Roll Cage modplate

[nj1]

I have an R32 gtst that had a modplate in 2012 with a 6 point bolt in roll cage.

 

The car was out of rego for a year but now I have put it back on the street, is the 6 point cage mod plate still applicable noting now only 4 point cages are allowed?

 

If I take the front hoop out then it's not complying with the modplate from 5+ years ago?

 

Car has only ever been registered and mod plated in Qld.

Sorry I'm not familiar with QLD rules, but I understood in NSW a full (6 point) cage is a no go, plate or not. Only half cage (4 point) can pass due to driver head issues.

You might need to check with a local engineer, is there a name on the papers?

It was plated in dec 2012 when 6 point cages were allowed in Qld. The rule changed in April 2013 allowing only 4 point.

So it was modplated as a 6 point before the rule changed.

The engineer who just modplated my car to a 2 seater said that it was probably plated as a 6 point and removing the front hoop would make it non compliant against the original modplate.

The question remains over legalities when the original rules change..
