Anyone rego'd a 4age swap in an E7? (VIC)

[KurtHS]

Basically just wanna get some info from people who have registered their engine swap, changed engine number etc.

Where'd you take it? What did they say? Did they inspect it? KE70 4age swap or AE71 4age swap?

pm hokey, he has done it a couple times

[Hokey]

yeh just get a rwc from a mechanic who doesn't know what he's doing then take it to dandy vicroads and get some lady to come out and have a look.

they'll tell you a story about how they had a corolla lIke that for their first car and won't look twice at it

good luck

forgot to ad it was a ke70 aswell!

I can get a rwc no problem, it's in an ae71 so it should be a piece of piss! Wonder if they could pick it at burwood, also wondering if they knock it back whether or not they put a notice next to the title/plates whatever for the next attempt. Too hungover for this thinking

Heh,

when I bought my Blue Sprinter with the 7AGE in it I ended up at Sunshine (first available appointment) and it seems that the car still had a 4A engine number listed, anyway since the cam covers said "1600" it was all good :) so now I have an immobile Blue Sprinter now with a 4AGE in it sitting in my driveway and as far as VicRoads is concerned its motor is a 7A...

If its a AE71 you should have no problems at all.

its the rwc thats hard to get, the pits is easy. at the pits the only thing they check is your engine number and because your engine number is the same as your old 4ac....because they share the same block....its ok. its not illegal to fit fuel injection to your car. and its not illegal to change your cylinder head, your not increasing capacity or pistons. its illegal to go from efi to carbs
guys with mini's fit 16v bmw motor bike heads with quad throttles and efi and get through the pits fine.

got done at broady when changing over from a 4ac to 4age in the e7 by an "ex-mechanic", apparently EFI didn't exist pre 1985... wanted engineers cert for carby to efi conversion.
solution: dont go broady lol
