if u are talking about a day permit, u can get the from the dept of transport, which allows you to drive the car where ever between the hours in which the permit starts and ends.

if u arent driving very far, then it should be ok but if u are planning on constantly driving round the more chances of u getting picked on i guess. like i drove my car from maroochydore to caloundra this morning with no exhuast on it, so it oculd get fiuxed, but if i kept driving round with no exhuast then i woulda got picked up for sure. by the way RB with no exhuast = spooling loudly.... :mad:

85URK you make it sound too easy!

Firstly you have to organise third party insurance.

Then on the appliction form it states-

If the vehicle does not comply with the transport operations (Road Use Management - Vehicle standards and Safety) Regulation 1999 a Police Permit must be obtained

Haha that would have been good to see the 33 screaming off it's tits :mad:

I have actually done this my self twice.... Third party insurance... which one (compulsary or the non-compulsary one)? as long as you dont plan to run into someone you should be safe (ie. drive like a slow grandma, be extra careful and dont do stupid things). If your only going to a very short distance, you should be fine as long as you get the one day permit thing.

Yeah what ever insurance is the cheapest.

So did you not have to apply for a police permit? What mods did your car have? Was it inspected?

I'll probably look at getting a permit to last around a week.. Whats the go with trade plates? Can they be used to get a vehicle from where it's stored to a workshop?

Drift limo if your after a Day Permit, you'll need as you said a above, a Police one. Transport won’t give them out on non-complied cars in Queensland.

Obviously you get these ones from the Police station.. I've seen your car they will tell you to tow it, lol.

I've used trade plates on non complied cars to get them around, as I said above transport won't issue pass's on imports with no compliance/ADR plates.

They inspected my bog stock n/a R32 4 door when I went in to get a day pass too, which had all been ADR'd.

relistically i think almost evey mod to my car is a defect. you'd be surprised what's illegal. every mod should really have a mod plate & emissions shouldn't be harmed in any way. Just dont do anything to stand out where u know there is a police presence.

Haha there goes that idea then. See I'm making an effort to abide by the rules, they just make it too hard sometimes..

Hopefully who ever does the tune are lax with their trade plates.

Didnt get a police permit, but I got a day permit from DOT for it... My cars are always standard (sif list all the mods out on the internet).... It was inspected and complied tho (sorry I thought you car is already complied).

Using a trade plate Nismo_Boy already answered it. :P

    • Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.         
    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃
    • You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.
