sk's whiteline suspension kit.

[Fishpaste~]

hate to burst your bubble, but i was defected (and still are) for 5mm too low on the rear and 10mm on the front. It states it on the defect form, so they will be checking when i go through. Ive had them pull out the tape in the past as well.

what car and heights were you running at the time (if you dont mind me asking)?

[Bl4cK32]

350 front and 355 rear from memory...32gtst

whatever mate. get off your high horse. im just trying to help someone out, just like i always have

[Bl4cK32]

lol..no high horse. Just replied to what u stated, that regency wont care about 5 or 10mm if u have the 100mm clearance. They will and do check.

[EnricoPalazzo]

That was from my experiences... Doesnt matter anymore, we have gone very far off topic

[Oosh]

More importantly what's the brown-eye height for these anal inspectors? I don't wanna get my ass defected, I use it a lot and would find it hard to live without.

Just to clarify. There are 2 legal (Australian Design Rule) requirements, one is a minimum 100 mm ground clearance, the other is 2/3rds the original suspension travel. Both have to pass to be "legal". So a car that is legal at 365 with a 3" exhaust (ie; at 100 mm ground clearance) may be an illegal 88mm with a 3.5" exhaust.

Regency have a reputation for using their own rules, so best to check exactly what their interpretation of "2/3rds the original suspension travel" is for your particular model. Get it in writing if possible, because Regency also have a reputation for changing their mind.

Bothof those are requirements, and in SA we also have "eyebrow height" requirements to deal with also, as contained in information bulletin 44 for vehicles later than 1970. This falls under the "bump rubber clearance" classification.
