Meh, it's only got to last another 10 years or so until you'll be forbidden to drive it. Keep it dry and forget about it. -
The title of Engineer is not protected. However different states have different rules about what an Engineer requires to operate. Engineering for a motor vehicle modification is very different to engineering for a bridge, electronics, etc, including what that engineer needs as certifications. In Canberra, "Engineer" is the loosest category with basically nothing stopping you calling yourself and engineer and designing a bridge or building. From what I've reviewed, QLD has the strictest requirements through RPEIQ.

Yeap, legal modifications are limited We have rules and regulations on what you can do legally This is for NSW, other states have different governing bodies https://www.nsw.gov.au/driving-boating-and-transport/vehicle-registration/how-to-register/registering-a-used-or-secondhand-vehicle/modified-and-non-standard-vehicles https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf Lots of people just roll the dice though and just hope they don't get picked up, as the police and RMS occasionally run roadside inspections, getting "defected" for not complying can be a painful and expensive experience -

Out of curiosity, I believe the title of "Engineer" is not protected in Australia like it is over here. I'm curious, does Australia actually have professional engineers do vehicle inspections? If so, Jesus Christ what in the f**k.
