It says on the QLD transport site that high-powered and performance vehicles include those with:

well my R34 25GT has no more than 8 cylinders, and it is not turbo-charged, I'm just not so sure about the third and fourth points, does my vehicle meet those requirements? Does anyone know?

Hey mate,

Your engine is not a rotary (RX7 is rotary, yours is an inline 6 i think), and manufacturers specifications are flywheel kw, which means your car would have to be 230-250kw at the wheels STOCK to be breaking this rule.

I think you should be ok mate!

Good luck

Your car doesnt have a modification that requires approval unless the engine has been changed or converted to manual or anything along those lines

Your car also isnt a rotary

Your car would not produce more than 200kw at the wheels and i doubt it would even do it at the flywheel

To add to this thread my mate has a non-turbo silvia with a RB20 that was converted to manual now i realise i may have answered my question but just wondering if anyone has had an experience with this and what the cops have done about it?

if ur car was ineligable then they wouldnt let you register it anyways.. so i wouldnt worry if ur not sure.. unless you are doing mods u shouldnt be :D:banana:

and yes no rotary .. its an inline 6

well because I just bought it, and its not registered under my name, so if I can't drive it legally, I'd be like HOLY CRAP!!!

If you brought the car and are transfering the rego you have 30 days to do it before the cops can break your ballz about it. If you are waiting for the rego to expire you are better off cashing in the plates or getting the previous owner to and re-registering it in your name asap. Hope this was helpful.

200kW @ engine doesn't mean 230-250kW @ wheels. Find me a driveline that makes power and I'll buy it :starwars: 200kW at the flywheel would be probably closer to 140-150rwkw.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.  
    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
