You don't need a good engineer, you need a good builder who is up to speed with the ADR and what is/isn't legal, then when you have it to compliance with the regulations the engineer can come out and do his thing with his tape measure and sensor thingies once, if you need to get him out a couple of times its gonna cost you more.

Have you done the calculations for the VQ35, The formula for max capacity is on the RTA web site under "modifications"

AFAIK, there is currently like 2 workshops that will do engineering and they only will engineer work they did them selves. Apparently the new engineering licences cost too much due to insurance and stuff so no one wants a bar of them. i know a guy that wants to get his RB25 S14 registered in NSW but cannot find an engineer in the whole state that will do it. Rang all the candidates and all but 2 didnt do it anymore.

Just what i heard. Someone correct me if im wrong.

there will be more and more engineers coming out this year..

since this new "scheme" is only like a month old not many have registered or updated there details on the Roads & Maritime Services - NEW RTA NAME

the system is actualy better then before. all the engineering details are send to RMS directly from the engineer, so this saves carring an eningeer report with you and he said she said on the side of a road.

basically the enigineer will tell RMS what has been engineered send all the paper work to them directly.

depending on the modification you wont even need to see a RMS counter the engineer can update there system online.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
