Most people will tell you a 4AGE conversion into an AE86 does not need engineering due to the capacity not changing, and that's going from single to twin cam.

Yeah i'm not 100%, so it'd be worthwile to double check with the RTA.
The 16v 4AGE was available in the AE86 (even if we didn't get it here in Oz) so no engineering required. However the 20v was never available in an AE86 or an AE92, hence the engineering requirement. At least this is how I understand it but feel free to correct me if i'm wrong...

Technically that would require engineering, unless you upgraded EVERYTHING to japspec AE86 (brakes etc, I'm not sure if anything differs)
And regardless of that, you have converted a car from carby, to EFI, and therefore you have played with the fuel system.
While the engine conversion wouldnt require engineering, the fuel system would.
And I'm not sure about over east, but for a conversion in Perth, anything over 30% power or 30% capacity increase, requires professional engineering.
I'm not sure if other states do the power increase, but a 4ac to 4age is more than 30% power.
Do the right thing, check with the RTA
In Perth, we also have to fill out a pre-approval form before beginning any swaps.
They basically tell us if we will ever be able to get the car licensed.
