Road worthy etc

[R33Dan]

Guys im at vic at the moment but im commin there in march i have a question how do you go with road worthys and mods up there and do you know if i even need one when transferring rego over. I have a 33gtst with pod, bov, boost control, fmic, exhaust, power fc, afc...new turbo soon hopefully. so im just wondering how the cops are up there with mods and how you go with road worthys cheers dan

well if your gunna live up here and work , you need to get your rego changed within like 3 months i think , but the MVR motor vehicle registery will require you to go over there pits for inspection for rego ... i had no prob's with my car , but others have had to change the odd thing or to , just depends on there mood and who you get . if ya have any prob's when ya get here let me or RBNT know and we can arrange stuff if needed.

Yea most of the guys in DRW aren't to cluey with what mods that can be done or not. But the most usual things like Tyres, ride height, oil leaks, just general stuff.

No laws as such for Atmos BOV and the like

yeh thanx guys, my rides all sweet for tyres, height all the general stuff etc it was just mods i was worried about but sounds easy as compared to down here in vic and hopefully i wont have any troubles wit inspection, but yeh cant wait to get there and not worry bout defects do some cruizen and racin see you guys in march/april

cheers dan

you dont need to go over the pits, you can get a road worthy done at any mechanic, all the mvr need is to check motor no's ect.

[ICE12]

Just an inspection at an authorized Mechanic is needed don't for get to get your licence done at the same time. If you are coming from interstate you have about 3mths to change rego but can check for you as I'm no traffic Nazi. Just remember if it is not standard or engineered it can be defected so if it isn't a plumb back BOV it can be defected etc. But it isn't to bad in the NT but they are thinking about bring the anti hooning law here (it may be here now, been in Groote to long). but remember if you do get stopped it will depend on attitude by you and sometimes the copper. If you want more feed back let me know.

Cheers ICE

[BoyWhoCriedWolf]

Anti hooning laws are in ICE, dont know if anyone has been done yet.

[ICE12]

Wasn't sure as it isn't a real problem on Groote for me.

PS Careful there is a cop scanning this thread :elaugh:

Cheers ICE

[nuffin_werks]

a cop hey ..... maybe i'll just moderate his ass..... ha ha ha not

[ICE12]

It's all good.

Now just trying to work out who it is. :wassup:

Oh it's me, are you scared yet ppl :aroused:

I can't be that bad as I'm into modified cars myself.

We will meet up and then let me know.

We all know that it is easy to get along with the plods - a bit of respect each way goes a long way. There are a lot of coppers into their cars just like us.

Shane , I hope you are going to be at our inaugural (spelsy) SAUNT formation meeting in Feb sometime.

See you in March Dan, it will be coming up to cruise time then too!

CU all,

Ken

I had 2 postings to the NT with the green machine. Right back at the start of the buildup of our presence there and I found the NT police to be the best around. We did a bit with the SOG and it was heaps of fun sharing toys and obstacle courses. Good to see that it probably hasn't changed. Cheers Shane Is big Jim Met**** still with the Coroners office? He was a good mate and lived just a few houses from me.

Geez, sharing toys is something I would be keeping quiet. Dont ask me if I want to go camping either. :wassup:

Were you up for the anti terrorism excercise???

I reckon the NT coppers are better than most you will find down south.

[GTRgeoff]

No, I was lucky enough to get to live there, although I have done the drive up and back 7 times now over the years. The AT stuff was after my time.

I'm not sure what it would be like now with the concentration of military but I'd guess not as good as it was. Hopefully the local Police are still as friendly as ever.
