kabab i think is correct, if you have registered as a 4 seater then you have to have 4 seats, but when registering again u must specify that its a 2 seater.......if thats even possible for an import im not sure.

Easy, you can fit a full set of slicks in the back when you take the seat out. Can't even fit 1 rim in the boot.....

i can only comment about the ACT .... my brother happens to be a vehicle inspector .. fortunately not one of your regular rego nazis :thumbsup: anyhow, we were talking cars a bit back and a friend asked just that question ... basically you can take the back seat out of any (import or not) as long as you remove all seat belts and sign some doco (stat dec methinx) which means your car now only handles 2 people

Is that still going to be the case this year with SEVS and things in general ( like compliancing) just getting tougher? I was reading something 2 mths ago and it was talking about having to get your car re-complied after each mod to say that it's "safe" for road use in Aus. :confused:

I really don't know what impact SEVS will have ... I'm not too sure anyone really does ... my understanding of SEVS is that it is the most blatant attempt market protection I have seen for ages and is a complete crock of shite ... they have nothing to do with safety, just money .... I'm not bitter, I promise

yes i think your about right aleks.. there tryin to protect jobs that are in makin cars here rather then the car makers actually making cars we like at a nice price that we prefer over imports...

46n2, basically you car in new system has to be stock to import, if its not, aftermarket things have to be replaced with stock items, and compliancer have to provide evedence they destroyed aftermarket itesm...

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
