yeh think you can buy mufflers for screamer pipes but they're for track days etc

You are only allowed to increase wheel size by 2" unless you get a permit which it sounds like you do Pete... never heard of the width issue though... Also you can get 225's onto 8" rims as i have 225's on the rear currently aswell...

Na they fit fine.. 8" VX HBD rims i bought from OLDGOLD a while ago... they dont look any different to 235's by the naked eye... just leave a slightly smaller mark on the road... prolly go back to 235's though so cops can't whinge about the different sizes between front and rear... i picked them up cheap is the only reason i went 225's.. bloke at tyre shop reckons 215's won't fit so yeah...

Apparently there is a new rule. OVERALL diametre cannot be any more than 1", or 25 cm larger than the stock wheel. Its what I have read and heard from a few Tyre shops...

Do i? i'll have to speak to some engineers, I have no idea.. Im thinking of just getting a led, and getting power from somewhere in the centre console, and just sort of let it hang there? or neatly install it near the shifter. With the 'sometimes i find myself int he wrong gear' lol, either your box is standard or you just need to get used to it... with mine you know when its in gear *cunk* ..

man u can have a full manual auto...whats the difrence with a manual gear box..not every one can drive manuals but there legal for every one to drive when fully licenced as for full manual well trhe way i c it is that it is a manual gear box but with no clutch so there shouldnt be a problem at all

Yeah seems like a grey area hey

goin nuts on your car hey Chris?

Isn't it a rule with manualised auto's that you must still have nuetral lock-out with means you can't start the car in nuteral? Don't hold me to it though. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

nuteral/ park switch car can only be started in those 2 gears and yea you have to have that, same with reverse lights and speedo. I didnt get time to go down there lol between watching meet the perants and making a milkshake i was flat out , At the moment im having to make a nuteral park switch and a reverse light switches ill probly end up putting detent switches in the shifter somewere.

Ive got a Pro Ratchet and I have a permit for it. There is no light for night time driving but just learn to drive and you'll be right.

just went over the pits, they were pretty easy with the pro ratchet, i went over with hsv 19's and my placard has 16" wheels, no problem. I guess I had a good guy.. its really who assess ya car, luck of the draw

235's pfft my wagon has had them on for the past 15 years and was owned by a cop b4 me. too wide pfft....

I think the whole tyre things a bit hazy too. mate at my old work had 265 on the back off his starion turbo thing, never had any trouble
