i always thought that as long as they are fully captive when the car is jacked up then they are legal, but structal on the car has to be 100mm of the ground

Yea that's also what I thought. The guy pretty much wouldn't sell them to me, had to say the car was only for track use before he would price check for me.

Race track use only? Sounds like p00p to me. Get a second opinion from someone else. The race track is the last place you want a spring to become un-captive!

In the 10 years I owned my VL I never had a complaint about the height. Even though it was certed not once did I get the chance to show it to a cop

was it 100mm alex or lower?

I hope it is something simple. Cheers Marty stuck rocker arm id say. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

oh true,sick lol,and it was certed for lower than 100mm?

The only points that can be lower than 100mm is break off points such as fibreglass,Any Chassis or suspention componates shall be a min of 100mm(according to the wof book) Cheers Marty

A/C is only for jaffas isn't ???

If you pull it out (like mine) make sure you have a towel in the car handy... Not for the dodgy stuff in the back seat (although it can double for this) but to wipe the bloody foggy windscreen!! LOL

who needs a/c thats what windows are for

hahah i love the comments on A/C only good for heating up the front window in the morning and thats all i use it for , rest of the time its windows down. but i dont know about cold air , its more of a cold warm air if that makes sense? hahha none the less , looks like ill be pulling it out this weekend Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ah be very careful with removing the a/c lines, it is ilegal to release the gas into the air!ment to get the pros to come and suck the bad stuff out...not that anyone ever does but i use to have to when had paint shop. big big fines etc etc if you get caught. But lets be honest i doubt there is any gas left in a VL a/c unit in NZ!

lol it won't stuff the o-zone layer any more than what the fireworks display did for the world cup opening

theres a guy who comes into work and does the re-gasing de-gasing , should of got him to do mine hahaha freebie! but yeah i doubt theres anything left in it.. o-zone layer or no o-zone layer , jet planes have done the most damage since 1952.. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Whats the difference between a bt1 cluster and a normal cluster? I've searched this and found a 2km/h difference in theory, but i cant see the difference on the actual dash board. cheers in advance
