G'day,

Just got a canary on the highway for ride height. Problem is they majored me so I need a roady. Anyone know someone who will give me a roady based on ride height without looking at the turbo? Please pm me. I have 7 days to have it cleared and am in s.e suburbs but will travel if needed.

Have you read the threads about the new rwc requirements in vic? The tester has to take various pics of the car as directed by vicroads, so there is probably a strong the tester will only pass a legit car.
Good luck

from my understanding, the RWC do NOT take a photo of the engine bay?

CORRECT! :thumbsup:

the min requirement is 4 photos, more can be taken but its not really that nesseccary or required

the photos are only:
one of the vehicle with the number plate visible to prove the vehicle is actually in the testers premises/workshop,
one of the compliance plate showing the VIN number,
one of the odometer showing the km's,
and one of the vehicle up in the air showing all 4 wheels off

Shit hot! Because if they had to take a photo of the bay then it will make it very very hard to get a turbo e serise back in the road :(
