good to hear mate

*sold*

Thanks mate, and all work completed by a very reputable melbourne workshop. The motor and head have both been basically rebuilt top to bottom, I will have to go thru the reciepts but im pretty theres around $1100 worth of work in the head alone. Let alone aprox $5k worth of work done to the bottom end. The car is insanely quiet and smooth and power delivery is amazing, a very good job by rob sabbadin.

It's "you're". Don't be so hasty in throwing in those dictionary quotes without checking your own grammar first. It makes it hard for me to view you as the highly intelligent person you're trying to perceive. Your advice will be duly noted tho. I in no way intend to trick any buyer into buying my car without understanding what they are getting. I don't have the time, nor money to source out parts etc to get the car engineered. So it will be up to the new owner to sort out. I would still like to hear from other people's experiences with this conversion tho.

First of all nismoid you need to stop jumping to conclusions, I never once mentioned anywhere that I would just say i have a new "rb20"?? And I never mentioned I wanted to do "trick" anyone into buying some illegally dodged up car (which it isn't) . Modified cars are always going to be a hassle, your naive if you think otherwise even with an engineers. After spending just a touch over $20k on this motor I am not in the position to spend anymore money than I have to, I just want to cut my loses and move on. The car is still registered, and my understanding is as long as the rb25 is matched to the rego all should be fine. If you get pulled over in it, whether or not its rego'd with the rb20 or the rb25 isn't going to make two fifth's of f**k all diffference r31nismoid, the owner is still going to get pulled up on the modifications, thats the risk you take owning a modified car. Thanks to everyone else for the reply's, Im going to book it in for the inspection.

Im not spending anymore time or money on the car mate as Im actually selling it. Im just curious to see if it is as easy to get engine numbers swapped as I have heard and Im wondering if anyone has had a bad experience taking their car into for the engine number check.

Hey all, Just had an rb25 built and fitted into my R32. Car is still rego'd with rb20, at a glance its road worthy (lights, washers, tires, etc) Im just wondering if it is as simple as just booking the car in to have the new rb25 engine numbers inspected and walking away with out any defect dramas? Whats the worst than can happen? I have a whole list of mods, altho the engine looks relatively stock (standard plenum, turbo) but it does have a sly custom fuel rail hiding under the intake manifold, as well as FMC and a POD, splitfires, aftermarket fuel pressure reg. My understanding was that engine mods falls into EPA catagory, and that unless you get an asshole inspector vicroads arn't too fussed? In the chance I do get an asshole inspector, Will he issue anything to my car to say its illegally modified? or will he just send me on my way and not hear anything of it again? Who else has had there rb25 converted r32 inspected and can I please here your storys before I decide whether I should risk taking it down? Thanks everyone...

Not sure with other states rules but in vic Ive been told its just a matter of having the engine numbers inspected.

No, still with rb20 motor.

price drop $13500

Bump. Open to possible swaps.

Sorry mate no thank you, no turbo or modded cars please.

Will also consider swaps for VY/VZ commodores or BA/BF falcons, preferably wagons but happy with a sedan also. Cheers.
