Hey, looking at buying a car that has an 鈥媏ngineers certificate, but it has the other guys name on it so my question is will i have any problems when going to vicroads to tranfer the car into my name? would they issue me a new one or is that one okay to have?

thanks!

I believe that VASS engineers certificates only last for 30 days, and are used for when registering a new vehicle/re-registering or removing a defect notice.

I could be completely wrong tho.

I'm not clued in with the fine details, but my car has an engineers cert for an engine conversion. the cert just has written confirmation of the changed engine number and some mods (since the engine number is different from the nameplate on the car). it isn't addressed to the owner, it's just a cert with the engine details and I carry it in the glovebox

False,

Once you receive certificate you have 30 days to present it to vicroads in which they make changes on their system to indicate that car has been engineered and is legal.

Ahhh ok, that makes a whole lot more sense. I've only ever had to get one for a minor thing and the information on the Vicroads site is so damn confusing at the best of times.

Cheers!

      Interesting, I've heard complete opposite on my end. Bit of a lottery I guess.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Getting Dangerously close to being ready to go back in the car. Rockers in with clearance castings now (and a quick check with the USA for the torque settings for the larger custom bolts) Covers and ported FAST Manifold sitting on there. Not fully tightened down as there's some clearancing required for the water pump with the earlier LS1 water pump styles. Example of the clearancing needing to be done: The body has to be ground a little but I'm struggling finding an actual piece of it. The later variant of water pump resolves the issue as the manifold was designed around it. It only came on the VZ LS1 in Australia, it got a different pulley for Gen4 motors. (it also costs $450... vs... $0).

      Doing some height adjustment on front suspension on a v35 and noticed this. The passenger side looks correct. So wondering what's happened to the drivers side?

      Oh...I have the electric mirrors as well iirc ...they're in the same state as just about every other R31 door mirrors, with the 3 plastic screw towers broken/cracked in the plastic molding. All the interior is 'dry', so the mirror switches etc likely all work fine. Some pics below of the trimmer pieces ~ looks to me like previous owner, painted chrome finished trims with black paint ...ergo, the chrome underneath is likely a-ok... ...starts to look yukky posting stuff like this, how much did it cost in fuel on your last sortie up this way?...me just thinking aloud, borrow someone else's 4cyl to cut costs, come do your own pick'n'pull like before to save me some bother...hehe.. but whatever, I'll just earmark bits I know you want, because the way this is all panning out, I'll be able to retire the R31 from daily duty at long last, replacing it with a Subaru wagon I'm lining up in the wings...ergo, my attitude towards the donor pinny shell is starting to wane a bit, and I'm more than happy to help you out there... Like you say though, no rush...and I'll guarantee we won't be moving too far from this locale at any rate 馃槑
