Legality of aftermarket wings on skylines


Recommended Posts

hahahahahaha sweet rob!

i am 99% sure stealth wings are not legal as they remove the 3rd high mount brake light. As long as there exists a 3rd brake light and the wing doesn't protrude above or outside the width of the bodywork, then it should be ok.

as above..i think the main concern about police is the 3rd high mount brake light..which i rekon is a good reason sometimes..but oh well some people are abit blind and it does help in some situations...but getting a defect or a file is just shit. It should be just a warning..

16. PROTRUSIONS

A modification to a vehicle must not result in:

o Any bumper bar which does not have its ends turned towards the body of the vehicle to a sufficient extent to avoid any risk of hooking or grazing any person;

so this means truck bull bars are illegal??

Only if they kill people... :)

Thing is I think there may be laws on it, but they don't often seem to be enforced. If its an obvious danger or nice and sharp, then they can definitely defect you for it. Stupid T-wings I think are the main culprut for that - I have heard of ppl getting done for them (anyway, they're gay, so mb that is all fair :) )

No, because most truck bull bars are not 'modifications', they come out of the factory with them. :)

    • Oh, there's also the gearbox crossmember which will probably be different between the small box and the big box, and the wiring loom will probably need to be modified, because the plugs for the switches etc, will probably be different. And I think the speedo on the small box R34s is from somwhere stupid, like the diff, possibly, so you'd need to work out what needs to be done about that (assuming it is different). I think the thing you need to realise is that the front end of that yoke is a large hollow tube with splines on the inside that mates with the splines on the box's output shaft. It is a dedicated thing - not available "aftermarket". They were made to suit that box, by the car's OEM.
    • You need to buy a Saab Matt, ours had a button that turned all the dash lights off. Any decent aftermarket dash has sufficient brightness control and a headlight input for day/night settings. None of which probably helps OP
    • Yeah thanks...i thought it would be alot more i dont know 😄 I saw some videos on converting push/pull and it seems you need to "drill" the hole for slave(master) cylinder and buy some converter kit. On that front yoke clip i did not even know that is a thing and i need to source that(custom shops do not do that?) But anyway thank you for the info
    • Not the headlight. It's the DRL that serves double duty as white and amber. Would be the easiest way to make it happen, if fitting a BCM was in any way an easy thing. Otherwise you'd do it with some relay logic and/or maybe some diodes.
    • Would require a very smart body control module which these cars are about 20 years to old to have
