Haha, suckers!!! In the A.C.T i can put a 20B turbo (4litre turbo) in my Celica and get it fully engineered and regoe'd,and i don't even have to classify it as a "custom built" vehicle, just a modified production! I found out heaps yesterday and now the 13B turbo is DEFINATELY a go'er! also i found out about the way people similar to Jamie get around these situations in tight-ass states like nsw, you can classify your car as a "custom built" vehicle, that is, say you built the vehicle yourself, not just modified a standard production vehicle ( even though that's what you've really done.) that's how people build their own hot rods, and clubmans (PRB's, Caterham's, Westfields e.t.c) they get an engineering certificate to say that the vehicle was a custom one off sorta thing. It's a lot more complicated than this but that's the general idea. The only downside to this is that when you start saying it's "custom built" you have to make sure that the vehicle complies to all the rules and regulations that any new modern car does. This means retractable seatbelts, emissions, the lot. In short, BIG BUCKS!!! but fortunately i don't have to go to this extent so it's all good! Anyway, just thought i'd post this for anyone that was interested in it and wasn't sure like i wasn't before.
