I wouldn't think so, unless it is work related you would have to get an exemption, correct me if I'm wrong.
Better start saving for a car like that if you're 15! :rofl2: :rofl2:

Also, the search function and google are your friend.

No you cant. In QLD, no forced induction, no v8s, max power 200kw.

It will be your first car. Buy a crapped out VN and practice in it. When you stop hitting stuff and breaking things, then spend some money on a decent car.

Not really. The engines compression is too low to be N/A, it would run like an absolute dog. Plus you would have to change heaps of stuff, like the wiring, the ECU and BCM, etc, its just not worth it.

Buy a VN or VS or something and drive that for a few years until your off your L's and P's and then invest in a nice V8 or something.

As much as you think you are/will be a good driver, you aren't, get a few years under your belt and then do what you want.

In vic you can get an exemption for most supercharged V6 models if you have a good driving record but not sure about other states. It would be worth looking into though, you don't want to drive a crappy VN around for 4 years so you may as well try and get something decent (if you can afford to buy it outright that is!)
