Yeah Ok there is a slight difference in our case. origonally the MA70 had a 7MGTE meaning by the ADR it falls under the "owner certified" catagory. So a 7M-GE to 1JZ may need engineering depending on definition of the equivalent power of the 1jz to 7mge. From RTA's "guide" Do I need an engineering signatory for minor modifications? Vehicle modifications fall into three distinct categories: "Owner certified" minor modifications which can be accepted for registration purposes without formal certification; Engineering signatory certified; modified production vehicles; and Engineering signatory certified; individually constructed vehicles. Owner certified minor modifications are generally those modifications which were optional equipment for the vehicle concerned. Owner certified modifications also include some non-standard modifications of a minor nature which do not affect the level of safety, strength or reliability of vital systems such as brakes and steering. These modifications have little or no impact upon the vehicle's level of compliance with the Australian Design Rules. Examples of minor (owner certified) modifications are: engine changes where the capacity increase is less than 15% above the maximum size engine available for the vehicle (providing no major structural modifications are necessary and where noise and/or exhaust emission ADRs apply, all standard equipment such as carburettors, exhaust systems, exhaust gas recirculating valves, oxygen sensors and catalytic convertors relating to noise and emission control are retained and operate correctly) the fitting of a proprietary sunroof (if the modifications are of a minor nature only) fitting a "package" available as optional equipment for the vehicle (eg front disc brakes, power steering, alternative transmission and bucket or bench seats) additional lighting eg: fog & driving lights alternative wheels and tyres within the owner certified limits set by the Authority (see Vehicle Standards Information Sheet No. 9 Guidelines for Alternative Wheels & Tyres) fitting of handling enhancing suspension components such as roll stabiliser bars and up-rated shock absorbers [Updated on: Fri, 23 September 2005 04:57] [Report message to a moderator]
