nj1 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 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.

Duncan Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 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?

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..
