You would think that each state would be similar or the same when it came to modifying a FX or FJ Holden. How wrong could that statement be. !!!
Each state has different rules and regulations and each State Motor Registry are in the process of slowly adapting the National Code of Practice. The ACT already has and other states are soon to follow (if they already havent).
Below is some links to each states rules and Regulations.
