No I did not. I’m sort of new to this. How would I go about it.

With a timing light

Did you check the ignition timing after the new belt was on?

Does anybody know what is needed for a wof in regards to smoke?

If there is no smoke once it warms up when you give it a rev, it will pass.

Everywhere I've read says reverse lights need to work if fitted, but not an issue if they aren't fitted

Correct. Reverse lights are a permitted  lamp. So you don’t need them.

Looking sweet.

Don’t get it dirty!

Does anyone have plans for a tru-test or similar? Looking at getting away from the 50cc pitbikes we've been building at school as they're $500+ for a kit plus the steel for frame/swing arm. 

@Felix @Ned ?

Chin spoiler looks lush.

I am not a fan of the text on the intercooler tho.

Thank you. Just got a steering head socket for cheap. Hopefully I ordered the right one.

So if im reading that right, RX3 Is MA therefore a internal rear view mirror is ok?

Yes, Pre 2000 MA only needs a right wing mirror or an interior mirror,

BUT, if you have tints, you must have wing mirrors on both sides.

(See note 1 in above link)

The virm has just been updated to say cameras can be used in place of mirrors, but it would need to be on all the time the car is on, not just in reverse.

Your 720 Is class NA (Ute) so must have a right side and either an interior OR left side mirror.

(See tables and images in the link above)

New flat deck utes usually get spacers/extensions for the wing mirrors.

@VintageSpecial I have moved all these posts to this thread.

just put new plugs in 

Did you put the spark plug leads back on the right plugs?

I’m not worried if we have one this month or not, but if we do, wholly bagel might be a good option?

It does not need to work, but it does need to be up so the safety markings can be checked.

That’s just a tease 

There is one exception:
“3. A vehicle first registered anywhere between 1 February 1977 and 31 March 1980 may be fitted with a second pair of dipped-beam headlamps”

My guess is the VTNZ guys assumed it was originally like that.

Here are the rules  https://vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/virms/in-service-wof-and-cof/general/lighting/headlamps

haven't sized up the 1VD no but figured if people are fitting LS's and UZ's into them

https://www.toymods.org.au/forums/threads/48436-1VD-FTV-V8-Diesel-Information
 

This guy reckons 1VD is 10-12cm wider and 182kgs heavier that a UZ

Have you sized up the 1VD? They are not small.

For number 2, have you considered a 2GR?

You can have one pair of dipped and two pair of high beam.
