Engineering Cert?

[sky_high_psi]

hey i was thinking about getting my 32 engineered for my full cage cause i figured since i do use it for street as well it would bail me out of plenty of trouble but was just wondering what the exact process is, like what do they inspect etc etc and how much would i be looking at?

thanks guys

To get an engineers certificate it usually cost around the $300, but I don't think you can get full cage engineered.

[R31Nismoid]

Depending on the cage, who made it, and if it was made to VicRoads specifications will determine if you can Engineer it or not.

If it really is a full cage, then probably unlikely.

See here to get you going.

Half cage will be fine..

the more stuff you get done the more it'll cost.

i got my current car engineered - it was and had...

86 'Mazda familia wagon

1.6 turbo conversion

bigger brakes front and rear

front mounted intercooler and piping

later model 323 seats

bigger wheels

and all the other jazz that goes with an engine conversion

cost me 480~?? and that was a flat price

sorry for the knob question but what is the point of getting an engineers certificate cant cops still put canarys on your car?? (by the way not being a smart ass serious question)

[Omurru]

yeh they can but makes it much easier when it comes to clearing the defect.

yeah i get what ya mean i guess

the shit (but good this was) after getting my engineers cert i havent been pulled over ( in 1.5 years) before i did my engine convserion and all the work i was pulled up 13 times in 8 months - the car was stock with a 2.5'' muffler THATS ALL!!!!!!

that 13 times includes 3 times in 1 easter weekend! LOL!!

as the other bloke said it may not stop you from being defected but MOST cops do acknowldge if you ahve taken the time and money to get it done by the book - which in the end is the way things have to be taken

[R31Nismoid]

Engineers covers the mechanicals.

Motor swaps, upgraded brakes/suspensions, gearboxes etc

Defects generally are things totally unrelated to a engineers like tyres, intake mods (x2), boost controllers etc.

So really unrelated to engineers signoffs

[33gtst]

But im wondering here, if your vehicle is engineered with one intake mod, its completely passed. Can you then have your one intake mod after the engineered one? And fight it on a technicality?

[R31Nismoid]

No you cannont.

It clearly states in the EPA Guidelines that you are only allowed ONE intake mod.

So if you have two, then you will get pinned.

Its upto YOU to know the laws surrounding modifications with various gov't bodies.

they are more lax if they come to your house, as there is no hoist:P

Full cage can be engineered if it meets vicroads requirements,

Good luck,
