cletus Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 they changed it to suit this exact scenario for old cars, so its .5 deg over oe spec, or -1.5 max, whichever is more. a lot of older cars the oe spec calls for positive camber, so something like an escort may previously for example, have been only allowed .5 deg total negative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlownCorona Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 awesome. thats nice and clear cut. i heard somewhere old crossply tires needed positive camber to work? i dont understand how tires work to that level, but can see as tire tech advanced aligments changed.

Bling Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Check your tyres are suitable for rim width too. https://www.lvvta.org.nz/documents/infosheets/LVVTA_Info_01-2009_V2_Tyre_Size_to_Wheel_Size_Compatibility_Guide.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good if it is because I'd like to be able to run both factory wheels and something with better offset and width. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiRge Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Failed on rust on my daily, and the WOF guy has put "Panel beater report required" in brackets, however chatting to a mate about it he said there was a another form im meant to get from the wof inspector if it indeed needs panelbeater sign off. Can anyone clarify if I can fix rust myself or i need said precious sign off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllTorque Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 There is another form they should have given you identifying the areas to be repaired. It has generic car structure pictures that the wof guy should highlight problem areas. Anyone can do rust repairs, but the wof guy will be covering his butt, because he can’t see under the new paint. Ask him if you can take pics of the new metal before you paint it or take the car to him before paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiRge Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Cool, i mean it's not even that bad, it's the bracket that holds the battery tray... I'm just more pissed ive had a clean wof for like 18 months then suddenly i have rust that is "structural and requires panelbeater". I'm definitely one for always asking the inspector about things that might require attention sooner rather than later (And yes, fixing them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AALAWS Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Hey Guys. My new ke25 shell has no paperwork history, but a quick call to LTNZ ( via the chassis number) and they told me it was last registered in August 2006, however they wouldn't give me any of that in writing for some strange reason. I need some sort of proof etc to get it re registered so they suggested I fill out a CA03 Alternative Documents Form and pay them $184 (their hourly rate btw) for the pleasure.......any words of wisdom before go further with this?

Carsnz123 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Why do you need proof? The compliance officer will have that information available to them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carsnz123 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Carjam doesn't like chassis numbers that arnt the 17 digit one on the rivited tag. Best go to the place doing the compliance and talk to them first. Get a written list of what paper work you need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajg193 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Nothing on the car to indicate what the original number plate was? Like etched windows? Or you could contact Toyota and they might have it on record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AALAWS Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Nah the shell was stripped, good call with Toyota though. I'll hit up the compliance place tomorrow and see what I really need to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
