So a while ago I stumbled across a wikipedia article listing all the nice cars a P-plater could drive. Had at least a hundred, from all different makes. I went to look for it again the other day and cannot find it any where. Don't suppose anyone has a bookmark, or know the exact title to search?

Thanks.

Just use your mind, non turbo ... non supercharged ... turbo and S/c allowed on diesel ... V8 = no except diesel... over 200kw = no. Anything that isnt that is allowed except like 350z's ... some Porshe etc. Little cars like those mini Suzuki Turbos are allowed tho. Most common are like NA Skyliner, Supras and even tho i hate em to the max Commys . I looked for your list and couldnt find ><

I love you.

For some reason I thought it was on the official wikipedia.com website.

I'm still under the old system, I can drive turbocharged cars so long as they remain under the 125kw per ton rule, but I wanted to see all that was available to me.

so p platers over east still can drive the r32 gts t.

Ive never driven a r32 gts t before... are they really that slow stock?

Or is it just becuase of the Japanese and their underestimated power figures?

Anyone know if twin turbo GTO's are legal under the old P plate laws? They're 206kw but 1700kg which places them at around 120kw per ton.

Always loved the car personally, but I've never seen a P plater with one.

If it's under 125kW/tonne, it's legal on P-Platers under old scheme (before 1st July 2007) no matter if it's N/A or Turbo.

Sorry to be asking this again, but I can't find anything on google, and can't be Fed signing up to a Silvia forum.

Anyone know if the SR20DET 180SX is P plate legal? It's right on 125kw per ton. Which I assume means it's really up to the cops if they want to do me on it or not. I've always loved the car, but thought due to it's lighter weight it'd be way over the legal limit.

So, anyone ever had owned a 180SX on their P's, or know anyone who has? For reference, I'd probably be getting a 96-97 type X.

Thanks.

There is talk about a R32 GTS-T that is OK for P Platers but I think if you come under the 'New' P Plater laws, cuz its turbo'd P Platers are not allowed to drive it.

There was a thread about this in the Victoria Section and I asked the question about the R32 GTS-T's.

well if it is too close to call just turn the boost down a touch and make it 124kw/t.

Nope, it's calcuated by offical power and weigh figures from car companies (nissan for this instance).

As for SR20 S13/180sx, it's grey area, there was some debate whether it is legal or not on nissansilvia.com forums, heaps of topics has been covered I believe.

Cheers

    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
    • It's been quite the ordeal but hey, at least you figured it out.
    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow
