hey im not sure if this is in the right section, but here goes.

i was working recently for a engineering company, and one of the guys i worked with informed me that roll cages are no longer alowed on the street. This worries me because i am currently building a new car, WITH A ROLL CAGE, and if i cant get it engineered im guna be screwed.

Anyone out there know the truth about roll cages and engineers reports/blue slips???

this info is required for nsw obviously... Thanks in advance

I understood that cages have never (at least in the last few years) been allowed.

Half cages (hoop behind the driver and legs to the rear wheel wells) are OK, but anything that the driver or passenger's head can impact is not legal.

I have a full cage in my acr with rego, but it has rally rego which has different rules to regular rego.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
