P Plate Laws Nsw

[Micah.]

To my understanding 130kw per tonne is the law. Doesn't matter if turbo or n/a.

Making the S15 Autech the best p/w ratio followed by Supra SZ and then the R33 GTS.

My friend said he has a turbo s15 aus spec. which I assume is over p/w and illegal.
I currently have r33 but I'm looking to buy the s15 autech because it's newer and cleaner. I'm on my L's atm so the new laws apply to me. (not allowed a s2k).

Cheers. (sorry if this topic has been posted before, I couldn't find specific to nsw on these cars)

Lovely of you to start a thread and tell us about you and your 16 y.o mates.

Any questions you'd like to ask?

[Micah.]

I just want confirmation on which cars are legal.

[vetter2769]

Hopefully someone can answer that for you, but incase they cannot, is there a website you can check?

Or perhaps you could ask at the RTA?

S15 200sx are legal in nsw now

[Micah.]

Okay so I found a website that is exactly what I was looking for.
Under new laws of August 2014 in NSW

This just saved me buying a n/a s15 when I can buy a turbo s15 Spec R.

Even the Spec R 200SX is legal. I'm guessing that's the best P plater car.

Legal ; S15 200SX Spec R (Turbo), s15 200sx Spec S (Turbo), S S15 Autech (N/a), R33 GTS, Supra SZ

Banned; S2000, R33 GTST, WRX, Supra RZ

If anyone want to add to this list go ahead!

200sx s14 turbo is also legal.

The best P plate car is not the one with the most power, so that you can introduce the rear of it to every gutter and front yard of every home in your street; as you live out your initial D fantasies, with your lowest common denominator skillset.

The best P plate car is the one that allows you to get off your P's with your license intact, you and your mates all still alive, and with the bare minimum of accidents due to aforementioned lack of skills.

Get something cheap, light, moderately powered and fun to drive, then spend some money actually LEARNING how to drive properly on track, so that you can make the most of a decent car; once you have matured a little and learned how to properly assess and manage risk, and the pressure of your peers.

You don't want the first mistake you make (and I promise, you will), to be your last.

Not sure what's so exciting about a bone stock(engine wise) S15 to be honest but that's me.

Not to mention cops know to look for mods on P plate turbo cars, they aren't stupid, and you'll get in lots of trouble

I agree with the above I had an impreza on my p's and then a ke70 for my final year of my p's and then on my opens I bought my skyline. When you first get your license you do stupid things every one does.

just drive a p-plate legal v6, like the aurion 122 odd kw/kg or something
