Nathn Member 10 Member For: 17y 3m 13d Posted 31/08/08 03:20 AM Share Posted 31/08/08 03:20 AM (edited) Hey all, I would post in the vic section but I dont have permission or somthing.... anyway.. just wanting to know people's experience's or thought's on driving a xr6t pn your p's. What im thinking is it shouldn't bring to much attention if done, just take off the turbo badge, hide the cooler, dont drive in area's that will bring to much attention to yourself, keep it looking stock ... but mostly because every 2nd car is a ford on the road, it wouldnt stand out as much as somthing like a jap import ... I talked to someone who had a 33 on there p's for a while and said they never had problems and he lived in the south/east too (dandy), share your thoughts.

If you get caught then its like a $375 fine and 3 demerits from what I can remember..It just depends of your willing to risk getting caught mate.

Don't try to create law enforcement's attention on the road Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/49230-driving-a-xr6t-on-ps/#findComment-726085 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping nothing happens of course. But I'm of the older generation and a mum and I say dont bend the rules at all and as a mum I would like to see laws like motor bikes (WA) start small then progresss to the bigger HP. Well that's my thoughts sorry for the downer. cheers Edited 31/08/08 12:59 PM by Dagabond Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/49230-driving-a-xr6t-on-ps/#findComment-726096 Share on other sites More sharing options...
