over 8% weight change is illegal as it makes your brakes over effective. its just like your rolling diameter of your wheels has to be within 3%
Hey guys, wanna do some light weighting on my t18, and was wondering how much i could do before it becomes illegal?
Thanks,
Andrew.

its SA dude........
lets be honest.........breathing out at the wrong time will most certainly constitute a defect.......
just only ever fill your fuel tank half full and remove all the loose change from the centre console, thats all you will get away with
^^ dont forget to take a dump before you go for a drive
so i couldnt even remove the backseats or anything like that?
Thanks,
Andrew.
if you remove the back seats, the general rule is you also need to remove the seatbelts, seal up all the bolt holes and take it to regency to get it re-registered as a 2 seater. That would be the correct way of going about it.
Seriously just do what you want. its S.A. so chances are you're going to be defected anyway
You can remove the rear seats. Seen it all over 4WD forums. As long as the vechile isn't being used for commercial vechiles it is generally consired fine. All depends on the cop on the night though.
Could also remove the sound deading from the rear half, and the sound deadning on the front firewall and still get away with it.
Get light alloy wheels instead of stockies. Good few KG's there.
Remove some dash parts, and aircon system if you have one.
Run without a stereo, or a very limited one.
ADR approved bucket seat . . ie Velo.
Change the spare to a space saver or I;ve heard of tube in a can (Don't know how good they are though).
All possible, depends how arsed you can be.
End of the day an E7 is and E7
Legally dont need to run a spare.
genkin is correct on the rear seat removal, its best to get re registered as a 2 seater, dont need a full regency inspection to get this done, however if your car isnt the best probably best to steer clear of regency if you know what i mean
