Found this link on MCCR, suposidly calculates power to weight and tells you if its legal or not for P platers to drive. (This is based on Victorian legislation, I'm not sure what regulations there are in other states).

This is handy, because you can work out your power to weight ratio...

Hey,

You can have 125 kW per tonne, which equals 8 kg per kW. You must also have less than 3 litres per tonne.

A standard AB Cordia with a TC06 has a 9.33:1 ratio.

Interestingly, the only reason a P plater can't drive an older manual WRX (not the newer ugly ones) is because it's power to weight is something like 7.98:1 whereas the auto is 8.05:1. Arguably the auto would be less safe! Less driver attention.

hang on...so are we illegal in stock cordy's..??...like to know...for my missus...but i guess if you can rego one on her name must be ok right......lucky i'm off my p's (six months too late tho) end of feb,,yay!
