heard some crazy rumours about how the power to weight ratio law will no longer apply and it will stricly be no turbos or v8s of anysort at all.

i highly doubt this but started to worry a bit when more then a few mates told me the same.

does anyone know a up to date source i can check the current or future laws of high powered vehicles?

i know i might sound stupid but i was under the impression the existing laws are power to weight, which lets u drive cars like 32 gtst's. but under this NEW law im hearing about not even taht is allowed.

You can still post new threads?

:sorcerer:

maybe i'm wrong, but i was under the impression, people with existing license's were excused from these new laws, only people who get there license after the start date had to apply to these new laws.

people with existing licenses will be exempted from the new laws, however if you are breaking the current law (high powered vehicle) you will be also breaking the new law which may have worse penalties..

Hmmm there is different rules because after july you will get GREEN P's... so ud have to display a green P's and wont be able to drive after 10pm or whatnot. but after a year then u get ur normal p's.... i heard...

they have been trying to bring that in for as long as i can remember, its not gonna happen cause its very unpractical. What happens if a P plater works night shifts or in the early hours of the morning?

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
