Just sighned an left this note

"This will effect enthusiast who modifie the older cars out of love a passion, more than it will hoons and dickheads. You can drive like an idiot in anything, and most of these enthusiast wont be willing to put there pride and joy at risk to have some wanker tell them how 'SICK!" they are."

Well said, I just signed it too.

just signed it too

Signed

signed also, i actually think i signed something similar to this last year some time..

My comment: "Modifying cars is our passion, why try and make the things we love even harder to achieve? 99% of the community go by the books to modify and engineer their cars legally. Punish the 1% that dont"

Also saw this comment which i thought was interesting

"Yet again, well meaning but often misinformed government members are advised that there is a problem in the area of modified vehicles.
Make the roadworthy requirments very stringent, and enforece themn where necessary, but do not place a blanket restriction. In 38 years as a highway patrol copper in Victoria, my experience shows me that TRUE enthusiasts and their vehicles do not cause problems on the road."

Don't get too excited about the doom and gloom. Not too many changes for 1200s.
Enforcing seatbelts, collapsible steering column and window washer system on pre-ADR vehicles is common sense.

Removal of intermediate weight class affects larger Bluebirds maybe.


If you want to read the truth.. not the hype.. The changes are called VSB14 'version 2'

signed and comment :

"Engenieering cars for modifications is fair and just. Power to weight ratios for engine conversions is fair and just. Making 30year old cars comply with current ADR's IS NOT fair and just.
Limit the choices of engine transpalnts into cars. Car is Naturally aspirated, must remain so etc.. There should be no limits on brake modifications, they only make a 30year old car safer. Let common sense prevail. Upgrading a 1.3 lt car na to 1.6 or 1.8lt na should not be a crime if the engine is similar age."

signed. Let common sense prevail! what has this place become. Watch irobot and the island (movies) Is this #OOPS# real!!
