P Plate 125Kw/ton Exemption

[kawasakirider]

Hey everyone, I know this has been done to death and will probably attract a bunch of awesome replies that are in no way relevant to my question, but I'm gunna ask it anyway.

A good mate of mine has just put down a deposit on a Type M 32 GTS-T and I'll be driving it home for him tomorrow. As a lot of you may know, the laws have changed in QLD recently. They now state that a p plater may drive a turbo vehicle if falls under 125kw/ton.

What he wants to know is, what does he have to supply to qld transport to get the exemption? There was a bloke selling his 180sx on here who had an exemption due to the new laws, so if you're reading this and wouldn't mind chiming in, we'd be appreciative.

There are no legitimate stats from Nissan that I can find indicating power to weight, so I'm assuming it may be a matter of weighing the car and giving that info, plus legitimate info on the 20det's power output to qld transport.

If someone with experience regarding this could lend a hand that would be sweet.

If not, we'll just remove the turbo or he can drive it without an exemption, because insurance and the law aren't really important (just kidding).

Cheers

Excuse me? I believe this very forum itself is built around on asian cars and in which 99% of all cars in this forum has been driven by an asian once

Soon one day, it will become inevitable that on either side of this emoticon, it will be an asian

Aparently you can go into QLD transport and get one with no legitamate "reason". Just a matter of filling out forms and proving your car falls under the legal limits. I reckon if you google "Type M 32 GTS-T power to weight ratio" something will come up.

I read somewhere it was 124kw/ton so might be right you might have to do more research tho

[nomnomv8]

Well..

R32 GTS-T Type-M - 1280kg @ 158kw

Using simple maths you can work out that it falls just under the 125kw/ton law by a kw and a half so your all good

Yes Type M - done to death, it's under the power 125kw/tonne

Use the search.
