I've used this guy to fit (and engineer cert.) an aftermarket seat to a previous car.

Found him professional and reliable.

From memory the cert. was not cheap.

Hey Mikey :O

These guys are next to my work... let me know if you head there. He is strictly by the book though from my experience... although you wont have any issues with the RTA etc..

hey guys

just wondering what engineers cert actually does...does it make u like..."invincible" from cops for items which would normally be defectable...if you have an engineering cert for it?

If it's normally defectable then you wont be able to get it an engineer to certify it. Engineers abide by the book and are supposed to certify that modifications are compliant with ADR's. If they dont comply they wont certify it!

And no, it wont make you invincible from cops.. they will probably still try to defect you for something if you're being a prick to them!

oh ok

so its hardly worth getting then right?

It's worth getting in that; it shows the cops that you've gone to the effort of making your car legit, which sometimes helps... also gives less chance of fines, etc, etc.

If you get a certificate, i believe it also gets blue slipped? (when you get defected it does anyways), so it HAS to be legit... and yeah... if a cop picks on you after that, it's usually only a maintenance issue rather than something to do with ADR.

    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
