Yea, Patrik is right in eastern europe. In Lithuania for example, if you want to mod your car and make it 20 percent more powerful than stock model, you have to get racing passport for your car, but you can still drive it on public roads with one condition: you’d have to install a roll cage.

But the biggest flaw in this passport regulation is that Lithuania doesn’t have an official dyno stand, (sure private companies do have them, but their dyno test results are “unofficial”) therefore nobody bothers to take out racing passport for their car and tunes them however they want, since there’s no way to officially tell if a car is 20 percent more powerful than stock model.

You might ask why not take out that racing passport and do everything legally? The answer is simple - that passport is bloody expensive (in most of the cases it’s more expensive than the car itself).

i’m going to guess here in the U.S. depending on which state/city you live in…. around where i live nobody messes with you , i don’t know of any restrictions except maybe a limit on a lift for a truck but i think it would have to be ridiculous , like no longer functioning on city streets lol

But I heard that they do have restrictions. For example you can’t make RB26DETT swap because it’s illegal there, and lots of more which I’m not bothered to mention. MCM made a video about california meet and they told all about that stuff.

Nebraska, zero emmisions, no lift limit as long as you can drive it under a bridge your good, and it has to fit between the lines, and move under its own power, some areas in towns have noise level restrictions, but I daily drove a 84 z28 with a 350 good for 400hp at the flywheel with open headers. Got 4mpg but drove it the 12 miles to school and 10 to work every day and at least a 100 mi on the weekends.
