it was mentioned here before but I'm unable to find it searching.

they were near frankston and really cheap to use.

not those decv or whatever they call themselves useless guys.

doesn't have to be this particular one any other suggestions for engineering work?

that aren't excessively strict.

It can be quite hard to find a decent Engineer that wouldn't necessarily be over picky. Have you contacted a few from the Vicroads Web Site on the phone?

They can usually give you a pretty thorough run through on what will be needed on the car for them to certify it.

What sort of modifications are you needing an engineer certificate for? if it is an engine swap that was available in that car from factory they will usually just ask that the same safety components are included which will be pretty much common amongst all engineering places.

Every VASS signatory is strict mate - it's their job to be, and it hinges upon their license.

I've found no VASS engineer any more lenient than another, just the prices are difference.

There is a VASS in Braeside that i used, and a couple of friends have. They are one of the more reasonably priced @ around $600 incl brake test.

Their details can be found on the VicRoads website.

it's just for a carbon hood. yeah i think it was in braeside what's their name?

in the future it will be custom headlights tail lights then power mods.

I'll know their website when i see it I had called them before.

the guys were reasonable over the phone.

I had previously called many vass engineers and all of them wouldn't even contemplate the idea.

these guys were willing if i meet their requirements.

    • It's the same with many brands that find their way into promotion via Youtube channel sponsorships. Those stainless guys, e-mail cut shippit, various other service and product companies.... they try to make it so that the only name that comes to mind when you think of doing those things is them, and then you just go get their stuff because your favourite channels are using it, so it must be good AND good value. Notwithstanding that the YT'ers don't pay anything for it. But a lot of people are not that sophisticated.
    • Yeh vibrant looks a bit overpriced, but thats the US market in general, they pay $50k for a gtst...
    • It's surprising you say this because talking to someone who headed Toyota's CARB certification efforts and was now working for Mercedes doing similar things he said he never had a case where he found that it was necessary to reduce ignition timing for that reason. Knock limits yes, but never because of in-cylinder emissions profile. I'm guessing between EGR and the number of TWCs modern cars stack in series it's not really a problem. I really doubt the NEO is that big a difference. You get what, EV6 injectors, coil on plug, a cold start valve that works off coolant temp instead of basically fixed time constant valve, and... I really can't think of anything else. Not like Toyota where they shipped first gen GDI in the 2JZ-FSE.  Something I didn't realize is that Japan didn't revise their emissions standards for light duty passenger cars between 1978 and 2000. I'm guessing there's a bit of phase-in, but that explains why 2002 killed a bunch of JDM sports cars off all at once. FD3S, A80, S15, Z32, R34, Z15A GTO all died off for that reason. And explains how all these cars got away with no EGR or much of anything other than a TWC and charcoal canister for the longest time.
    • 100% agree. Best bet on an RB will be NEO, but even it will be a long way off. Emissions is one of the big reasons car manufacturers went to DBW and constantly variable cams. When cruising, open the throttle right up, but reduce dynamic compression so low, that it's basically an unrestricted air pump moving very little air.
