Rwc On Modified Cars (Victoria)

[Bonjaz]

Last bloke I went and saw to sell my bf he didn't even put it on the hoist because it rained that night and would have to drive through mud. He's like you don't wanna dirty it do you, obviously I said no so he's like Ahhh well it's a pretty new car so that will do haha good old QLD

This is one of the reasons I am only doing mods that I can return to stock. If you look at the ads on car sales most of the medium to heavily modified cars are not offered with roadworthy. Cars with mods often sell for less because of this. If you keep all the stock parts you can return it to stock for sale.

It might be worth asking the potential seller if he/she has all the stock parts. Sometimes they do.

Good luck

many intercoolers require cutting to make them fit, this can lead to issues at rwc time if the tester notices it

Far out.. I sold a wrx with bigger turbo, front mount intercooler, 4" straight through exhaust with a single varex muffler.. No cat..

Got picked up for a slightly leaking CV boot..

RWC an sold 2 weeks later..

Wonder if this is where you go to a local small outfit mechanic rather then Ford and hope they don't notice anything other then the bigger wheels. I mean, not all shops will know what is stock or not. Although a stage 3 cooler may cause issues with cutting I imagine.

Pretty sure you're stuck with approved inspection stations though.. Not just any joe blogs mechanic in Frankston..

[da_ilks]

Nah most licensed mechanics can do a roady - unless it's changed over the past couple of years.

I'm in QLD so I'm only going by our system up here.. They need to be an approved inspection station, fill out the appropriate forms for the government etc every time they sign off a roady.

[da_ilks]

That's the same, official forms and all that - but most mechanics can do them. Obviously need to be licensed though.

Jesus so different to QLD.. Admittedly you get pulled for aftermarket turbos without mod plates, but a RWC doesn't take into account mods.. They basically just check for oil leaks, functioning brakes, working light globes and CV joints.

and Diff bush.
