The rule in the ACT is they're allowed to be used while parked as long as you have a switch that will only let them work when the engine is off. If you can turn the neons on while the engine is on, its illegal.

Too much farking around for my liking. Besides, the cops would prolly still give you a defect and send you to get a full rego inspection done.. not worth it.

its fine in qld, except u cant have red, blue or yellow. and they cannot pulse, or change colours....

but, the cops will try telling u that they ""dazzle"" other drivers, in your defence, they do sell dazzling neons, which flicker. they doint flicker, bye bye cop

i just finished school, and i swear i probably leant more relevant to lif information in the last 12 minutes then i did in the last 12 yrs :P

im looking at installing those UV blacklights.. u know the purpley colour that makes white things glow? how do you think they would go in a car with a white interior..

(project r32, wont start till june :( )

The reason i ask this is because I got done for having neons fitted underneath my car, they were not on. But apparently it does not matter whether u turn them on or not it is illegal just to have them fitted. I've been told that it is a load of crap and some agree with the copppa. I was wondering if anoyone else actually knows for sure that they are illegal to be fitted?

I emailed RTA technicial division in NSW regarding Neon lights. They official replied that lights are legal and can be fitted to car usually for show purposes. They cannot be used in a public place ( on the road).

I also spoke to them over the phone. I jockingly said "How about Maca's "or a similiar off road venue. They couldn't see any problem.

The main thing is that in NSW they can't fail you on rego checks if fitted.

The RTA bloke suggested I keep copy of email if a dispute arises when rego check at local authorised workshop.

i was told be a cop, that in QLD itz illegal for them 2 be on while ur driving cuz itz distracting to other drivers or sum bs, but u can have them on while ur not movin or sumfin...it was confusing the way he said it. at the shops here they have signs saying for show only or sumfin like that

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
