RXTurbo Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 The cars you guys are building are awesome, you get away with so much in the states.... I wish we could build cars with 30" tyres and divorced t-cases etc and legally drive them on the street!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLCraig Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 I've read somewhere that the 2inch scorpion lifts have the Ausi equivalent to DOT approval in New South Wales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RXTurbo Posted March 13, 2004 Author Share Posted March 13, 2004 Hehe, I guess I could be forgiven for some of you not knowing me I have been getting around here for a fair bit of time - I am a moderator on the Ausubaru board... What I am getting at is that in Australia we can legally fit 2" kits, but thats all, no 8" lifts, no 12" lifts etc etc. I guess we could do the divorced transfer case if we modified the driveshafts enough... About the most hardcore that we can actually get away with is the 3/4" kits so long as no cops get suspicious!! Anything over 2" lift you are basically running the risk of a defect notice - and to get it engineered by a licensed engineer it costs more than a kit does.
