Legal O Not?

[Haysey]

i got defected for having no back seats in the car, i told them it was because i had 8 wheels in there the day before from a drift day

they said put the seats back in and the defect will go away....

pitty about the rest of the list..

^ Totally agree with the above.. Illegal unless registered as 2 seater..

Prevents fully sick drifters driving around with stripped out cars.

Huh? Fully sick drifters... isnt that an oxy-moron?

removing rear seats gives me alot more room for tyres its not just about making it lighter

You're better off eating a lighter breakfast than removing the seat.. It only weighs a kilo or two anyway. Only way to fit a set of semi's or drift tyres is to remove it though

Wasnt taking a hit at you soz Brett.. Just saying the guys who rock up at krispys stripped out..

Not actual people who drift who have reasons, including track junkies...

I have fubared my backseat from having the semi's and rims in there - the cushin's have been flattened, some parts ripped and its dirty back there so thats why I get mine out

[-FIGJAM-]

thanks for the info guys, will be putting my seats in 2nyt at around 11pm when i get home haha. Hopefully i dont get done tonight then... *knocks on wood*

interesting read, but if u did register it as a 2 seater how much would it cost, or is it more cost effective to do it around rego time? whats the exact process and prices involved? if someone can list this it would be awesome

Basically all you need to do is remove the rear seats and the rear seat belts. Then go to a mechanic and get a blue slip to change from 4/5 seater to 2 seater (around $90) from memory. Then off to the rta to lodge it with them and thats it.

oh cool, so while doing the blue slip would they check anything else on the car? LOL or just the back seat issue

Its fine man.. I didnt even see it like that

I dont think its that simple, im pretty sure you need to either weld up the holes from the seat belts or put bolts in them and then take it to an engineer, blue slip guys cant engineer things, they read what the car has been engineered for and then say yes the car is like that, so you'd need to carry out the work on the car, get an engineers cert for it, then take it with the engineers cert to get a blue slip place then that place would pass you on the inspection as a two seater car then you take it to the rta and re register it as a two seater

Whilst I havent done it myself plenty of my mates just removed the seats/seat belts and got the blue slip and that was it
