Hey guys,

I'm going to be doing an engine transfer soon and i have a few questions regarding sa rego.

Firstly i am transfering it from an RB25DE to an RB25DET. I get the same engine plate and compliance plate with the engine im putting in. So what should i do? Is there a way to declare this with Motoreg? and no engine plate transfer is required or will i need to go to regency and get it checked? is there a person who re-stamps engine plates and i can get away with it?

It's not a problem for me to go to Regency but i would rather get a way out which would be easier seeing that i have all the resources available.

Cheers

all Club Members should of received a copy of the Club Constitution here are just a couple of clauses for your perusal

now I'm hoping most of the plate swapping talk was said tongue in cheek but it has to be taken very seriously as its a prosecutable offense and could bring the club into disrepute

28.11 All members shall abide by the constitution and decisions made by the committee of the club.

30.3 A member may be expelled from the club in accordance with the disciplinary rules of the club.

30.4 Membership shall be forfeited through:

1. Misappropriation of club property or funds

2. For any act which is deemed detrimental to the reputation of the club

3. Contravening any section of the constitution or decisions of the club

4. At the committees discretion upon a review of their performance.

30.5 No refund of fees or donations to the club shall be given out if a member resigns or is expelled from the club.

30.6 Any person forfeiting membership must return the club property and club card in seven (7) days.

31.0 MISCONDUCT

31.1 Any member of the club may be disciplined, suspended or expelled by the Committee.

if any member hasn't received a copy of the Constitution speak up and one of the Committee Members will see to it your revive an email

Not only is it illegal, it's stupid. If you get caught, nice knowing you. If you don't have the money to stuff around and go to Regency, perhaps you should reassess your choice of vehicle. Also posting up on here about plate swapping is not the smartest of moves. These forums are monitored

Yeah, what the guys are saying is that the police do monitor these forums. Now you're talking about plate swapping (which you know by now is illegal) and the cops can easily see you are a club member. As your club executives, we have to say to you that its illegal and that would look bad for the club. We are afterall trying to demonstrate to the police and Joe Public that we are responsible import owners.

Nothing wrong with doing the conversion to turbo. Just swap the engines, and other suitable hardware (brakes etc) and then take the car thru Regency without the plate swapping. Plate swapping = very bad :)

:D

    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear 
    • so I need a new speedo cable 
    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
