Design Rule 37/00, 37/01, 79/00 or

79/01).

Catalytic converters and other emission control devices must be retained and functioning

correctly. However where exhaust extractors are fitted a modification permit is not required.

It is also unnecessary to issue a modification permit for non-genuine air filters providing

induction noise is not excessive and that all engine management sensors are fitted and

operating. These include cone or pod type filters.

Yeah I have read that red and blue neons were illegal as those colours are reserved for emergency vehicles (think there was a thread previously about it).
