I had an Aussie built V6 Capri and I imported lots of tuning parts for it from the UK. It had flared arches , lowered suspension, bigger wheels etc and looked and went well. I got stopped by the cops and they defected it and told me I had to put it back to standard!!! To say I was pissed off is an understatement!!
Sounds like WA is not as strict as South Australia.
Your car sounds like it will be a beast!!
The restrictions on vehicle modifications are just as strict in WA. Sometimes it's just a case of how long you can get away with it by 'flying under the radar"...

Thanks mate. I do have a build thread on here somewhere but it hasn't been updated for a few years now. I've had the car off the road for about 2 years getting the new engine built.
Couple of recent pics below. Managed to score a feature in Performance Ford back in 13' which was great.
