Any recomendations for engineers in Sydney that can issue engineers certificates and dish out advice on what can and can't be done? Or is there some sort of "guidlines" that say what can and can't be done that can be downloaded from the internet?

I will have to do some ringing around then.

But I have one question I will ask:

Are after market reprogammable ecu's legal for street registered cars?

(please don't post if you THINK, only if you KNOW, not trying to be rude)

Thanks

i got my engineer report done at Autosport Engineering, Kirrawee

Greg will help you with everything you need to know

was around the $700-$800 from memory

best money i have spent, havent been defected since i got it over 2 years ago. They have pulled me over, but once you show them the report they cant really do much unless they REALLY want to screw you over.

i have been told by police that they are not legal

on another note, if its well hidden and not visible the problem will not be the ecu, instead the emmisions that its creating.

Another problem is insurance not honouring a claim, due too your car not meeting road legal standards.

Can Stretch now do the Engineering himself ( in house ) or is he still getting the Engineering done through Werner ( TIC ) ?

I agree though..... Best money I even spent too !! :)

Not only to stop from being defected but it's also peace of mind knowing that your insurance is still valid ( as mentioned by AndyMac ) when your car is engineered :D

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
