you mean that your rwc wanted solid alloy bushes for it to be signed off? lol

next thing it'll be a requirement to have rose jointed adjustable suspension

[Sunkist]

Just came back from getting a repo car re roadied.

He was saying something about Vic roads wanting to bring in yearly roadworthys for every rego renewal? Anyone heard about it?

[Dan_J]

QLD has said rule

isnt that something that NSW is gonna go through soon?

hope not , with rwc getting tighter will not be fun

[BeEnAr]

[xALmoN]

They have been trying to do it for years but the government dont want to for some reason.

I believe nsw has had it for over a decade.

[xALmoN]

all nsw checks are brakes, lights, and minor things. nothing like our rwc places, where its up to the mechanic that does it.

and in qld, i believe its 50$ for a rwc check.

[Borci88]

nope. it wont.

Does depend where you go though

Machined alloy is more likely to crack and flog out than 15 year old rubber dontchyerknow.

now i thought i knew the answer to the question although i figure i'd ask just for the sake of it.

would it be legal to run an air box ( bigger) from another make of car and it not to be considered as an intake mod?

Its been changed from factory which means its a modification, thats assuming that the cop looking at it knows exactly what your airbox should look like and given the amount of these cars running pods theres a chance they dont.

it is a mod...

but as worp3d has mentioned, there is a chance the cops wont notice, and that chance though high, is not 100%. that said, people still chance it with pod + fmic, so you are very very much safer than those people.

[Dan_J]

well yes was thinking that, least its confirmed now

[xALmoN]

still. do it anyway.

[Dan_J]

already running a r33 airbox, although at the wreckers noticed how much bigger the v6 falcon even the older efi camrys compared to the rb filter panel
