Not Ranked
Thanks everyone for the input, especially the NSW guys.
Baz i was worried that what you say might be the case with having to make the changes. Hopefully the boffins want have to many more meeting in the next few years before i am finished. National legislation framework would make things easy i agree, but they would probably just enforce the strict requirements of each state. Being able to lock in you ADR's would make things easy. Being able to purchase a publication with a set standard for adaptation of ADRs for ICV's would make things even easier.
I agree with the idea of what they are trying to achieve, as to be honest i would want my family driving cars that have the ESC (currently we all do). But i guess its another example minority suffering.
Who knows, maybe we are jumping to conclusions and the engineers will give an exemption.
At the end of the day the mechanics of fitting the system is not a concern for me. If i had all the parts sitting in a box i could make it work. All it is, is a bunch of sensors for each wheel, a yaw sensor, hydraulic pump and computer. But Something tells me the cost of aquiring all the bits could be expensive. And who knows what calibration is involved.
I am planning to take my chassis for testing in a few weeks when i hire a trailer to move house. I will pick the engineers brain whilst i am at it about what this might mean.
