It doesn't need to be crash tested. That's only production vehicles.

The NCOP (National Code of Practice) I have read quite intensively and the kit will be fine fitted to the vehicle as it is classed as fitting flares (ie 4x4) and no problems.....The issue comes with the offset increase on the wheels.

It states that you can only increase the track width of a passenger vehicle by 25mm and therefore the increase of 60mm per side at the rear is going to be a problem

That makes perfect sense.
Government official: I see you have taken a car that was built to be oversteery and unstable from the factory and made it safer by widening the track width. I'm sorry, but that is illegal.
Stupid laws!

Hi guys, reviving this thread but legality aside, are there any shops locally that can bring this in for me? Or would I be better off importing directly from greddy myself? Thanks!

If you haven't had any luck here, maybe speak with some of the Japanese forwarders like Jesse Streeter or Hayatonka who can arrange the whole purchase/delivery from start to finish.

Anything that is not ADR is not legal... change the exhaust and it's not legal ... after market blue lights and it's not legal.... just a matter of what is reasonable and the HWP officer that pulls you up... simple

Yup got a quote from Daniel, very reasonable. Just need to figure out everything - I haven't actually purchased/ordered a car!

I got my Rocket Bunny Rear Diffuser last week.. It definitely isn't urethane, it's fibreglass.
