Cobra registration in NSW

[Modena]

Actually sidepipes are legal in Vic, or more accurately there are no ADR's or local state laws that prohibit them. To get an ICV with sidepipes registered I believe the requirements would fall into two areas;

1) the engineer would have to sign off on "general safety requirements" (I forget the actual ADR) e.g. engineer may determine that heat shields are needed.

2) pass the noise test

The ADR you may be thinking of regarding to exhaust pointing at the footpath, was deleted years ago.

With a 540ci engine, good luck with number 2) above , and while we're at it good luck with the emissions test!

^^ this.

My LSA-powered Pace barely passed the IM240 emissions test. And that was running a factory PCM, a factory tune tweaked by HSV's top emissions guy, OEM cats and the motor is only 378ci.

Perhaps you might get it through on the Vic club reg scheme (assuming you are coming back to Victoria)?

I don't believe QLD has an emissions test but they likely have a noise test.
