u can put a 3t in without any hassles, but if you are putting the 3tgteu in u need to get it engineered


i highly friggin doubt it!! that would be an engine
conversion wouldnt it? and therefore needs a mod plate...?
in qld thats the legislation in the engineers manual.

rule of thumb (for Qld conversions): if the transplanted engine (and it's induction/fueling configuration) was also available as a factory option for your make/model of vehicle then no blue (mod) plate required..


yes, thats generally correct

note of caution: an overly zealous safety certificate inspector might baulk at having different engine model to the build plate on the car - highly unlikely tho. In this case, find another inspection station as you're obviously dealing with a tossa.

i have the up to date qld engineers manual for light
motor vehicles, i think its sweet to replace an engine
if it already has been modplated for that type of engine.
i was seeing about the paperwork - i think qld transport
has to be be told the new engine number and its all done.
