Just wondering if anyone has been through inspection in australia and been told the legal height limits for the VTi-R teggy, mines a 95 model.
currently on SUPERLOW Kingsprings.
i just brought LOW kingsrpings to raise it up a little to advoid the defect.
however i just need to know the height requirements of the HUB to Guard (eyebrow height) its usally done in (mm)
im not woried about the height of the car from ground 2 front bar, that is taken care of already.
Thanks

i ve heard that u need 11cm off the ground... as in 11cm of clearence
General rule of the thumb is that a coke can must ba able to go under the car... :)
Under all points of the car :)
11? did they raise it from the 10cm it used to be?
As far as i know, they dont care about the distance from the hub to the guard, they just have a long stick with a 10cm (or 11cm?) diameter wheel on the end. They just roll that under various points of the car and if it touches the body then you are too low.
Pity if you drive a Mercedes A Class. they have about 8.5cm clearance from the factory!
I was always under the impression the minimum clearance required is 10cm at the lowest point
yeah 10cm, and that means ALL of your car so that means no dangly exhausts etc
mudguard as well?
i dont think mudguards are classified as a chassis
i thought it was 10cm excluding bodykits and lips ???
i think someone should just find the rule and post it instead of everyone guessing..
I dont know where you got the excluding bit from... from my knowledge on most cars its considered illegal to change the bumpers as they dont meet Australian standards, correct if wrong. Drop'in your car 1.5" won't attract your local police too much and remember the car will get lower when you and passengers get in.Quote:

in SA anyways we have 2 laws
* 100mm at all times clearance
* and eyebrow height, which is HUB TO GUARD which is Differnt for every car.
i need to know that height, because in SA they check both heights.
im clearly aware of the 100mm(10cm) rule
just thought someone might of been defected for it in SA before.
