[rthy]

Anyone seen details of this new law? (not the VIV type)
re. photos of car when doing rwc

seen afew posts on Holden/Ford forums

[Jdm-Mcc]

Yeah I was talking to a dude at winton and apparently thats whats going down. Get your photoshop on!

[bones]

nahh you dont have to take the photos they do, before and after kinda shit

[kriss]

my work just started with the new laws this week, photos must be taken of the vin on the body, pic on hoist with all wheels off ect from now on, pics have to be stored for 7 years

[Gear-head]

I know this is a bit out of the rwc but can anyone know if you can run a pod filter and pass rwc?

[Jdm-Mcc]

Lol at some fat corolla on the hoist with no wheels on, massive flares and like no suspension droop.

[rthy]

Do the work shops keep the photos or is it vic roads?

Should i rego the ae86 with a 4age or a 4ac these days?

[bones]

4age is fine in vic to get a rwc

[Gear-head]

I think the shops keeps the photo's but if vic roads need's them and see a different photo in the engine bay then there a problem so just put in the the 4age in its a just hope they wont pick it up I guess

There go my plans in the further for a t series diff

Isn't it to help stop phoneworthies?

4 brakes, front plate, odometer, and vin, no big deal really

[Javal]

4 brakes, front plate, odometer, and vin, no big deal really

I would imagine it's to help stop plate swapping also.

[claw]

pretty much, it actually makes sense, brakes should be good, dodgys on brakes is retarded, they dont take pics of the engine

[Sam-Q]

if it is just that then it sounds reasonable to me

[claw]

yeah my old man got his car done last week, i think its fine, so you put somewhat standard suspension in your car and clean it up a bit make sure brakes are good and youll be fine

[rthy]

thats alright then, thanks all

[regginblack]

Does anyone know what the laws are on brake upgrades? will they dick me for my willwoods?

Getting mine taken to a known mechanic tomorrow since i'll be in Adelaide for work, and need a RWC done by Friday to remove defect! On the phone my mechanic said to ensure brake's are good, seatbelts are equipped, and seats arn't ripped/teared. He did mine when i bought the car, kind of an 'easy going' bloke since back then he didn't even see my car just wanted some particular details.

Lol @ someone mentioning phoneworthies+the story above!

I need to get a roady to sell a car soon, so I'll let you know if they ate extra vigilant on anything else, but I'd say it's all been covered already.

[ae86]

should be interesting let us know how you go with it and what parts they see coilovers or any modified parts etc what they let through what they take photos of specifically etc..

[Water Boy]

Im stressing a tad about this RWC stuff.

Im keen to pick up a car that is a tad borderline (coilover, engine conversion etc)
