AnjoO - It all depends on the cop who pulls you over, i had the head traffic cop for the southwest victoria region say that as long as they aren't red at the front, or white at the back, flashing or something else, they're fine. Another said that they're fine, just not whilst driving, another said no altogether. It's really a pot luck thing.

And drift_limo, we were discussing the legality of LED's, not the sexuality of electrical goods.

neons in vic are allowed.

any form of lighting (wiper lights, neos, underbar lights etc) most NOT dazzle another driver, as stated by the ADR documents.

so you can have undercar neos, but they musn't flash and the officer must not deem them to dazzle other drivers, or cause a distraction, ie: pulsing colours

I just had a quick skim read of the Vicroads VSI on lighting and lamps.

It appears as if you can have neons, but the ADRs surrounding what colours are permitted where etc are well beyond what I'm going to get into unless I'm doing it myself (which I'm not).

If you want to be way too fast and a little furious, RTFM yourself.

Firstly. allow me to say, that moderators are not your personal secretaries.

Please post threads in the appropriate section of the forum.

This is a local question, and as such should be posted in your state section (where it has now been moved to)

No soup for you, this is incorrect.

From memory (so don't scream at me if it's wrong, I got bored with answering this question after about the 47th time it was asked) ...

You can't have red or blue because it emulates/falsely misrepresents the colours used by emergency services.

No white lights are to be visible from the rear of the vehicle (other than reverse lights)

No red lights are to be visible at the front of the vehicle

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
