Over here in OZ you can have any number plate you like,with the max of seven letters and numbers,it costs $200 a year.
The bad part about owning a modified car is it's illegal,every time i go out i **** myself,wondering if I'm going to get pulled over by the cops.
i know some that have,your car gets a defect sticker straight away,the next move is to put the car back to standard,
which costs thousands of dollars and go to the appropriate authorities to get a signed form to allow your car back on the road.
I say f**k um,i might get NOZ.
Thanks

What about, Perth?
When I move down under in a couple of years time I need to know whether I can mod my car or do I just by a stupidly fast one out of the box

You're safe in Perth mate, just check with perth-wrx.com or the West Australia Subaru Owners Club for further info.

Nice motor! Cookie1 and welcome to the site. Are you sure it isn't fly wheel BHP? Seems a lot out of a VF23. Plus your ambient temperatures other there are probably through the roof most of the year!
