errr? didn't you read that fact that i have had enough first hand experience with police to know what the rules are?

i don't need to research, i know the laws, you just cant backup your claims.

You point to a 10 yo archived version of vic roads web site and i can.

Not all about bad cops, all about revenue and stats.

My station is pretty serious about this operation as we have treffic cars running all next week and I am on some operation Road BLock on Next weekend. Must be Booze Buses and more, I surely will be tasked to give out lots of NOU's, EPA and fines because end of the day its a stats game.

enjoys the jap imports scene! let alone that u are club member!!!!!!!!!! what does that benefit the club???

aint the the god damn truth fkn cops now issue $280 fines with defects cos its a new form of reenue that they hadnt tapped earlier. if they issued fines with every defect the past few years then they would prolly have made millions off us

was that abit clearer mayb :P

also there is nothing wrong with Roxburgh Park, u get idiots in which every suburb u go too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wrong. since if hes allowed to drive turbo, those laws don't affect him. f**k, should have been a lawyer.

License before july 1st 2007, old power to weight laws. turbos/superchargers allowed, v8s banned though. p's for 3 years.

License after july 1st 07, turbos/superchargers banned. however, the new p plate system wasn't inplace for at least 6 months, so old p's just turbos/superchargers banned. p's for 3 years.

New system, turbos/superchargers banned along with stricter p/w restrictions and engine performance mods banned. (however, its debatable what they could considering engine mod). p's for 4 years.

I believe you could drive V8's on the early P plate laws? I did and it was legal, as long as it was under the power to weight ratio.

The 33 gts-t in question would be illegal IMO regardless of any paperwork as the system goes by the factory power and factory weight, not to mention the illegal mods.

The thing I would be worried about though is that any insurance company that knows what it is doing (i.e all of them), would not pay out a claim, or cover you in any circumstance should you have an accident driving a car that your not allowed to drive. Not sure about the compulsary 3rd party either.

edit - But they will obviously insure you and take your money.

    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
