WinKE55 Posted December 21, 2007 Report Posted December 21, 2007 why not buy that stomper 5K that's in the forsale section for $1500, it'll drop in and you'll have no bother from the boy s in blue? Cheers Jordan QLD Transport said I am not aloud to put a 5k in legally either. Far out they piss me off. Mates told me to grind off the engine numbers and put on my old one from my 4k. Or get a piece of aluminum and put it over the number and punch in the 4k. QLD Transport = Wankers. Quote
Jordan Posted December 22, 2007 Report Posted December 22, 2007 or simply change the engine and don't tell anybody, South Aussie spec :lolcry: above options are also good. or: claim (if you ever get pulled over) that that's the engine you bought the car with, say you know very little about cars and that it's the way it's always been. Or Just say it's the "standard replaceemnt motor" as the 4K is nolonger avaliable :fuzz: Cheers Jordan Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 or: claim (if you ever get pulled over) that that's the engine you bought the car with, say you know very little about cars and that it's the way it's always been. Or Just say it's the "standard replaceemnt motor" as the 4K is nolonger avaliable wink.gif I actually did this when i put the 3t celica motor in my car, i went in and showed them the engine number, played dumb, and because it was going from 3k to 3t they decided it must be a sports model or something, and put it through :y: Quote
WinKE55 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 Haha. But if I give them my engine number, the engine number will say 5K instead of 4K. They might get a little bit weird on that or something wont they? And if I get pulled over and I'm in my mechanic uniform I can't exactly lie and say I have no knowledge about cars. Quote
Medicine_Man Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 For what reason won't they let you put a 5K in? Quote
WinKE55 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 For what reason won't they let you put a 5K in? They reckon it needs to be blue plated and upgraded brakes. Thus me being on the new law I can not get a Engine Mod that I need a blue plate for. Quote
WinKE55 Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 Wow, Thats pretty gay.. Yeah. New laws suck a bit. I was planning on buying Kangaroosa's 5K. Though QLD Transport ended up telling me I can do it. Though I need a blue plate. Though I can't get one until I am on my Opens, which will be around 21. I am only 16 and have to age a lot between now and then. Quote
Jordan Posted December 23, 2007 Report Posted December 23, 2007 (edited) You can buy a real good set of Alpha/Numeric metal stamps form your local hardware store for not much ;) Other great conversions are: buy a 2T-G, 1589cc, a factory option in Japan and standard equiptment in the USA and europe (will the 2T-C was,) (but not any 2TG,) Find yourself a 3TC crank (78mm stroke vs. 70mm) and a set of aftermarket pistons with a bore of 89mm (up from 85mm.) Since all T series bottom ends are the same you can fit the 3T crank with little to no work, and retain the 2TXXXXXXX engine number. However the new motor now has a capasity of 1941cc or a little under 2L. This should be legal as the 2T-C/B/G's were all placed in the e50 and e30 series corolla's. This (unlike the 1500cc 5K) is actually a direct factory replacement, and there is no shortage of documentation to prove it. Enjoy Jordan P.S: or just buy a TE37 :y: Edited December 23, 2007 by Jordan Quote
