Post by matsmad »

Yes i know it is illegal in QLD but i live on the NSW border, and am moving north to maroans country. If i keep my SWB MQ registered to NSW but live in QLD, will i get hassled by the boys in blue?

if its registered in NSW..... as long as you have it engineered and legal in NSW, then regardless of where you are they cant pull you for the SOA, they may pull you over cause its lifted, but show your cert and rego papers etc and you will be fine.....

but cops being cops, may still try to get you on mudflaps or tyres or something......

i remember a thread a while back, stating that QLD cops, can make you trailer it back to NSW, even if your mods were engineered, but they dont deem them acceptable,

If you are going to leave the rego in NSW, see if that person or family member will let you rego it in there name and you cover the costs. I did that ages ago when i was having a bit of trouble with my ex, that way she couldnt touch it :finger:
Its not cool, unless it's got boost :)
