just wondering if any one knows of any regulation for the HQ coupe ie; -ride height
-roll cages
-bonnet scoops( i was told if it was before a certain year you could have a hole in the bonnet with catcher petruding)
is this correct? and if so what are the specifications?
Any help would be great as S.A has some pretty ****ty rules compared to other states!

Don't ask we'd all say do what you want!
Please ask your local Roads & Traffic Authority. And get it in writing while u are at it !

The old rule for HQ was 32mm from the bumpstop and 36mm for HJ onward.
Roll cage is a big NO.
From memory bug catchers sticking out are also illegal , something to do with obstructing vision,

Ask the guys at Regency Park (Road Transport Authority) they have all those answers and more because thats where they do the inspections and certifications for all mods and defects etc. Phone them up and ask.

Like Pig Rig said. Ring Regency and talk to them and ask them to send out the relevent info on mods that can and can't be done to your car. That's how I found out that I can have a turbo on my HR Van without the hassles other's can encounter because of th
