Stickered!

[Ehgriez]

Ryan I think its meant to be 100mm from a solid part of the car, however cops dont know this.

[Douse]

Fairly certain that they are 8.5's at the back

Oh well, If it get done ill whack some stockies on to take it over the pits.....and take off everything else....

[SKYRYAN]

I haven't seen or heard of a cop measure from the body kits either

[Douse]

I was always told it was 100mm from any part of the car. So you couldn't have a bumper lower then 100mm even if the rest of your car is ok...

[Ehgriez]

Ill try confirm sometime this week. Know an inspector.

Rim width must not exceed the maximum rim width specified by the manufacturer by more than 25mm (1") (for passenger vehicles manufactured after 1st January 1973, the manufacturers rim width shall be taken as that specified on the tyre placard).

In any event, rim width shall not exceed 177.8 mm (7") unless specified by the manufacturer as standard equipment for the vehicle in question. No increase in rim width is permitted for vehicles fitted with original equipment rims in excess of 177.8 mm (7") width.

The tyre to rim fitment must be in accordance with the Tyre and Rim Association Manual.

All wheels must be the same size, profile and bolt pattern.

Thats probabbly everything that applies Douse.

[Douse]

Sweet, thats pretty much everything I need to know

I shall invest in a pair of Stockies it think

[bubba]

1" wider either way (overall track), so if you juggle the offset and width, you fit fit much wider aslong as it doesn't scrub on the inside.

[triston]

i think that they should make a website or something stating how low you can go and what you can have permits for in your car or what you can put etc etc... my bad if they have this already

incorrect, that's the old ruling, its since been replaced/updated.

read the 'National Code of Practice' for the current ruling.

i think that they should make a website or something stating how low you can go and what you can have permits for in your car or what you can put etc etc... my bad if they have this already

they do. its called the 'National Code of Practice', and covers everything to do with vehicle modifications.

google it and you shall find everything you need to know.

wow.. when did that come into affect?

it came and went.

[syfon]

We even still have that in our "vehicle handbooks" (which has a section for vehicle modifications, so the 'old ruling' must still be correct in WA.

However, i don't really give two peanuts, so i'll just get over the pits on wednesday and then back to the way it was before minus the screamer lol

[Char]

cant u just go to an exhaust place n ask them to heat up & bend ur zorst so it molds better to the underside?

i've heard/considered this myself, can anyone confirm?

[syfon]

Nah I CBF doing that, i have coilovers, much easier

[ecentrix]

I just got a yellow sticker after seperating from the ddd cruise.

For : my blue parking lights at the front.

I wouldnt have been pulled if my fog lights didnt accidently come on though

So i am epicly annoyed that i have to go to the pits and make the efforttttt

/rant

[syfon]

I failed the pits on Wednesday for the tread on the rear tyres not being even due to camber wear (however, the rear tyres are not down to the inside markers yet, and the minimum tread depth level is 1.5mm, my rears have about 5mm left on them >.<), my blow-off valve being too noisy but its the stock BOV o.O, and my brake light in the spoiler not working ><

Oh well, at least i know they will only check these things when i go back over the pits

[ecentrix]

WTF

Also do they need 3 reasons to yellow you?

Only reason was lighting : To conform to VSRS

And how do i go about organising to go over the pits.

this ruling went out about 3 years ago

ruling is now 1.25

ie:: r32 gtr stock runs 16 x 8 equates to 16x1.25 = 20 //// 8x1.25 = 10

therefore a r32 gtr can legally now run 20x10 rims

this was explained to me by Reno the head guy at welshpool pits when i got my gtr registered with 17x9's on it
