Roadworthies..

Postby stockiEF » August 1st, 2007, 12:21 pm

hey guys,
just got a roadworthy done and dont need to fix as many things as i thought.. i have 2 questions tho.. 1) do cars have to be at their original stock height or is it the 100mm lowest point rule & 2) do cars have to have their stock exhaust or can they have any exhuast??
i ask these questions cos i have heard of people having to take springs and zorst back to stock when buying to pass for roadworthies.. i myself just need to raise the exhaust a little..

cheers

I doubt these things would fail your roadworthy, only if it made the car unsafe.
If he does fail you, tell him to feck off and go somewhere decent

some aftermarket exhausts are fine and may pass roadworthy
same applies with lowered cars.
it all depends on how low and how loud.

haha yeh 100mm- 10mm would be feckin sik! the guy just said i gotta raise the zorst so im off to D1SKNT's today to see what we can do about it.. other than that the guy seems pretty good so im happy.. also gotta get some new rear tyres- i heard of a place in Coburg where the owners happened to be Lebanese, where they sell brand newies for like $20- possibly stolen or off the back of a truck.. its worth a look tho so im gonna go check it out on friday! beats paying $100 at any tyre place..
