Compliance/modification Plate Codes

[so_tred]

EDIT: I searched a little more and found the info I was looking for

Does anyone know what the codes stand for on the compliance/modification plates?

My friend has a Silvia that is in supposedly stock form (non turbo CA) with the codes L01, LK3 & LK6 on the plates. I assume it's things like ADR approved seatbelts & side intrusion bars that were fitted. But I'm not 100% sure.

[prego]

are there any modifications that dont require a mod plate

like so if pistons were shot and i needed new ones what if they happened to be N/A pistons for higher compresion?

[neil_se]

Some are considered "accessories" therefore don't need mod plating. Do what you want with the internals, its not like they can check.

[prego]

hehehehe i got ideas

[OutZero]

hey, if i had a ute, with a bench seat, and i wanted to converted it to 2 bucket seats, what mod plate code would i have to use? would i need one for the seat belt and the seat or does the one code cover both of them?

Thanks
