Does anyone know anything more?

http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/registration/authorisedinspectors/vsccs/index.html

I assume current certificates will still be valid? Might be worth getting one done before they change everything. Knowin the RTA I am sure they will make things more difficult!

"No change for vehicle owners yet

Until the VSCCS commences, there will be no changes that affect vehicle owners or vehicle modifiers. Current ECS signatories will continue to issue certificates as they do now. Any vehicle that currently requires an engineering certificate will continue to do so. The processes for registering vehicles requiring an engineering certificate remain the same.

Look at this page again in 2011 for more information on how the new scheme will affect engineering certificates."

judging by this it doesnt sound like people that currently have an engineers cert are just going to be left alone. from what ive heard they will make it more difficult coz apparently they r going to be alot more strict on the guys doing the inspections.bet it gets alot more expensive too :down:

The new scheme is similar to the old only that the rat will now charge the engineering signatory a fee for every report they right.

They could see all the engineers were making lots of money and they wanted a slice of the action.

Report inspections will be more stricter including emission tests and photo on reports to show mods.

my report had all of this and was done last year, it sounds like they are just trying to reduce dodgey engineering reports where they havent done everything that should have been done from the start.

    • 2 spots that my exhaust guy joined the 2 pipes together  Made a big difference. I'm now able to live with it. I can make it louder if I want by removing the HKS caps.
    • Hi all, considering clutch upgrade to support 1130 engine hp from 1650cc injectors on e50 at 85% duty cycle (1650 x (11.85/14.7) x 85%). Narrows down to these three as they can be converted to use gm 26 spline input shaft if I ever want to use transmission with that input shaft (orc1000f and r3c easy/cheap just change center hub; tr2cd pricier must change clutch discs). Pricing orc1000f similar to tr2cd, r3c about usd 200 pricier. Orc1000f triple plate 200mm. Tr2cd twin plate 215mm. R3c triple plate 215mm. Claimed max torque : orc 1000f 723 lbs ft; tr2cd 800 lbs ft; r3c 1100 lbs ft. Why orc1000f triple plate but claims lower max torque vs tr2cd twins? Is orc1000f underrated? Any info maxing out these clutches? Info on street/traffic driveability/pedal feel? Thank you for any info on them.
    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
