if you are just getting 3rd party property insurance, then tell them there are no modifications.

yes they are illegal but the chances of being picked up are minimal if you are careful where u drive ie. city on weekends, certain esplanades. Also how you drive, dont drive it silly in high risk areas and you will have no problems with the law...

cheers,
kev

qld transport may say yes....but insurance can easily say NO!

they are technically illegal if using a aftermarket intake manifold on tf/tg's as they had the airpump crap. same for the exhuast manifold. the chances are slim unless u are caught hooning!

it will look shit but ive seen some chromed.
my first gem was writen off, you can request to take the car home - and you evaluator will come a week later so you have plenty of...time...if you catch my drift?
