For Questions Regarding WOFs/CERTs/NUMBER PLATEs

Last one I saw, with those arms I failed it due to the way the threaded joints are loaded under accel or braking , the threaded parts are put under a bending load , which lvvta does not allow 

 

But then recently I was part of a discussion where it was decided they were OK 

 

But there hasn't been any official answer 

 

So I dunno 

Maybe save your $ for some pies 

I've been meaning to make some spacers to take up the slack in nissan lower arm bushes as they deflect a lot and I have a theory I'd like to test 

I drove a 800ish hp gtr a few months ago and the owner told me to give it some beans, so I did, and it did odd things under power , looking at how much the arms can move, I theorise that the alignment is all up the wazoo under heavy acceleration

The engine made so much torque, the chassis twisted off the line.....

Weird question, but what's the legality of mounting a rotor on the front of a hub (secured by the wheel being bolted on, like modern brakes) that previously had it bolted to the back?

Obviously stud length is a consideration, and whatever the deal with the caliper is, but I guess as long as the rotor is hub or stud centric it should be fine?

I never certed it, but I did that when I put S13 brakes on my old 1200. 

I showed the conversion to the local cert guy at the time, and he said it looked fine.
