    Eoi Modified 1990 R32 Gtst With Very Fresh Forged Rb25..

    If this beast has not been taken by end of next month considered it sold mate, pretty sure nothing can go wrong with motor being forged!

    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.

    Rb25 Converted R32 Gtst - Getting Engine Numbers Checked At Vicroads?

    So now we have your jumping to conclusions out the way... you totally missed the point of several statements i made.

    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.

    If you think you can go into VicRoads and tell you them have done a motor conversion and that's all there is too it... i think you need to do more research.

    Change of motor requires engineers - there is absolutely no getting around that legally.

    If you do just tell them you have a "new" RB20 with a new number - you are then driving illegally, selling the car illegally, will not be covered by TAC, insurance and on goes the list.

    The new owner can easily turn that back on you if you sell it with rego.

    Pay the $500, get it engineered if you want to sell it with rego, or inform the buyer you did an illegal conversion and can't sell it with rego - they need to engineers etc etc.

    To note - VicRoads themselves will not care what mod's are on the car if the engineer has signed off on it.

    If you are selling it and trying to cut a dodge... That is even worse and frankly i wont allow a thread going over illegal matters to continue on this forum as its all kinds of wrong.

    Should the new owner be pulled over/defected/in accident/whatever - you as the seller and whoever issued your RWC will feel be in some serious shit with VicRoads/Law i can assure you.

    That kinda thing isn't taken lightly. VicRoads have chased up dodgy compliance items on cars 3-4 years later, so it is not as if it this type of thing never happens.

    If you have a RWC - whoever did it, did it incorrectly/didn't understand the laws (thats if you told them you had done a motor conversion at all)...

    They will probably loose their license so expect a court case from them as well (again, if you pulled the wool over their eyes).

    So to summarise - you have two ways to go.

    1. Engineer it to sell with rego (legally)

    2. Sell without rego, inform new owner of the illegal conversion and the requirement for them to spend $500-$600 getting the engineers passed (legally)

    Anything else, illegal.

    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.

    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...

    Other Comment's about the vehicle:

    I Bought the car stock in 2005, Im first australian owner. All work has been done by Sabbadin automotive including close to $20k in reciepts. Car is currently making 220 rwkw, once run in and boosted it should make anyway between 240 - 260rwkw with this setup. In closing I f**king love this car, but I just don't think i have room in my life to keep a quick car anymore, tastes change I guess.

    Contact detail's - VIA PM or in the Thread my number.

    Not the most flattering picks but gives you an idea of the car..

    Please no test pilots or tire kickers, and Im not desperate to sell so no low ball offers either, too much money has gone into this car to just throw it away so only reasonable offers will be considered.

    Thank you.
