    Default where can i find a "illegal" list + suggestions

    So basically i wanna know what i can and cannot do to my car in NSW as a P plater currently own a 99 VT Berlina its a slugamatic.
    The local cops have already gone over it to try to defect it,town im in is very small and us P platers get picked on extremely bad.

    i know all the obvious ones like V8s Turbos etc.

    Also open for suggestions(visuals and Performance)
    Currently have
    Tint
    Rims
    i have adjusted my kickdown cable
    I dont give a damn about subs im saving for exhaust and speakers now


    anyways cheers for suggestions and what not in advance

    hey man, can help with a list,

    but maybe look into a set of high ratio roller rockers, cops wouldnt even know they were there. Mace Engineering sell them, check the sponsers page.

    If you say you get looked at often, anything is illegal. Modifying your car in any way can be defectable. Use common sense, rims are often defectable, exhaust usually is unless engineered.

    there is no kickdown cable in your vt as the auto is electronic so what you thought you adjusted would be the cruise control

    he is the local mechanic before you wanna say anything about being a sh!t mechanic

    Just a heads up. Being new to the forum, don't come in here with guns blazing. You're only going to get people offside and end up in pointless arguements and get yourself banned if things go too far.

    started automatic transmission at tafe yesterday and we learnt all about this stuff...throttle valve pressures, governor pressures and kickdown cables...luckily for us we have a VT with 456km on it that we're investigating into next week...VT's won't have a kickdown cable, but if there is that slight chance there is, i'll ask my tafe teacher, and if there is, i'll get photo's for everyone...so next tuesday will determine if the VT has a kickdown cable..unless someone beats me to it haha
