Buying Mod'd 34 From Victoria

What you've got to realise is that modification laws all have a reason behind them, some better thought out than others.

A locked diff is illegal because at low speeds your tyres chirp, and its incredibly difficult to drive the car. A 2 way however enables you to drive at low speeds without an issue. Also a 2 way makes your car more predictable and consistent on acceleration and deceleration which can only help your control of the car. Granted in the wrong hands you can get the wheels to spin, but its not only drifters running 2 ways and thats what alot of people seem to overlook.

Coilovers are legal as long as the springs are still captive at the height setting you have set. If the springs are no longer captive you might as well have 2 steel rods for struts and hence this is probably why you got pinged for it.

Youll find the government realises some people are car enthusiasts and hence the legality of things like halfcages. A full cage is illegal because there is a bar that runs next to your head and seeing as you dont drive with a helmet on the street its possible you could hit your head on it. Carbon Fibre bonnets are illegal because they are unsure on how they work with airbags, cars that are pre 89 ( i think) are legal to have carbon bonnets. Ill think youll find alot of carbon bonnets are illegal because of rear facing vents, which is because if there is an engine fire and your stuck in the car the flames come up on the windscreen.

There is alot of information on the web about legalities of different mods but you have to know what to trust and generally its easier to just ring the pits and ask them.

Sorry for going somewhat offtopic man, but yeah just give the pits a call and tell them your list and they will tell you what you need to do before inspection.
