Also for those that haven't heard the latest, there is a meeting planned for engineering signatories with the RTA (roads and traffic authority) next week.

There are around 70 engineers going to this meeting to discuss the proposed legislation on vehicle modifications, including the suspension regulations.

Basically they will be raising a lot of points about how silly some of the new proposed laws will be and try to explain why they are rubbish. Labor is backing the proposed laws, and the Liberals are against. Gives you something to think about voting time too...

Also they propose to raise the registration costs on older vehicles, to a point that the majority can't afford it, to get them off the road. That's under the Labor party.

Various things such as, vehicle owners, enthusiasts, the automotive aftermarket and workshops all come into play here as to whether we get to do what we enjoy and also the whole industry keeps going, or if we all end up driving white goods, with no soul, and not allowed to change anything.

That about sums it up, and that's just the start. If you guys have anything to add, please do!

Cheers

Why does a road car need to be raised / lowered more than 5cm anyway? Track specials, I can understand, but anything that is road registered doesn't need to. If you're serious enough to have a car capable of winning championshios, then it will have a shedload of other illegal mods anyway, and most likely wouldn't be much fun on the roads.

Apart from possibly WRC cars, I haven't ever seen a rally car raised anywhere near 5cm, so that's no excuse (thinking about competition vehicles that *need* to be registered).

Maybe hardcore offroaders need the extra lift, and I'm not going to argue against that. Everyone else, OTOH, well I agree that 5cm is more than enough for a road car. Maybe it will get some of these dickhead slammed civics riding on 20" chromies off our roads.

Can't always have your cake and eat it too.

      Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
