If you are in NSW or Qld, it depends on the weight of the original car (not what it actually weighs, but the figure quoted by the manufacturer). You multiply that figure by 3, and that's the largest engine you can legally fit; so for a 1000kg car, you can have an engine up to 3000cc. For turbo/supercharged engines the multiplication factor is 2.5, so you could have a 2500cc turbo engine.
Does anyone know the official weight of an AE86? I'm guessing it's under 1000kg so a 1JZ-GTE wouldn't be legal, but a 3S-GTE would.
