GTS-T_Sedan Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 best bet would be to call either vicroads or the authorised engineers on the vicroads website tell them what your doing and they should be able to help you out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitar mad Posted September 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 been thru countless vic road pdf on laws modifying etc but can't get any definative answers , i know some of the laws in victoria are different from other states and i know a few people from out of state have done it , just woundering if there has been any one in melbourne who has ,ill phone some places tomorrow and see what the story is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiahn Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 did the same with my conversion, go INTO an engineers workplace and ask a few questions, they are the most knowledgable and you also get to make friends with the guy that may be checking your car over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam_Q Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 yeah they are, and the transmission also has the same mounts. I am sure you would have to do some trans tunnel chopping but this can be done legally if you go about it the right way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey mate. I was also looking at doing the same thing but with a ke36. I called up a few engineers till I finally got one that actually helped. And atm there are no restrictions on engine conversions in vic. So long as everything else up to the task of handling it. And I got a link on my laptop to the laws that they are trying to bring in. Which he told me will be ages if ever if they come in. But with the new laws an sr20det will still be legal anyways. When I get on my laptop I'll post the link up.

andrewly Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 I tottaly agree with the above comment, also I may be making ca18/sr20 to K model engine mounts in due time Those engine mounts would be really helpful. i will be needing them for a KE35 so if you can PM me or even let us know an esitmated time you will be doing these? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hosedogg Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 http://www.infrastructure.gov.au/roads/veh...es_3Feb2006.pdf thats the link for what they are trying to bring out but nobody is agreeing that they should come out. so atm there are no restrictions on engine conversions in vic but read that link for what could be out in a couple years time if you plan on taking a while doing it. also for any other stuff for vic check this link below. http://www.infrastructure.gov.au/roads/veh...n/vsb_ncop.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
