QLD Light Vehicle Modification guide

[poita]

QLD have updated the pdf guide to light vehicle modifications.

I haven't read the full document, but from what I have read it is much clearer in outlining what is legal. Handy for anyone modifying their car!

Thx.

for remap, alternative engine management or upgraded parts;

Modifications to the engine and engine components that result in an increase in engine power of more than
20% of the original engine power must be certified under the LA section of the National Code of Practice for Light Vehicle
Construction and Modification.

So how do they police that ?

They got a portable dyno perhaps ? :lol: pretty easy to get 20% more power.

That is what I was thinking, even some dealers have trouble detecting a re-map.
I was shown a report by the service manager from the "technician" that read "suspect this car has been chipped", the service manager laughed.

Can just see the cops pulling people over for a "Random Dyno Test" :wink5:

Yeah just pull a dyno out of the boot

Funnily enough they've just made mobile dynos illegal in Qld, have to be set into the concrete!

well, then there's no way they can enforce that 20% law unless there's an exception for police to set up a dyno wherever they wish. On the other hand, if in doubt, Mr friendly police officer , tow the car to the nearest place they have a dyno (i'd ask for a printout... saves you paying for a dyno run :) )

[poita]

My thoughts too dutchy, free dyno run
