ended up with a second-hand 77tsi, got an exemption for it today even with my poor driving record.

although the blanket ban on turbos is now shifting so may not have needed an exemption anyway.

Well done, and it's good thing you did, because they haven't completely removed that requirement.

From their website:

To clarify some recent reports, VicRoads has not lifted the ban on P Platers driving turbo cars. It has only been lifted for turbo powered vehicles with a power-to-mass ratio of less than 130 kilowatts per tonne, and the manufacturer has placed the power-to-mass ratio on the build plate.

yeah i read that. I was wondering if you could get the build plate modified by the manufacture, because if not wouldnt this rule only apply to new vehicles
