I've got rims I can reverse to get a silly amount of dish like that, and I think i can do it legally because my car is exempt from ADR's, but to fit wheels with that much negative offset I'd need to chop off part of my guards under a set of fibreglass flares wouldnt I?

How/why is ur car exepmt from ADR's Adam???

Some tough R31's in that lot, pity bout the SR under the bonnet of one of them though :throwup:

i've always had a thing for the red one at the top..

and the only way a car can be exempt from ADR's is when its unregistered and does not touch any road....

just sold my deep dish watanabes to a mate with a r31 they look pretty sweet, at least the sr20 powered one carries the name "R31house" you have to take that into consideration....

I've got a letter stating that my car is exempt from ADR's :cheers: (apart from seat belts and a few other minor things)

It has to adhere to the Road Traffic Act and the Road Traffic Regulations.

Road Traffic Act says only that a car must be 'safe' which comes down to no obvious mechanical defects (ie broken shit) and that it must adhere to the Road Traffic Regulations.

Road Traffic Regulations say minimum 100mm clearance, under 90db, 1.5mm tyre tread, and that ADR's must be adhered to. BUT it also says that if a vehicle is exempt ADR's under any other statute that is applicable in this jurisdiction (which my car is) then they are exempt from that section.

Ie I'm soooo keeping this car now :)

They shouldnt have given a law student that letter hehe

I wouldnt want bigger diameter rims anyway, 16 is as big as I will ever need

I've got that lettter as well Adam, it doesn't mena SHIT my friend!! The only thing going for us, is that they don't have the spec's on the cars (last time i got pulled over that was nearly 2 years ago though so who knows)

I reckon it does if you know what you're talking about when you get pulled. All that they can do is say "It doesnt look safe". This is at their discretion but I think it would be easier to get a defect cleared and unless they can come up with something good, I'm going to keep looking for 9 or 10 inch wide rims

I'm going to get some bigass Flinders Law Students Society stickers made up and I'll keep some text books in the back and I'm not going to get done over for having a pod or a big exhaust (unless its over 90db..... meh I'm going to get the exhaust redone and lose the fart can anyway) or anything

      Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...

      It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
