should be legal

from rta website
VSI06 - guidelines for light viechle modifications
page 3 of 8
mono constructed 6 cyl originally - supercharged or turbocharged
max allowable engine capacity =
in ml original weight(kg) * 4
1200 x 4 = 4800ml

so a 3 litre engine is allowable by heaps as long as its engineerable

Are you sure about that 1200kg figure?

haha Yeah, I love the thermo fans. Laughing
You fixed them up yet Norbie?!

Fixed? Well... I replaced one of the fans with a bigger one (aircon fan from an old Skyline), but it's still a bit dodgy. Smile

Anywhere between $3000-$7000 Shocked

The difference can be quite large between really good and really bad too.

Watch out for hatch rust as im sure you are aware from your celica.

Although some people pay up to $10k for one Shocked Shocked Shocked But, personally, it doesn't matter how clean an example it is, they aren't worth that much! Very Happy

I think you'll find a Mk2 Supra weighs closer to 1300kg as well. Should be 1275kg on the rego papers.

I'd rather pay what he did for a 1JZGTE Supra with decent suspension...than $10k for a stocker with an auto.

i know the supra weighs about 1285 kg but i used 1200kg so there was heaps of leaway and it was an easy number to multiply in my head

im pretty sure the 2jz MA61 is the route im gonna take.

is there an engineer on these pages i wanna know a few things, mainly if a larger transmission tunnel is made and welded in will it be legal.

can i put a half/full roll cage in it

cheers

One thing, if you are planning to run the 6-speed (I can't think of another reason you'd have to widen the tunnel) then one other thing to remember is the stick will come out roughly where your handbrake is.

Should be something on the RTA website about it.
