Makes for interesting reading:

this part in particular seems stupid, wouldn't this mean any wrx/sti after 03 would fail due to the hight scoop??

165mm is a fairly large object, id say our scoops are good.

Perhaps its time to go FMIC ala evo

165mm would allow small children to be sucked in I reckon! think we are ok unless suby come up with a new design for scoop!

the scoops are much smaller on the 06 onwards... only the 03-05 had the big one...

What I was getting at was the part where it says no part of the scoop can touch the sphere above the center line, which is only 85mm. At a guess I'd have thought the bigger scoops would have an opening higher than 8.5cm....

Just quickly measuring it, an 05 scoop would just comply.

But nothing to fear. You can't suddenly make a stock car illegal, so there wouldn't be any dramas with it.

was that some sarcasim or a bit of truth??

how can the police say something is illegal when its fitted by the factory?? it happens all the time.

i had an argument with a cop one time about the air tray and extractors on my commode, he tried telling me i needed permits for them, but i politely told him thats the way it came and now i carry build papers in the glove box to prove it.
