    Dave hit the nail on the head.

    As far as I'm aware (from a NSW perspective, and what i'm relying on from both reliable expert mechanic's opinions and the RTS legislation itself) a 4AGE 16V on red P plates is legal, because it does not go over the 15% increase in capacity as it's simply swapping a 1.6L for another 1.6L (in my case of a 4AC AE71).

    My understanding of the restrictions are thus:
    * No superchargers (rules out GZE obviously)
    * No turbos
    * No engine modifications that require engineering / blue slips.

    Looking further into exactly what constitutes an engine modification that needs engineering / blue slip, you encounter the "if it's under 15% capacity it's sweet" clause.

    The RTA site has all the info you need.

    The golden rule: If not, keep it stock (looking).
