Hi

+1 for changing the engine number pre going there, cordias came out with 4g63's in them (DASH) so they are an approved engine and the only thing that will hang you up is an aftermarket ECU and the lack of a CAT as the VR4 engine came out with one. I have heard various reports about the price of the emissions certificate re the aftermarket tune ranging from $200 - $1000's. i would say it would need to be a very conservative tune to pass though!! And Jon's idea re the reason for the engine change is a good one. Everyone knows getting good bits for the old G62 can be a pain.

If the car is clean and tidy you should get it through. It will save you getting asked hard questions.

they have no problems with bigger brakes etc as its improving the safety as long as the wheel track is still with'n the guidelines, i forget the master cylinder requirements if the brakes go over a certain size however. But ones from other cars fit (manga i believe)

best bet is to have the car clean and tidy. remove gauges from the dash as they will be a non compliance due to crash regulations etc. and will make it appear more of a hoon car to them, most of them are pretty good to deal with over the phone if you have questions.

Also what was it defected for re the regency reason? It may be possible to have it modified to a cop shop only one as some things can be cleared at both.

be great to see it on the road again!

Thanks for the info mate, I'm dreading
Taking it there, but have to do it sooner
Or later. Yeah installed cat on the exhaust
Before taking it off the other cord. She's
Running stock dual board vr4 ecu. Everything
Engine wise is standard at the moment. Kinda
At a loss what emissions stuff I need on it though

As for changing the engine number, I don't think I can
As I believe ev thing is still in brads name, I prob can't
Do a thing as I'm not the registered owner. So makes it hard
For me plus, being defected would they let you change
The engine number. In all my dealings with them, diff ppl from
Same organization tell you diff things. So yeah dunno.

Ah yes, it being in his name would be a problem in a way, I wouldn't see the defect preventing them from changing the engine number though. The form you need however is this one. I guess brad will have to be in the owners details so they dont question the sale of a defected vehicle.

Once the defect is cleared you would be able to register in your name after you get an ID inpsection ($56)...the ID inspection will confirm the engine isn't stolen. Then it's a simple process of registering the car in you name once the engine number has been updated....thats the info I was given when I asked the same question when I had a defected car....After getting the ID inspection done you can go to any Service SA and register it...

its come up very well , good power also

Far out so gotta do I'd inspection also, that including
The defect inspection fee that's 200 bucks wasted even
If it passes the 1st inspection, which I can bet it won't
That's even before rego and probably be a transfer
Fee also. Not bad are they lol. Thanks for the info man. Least
I can be prepared.

TD05 16g at 8psi thought they were 11psi stock wastegated
And is your "evo2" a 1.8 or a 2.0l ?

Its a 2L.... good read:

The acctuators are preset to 11psi, pressure drop due to restrictions in the factory system lead to 8PSI at the plenum.

Running the accutator off the plenum allows 11psi at the plenum, obviously the turbo will be compensating for this.

was hoping they'd be lighter

original alternator pulley-366g
Jasma one- 248g

original powersteering pulley- 240g
Jasma one- 182g

Havent weighed the original crank one
but Jasma is 784g

those pulleys are great , and good the $$$ too,

after that dyno I fitted a AVO bov and the boost went to 12psi , but before it was 8psi ( leaky factory BOV ) , its a real evo so 2.0 , Im going to bump it up to 14.8 psi soon

my second evo 2 runs about 12psi with the stock bov though

Is that crank pulley dampened? If not, I would stay right away!!!

Just curious as It looks solid.

It doesn't have the vulcanized rubber centre..........therefore crank vibration may be a problem.

So does that mean the nut will keep on coming undone?
Or will it stuff up the engine? Won't feel as smooth?

Been neglecting the cord for awhile, so since
It's a long weekend thought I'd get stuck into
It. Today connected the windscreen wiper squirters
All working. Also mounted the ecu in place properly
Put the same place as in the blue cord nice snug fit
Near the fan blower.



Also noticed my boot light
Is on all the time. Even with hatch closed. Guess I'd better
Add that to the list. Anyone know where the light switch
Is located? Thanks
