Hey i've got a cefiro coming over from japan soon, problem is, it has been converted to an sr20det.

Can anybody suggest anywhere i can get it engineered in melbourne? Or if I can just get it registered without having to engineer the conversion? since Cefiro's were never made here anyway..

Thanks alot, Bryan

If it's been done in Japan you won't have a problem registering it as it gets a form of engineering when it's complianced (hence the engine number and suc h will be the one it gets complianced and RWC'ed with).

You MAY have a problem on the road however without getting it "engineered" (i.e. as part of your rego conditions) for defects. But I wouldn't really worry about this too much as cops won't know what a cefiro did and didn't have.

This is what we originally thought. But the compliance workshop J-Spec referred us to (Duc Do in melb i think it was?) said their engineer won't do it? So it should just go through the normal compliance process, with the engine number on the SR instead of the RB going on the compliance cert?

Thanks alot, Bryan

Well if they won't do it then they won't do it.

I suppose it's up to you if you want to find another compliance workshop or not.

My question is this - if they won't do it, how do they propose to get it complianced without an engine? I don't understand.

There are a few people who have had sr20 converted cefiros from JP perhaps one of them is in Vic and can tell you where they did it.

Good luck.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
