SEVS law
Heres my summary and implications of the new SEVS law which commences on the 8th May 2003.
- Vehicle must be stock standard when complied. If not, the aftermarket parts must be removed then destroyed, being replaced with stock standard parts.
- In Months leading upto May 2003 compliancing will take longer than usual because of the last minute rushes to buy cheap imports. For this reason it would be wise to import before February 2003.
- Generally, the new laws mean that imports will cost more since there are increases in fees, and the common fact that most cars which come to Australia from Japan ARE NOT stock standard.
- Import vehicles already here in Australia are unaffected and owners may be able to sell their vehicles for a bit more, since one won't be able to import a Skyline GTS-T or 180SX for cheap anymore.
- Department of Transport and Regional Services are just a bunch of f*ckheads! (excuse me the language; I'm a car enthusiast) whos sole purpose for the new laws are to reduce the number of high-quality Japanese imports. They even said it themselves at a conference. They're just a bunch of poofs who prefer us to drive Holden (unreliable, poor quality, crap) Commodore SS's than Nissan Skylines.

Heres a petition against the laws.

Well you still can import if you're lucky and know the right people. My brother is currently importing a 1996 Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R for himself and a Nissan Silvia S15 (Yup.. 180kw+ .. not 200sx). The cars won't be here till mid February. Both cars are going to be complied before 8th May though so everything is good.

What does everyone think of the new Ford Falcon XR6 Turbo?
I think it's about time a good car came out of Australia. Rumour has it that the car put out 300kw at the engineering centre while it was being tested and the power was heavily restricted to be similar to XR8s so there would still be a market for XR8s.. pity.

Dream car is an M3. Duh
Looking to get a mkiv supra in the next few years.. depending on whether I crack and spend my scholarship money on textbooks (no! NEVER!)
Went for a ride in a pretty much stock 33GTR the other night.. the AWD sticks like crazy! Nice car tho, anybody want to get me one?

It sticks like crazy? I've ridden in a few R33 GTRs before and they don't seem to stick like crazy, relative to an actual AWD like an Impreza WRX.Originally posted by anti

GTRs aren't really AWD, they're rather Dynamic 4WD.

Perhaps I should've said, compared to a RWD GTST (which I'd just jumped out of), it's nicer around corners.
