Has anyone registered a heavily modified vlt for the first time (my vehicle is out of reg)
My new setup is almost complete and nearly time to get it registered.
Has anyone here registered a heavily modified straight gas vlt. The most visible thing in the engine bay is a top mount gt3540 and custom plenum.
Its pretty much this setup minus the injectors
I dont wanna spray my engine bay till just before i drop my new motor in
Ive got a stock na motor sitting in the bay to register the car. But if i can get it registered with my new motor i would be wraped.
Any help would be appreciated
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

hahahaha. thats some funny shi+.
i was looking at fullboost.com forums and that john dude with that immaculate sunburst mustang 6cylinder gas turbo monster got his registered as is, top mounted manifold etc. but i think that car has been engineered???
how long has it been outta reg? if its no more than 3 months im pretty sure u can still pay it
if not then you go through pits
i'd love to see the guys face when he opens the bonnet to see a top mounted 35/40 im pretty sure you'll need an engineers cert mate i'd rego it with the na in it just to be on the safe side cbf takin engines out all the time
you have no emissions stuff hooked up which probably shouldnt be a problem cos your on gas but they may want to check it. you need an air filter on it for RWC as it is a spark arrestor

its been outta reg for 2years. lol. the build kinda got outta control.
apparently b4 feb 1986 u dont need an emissions test for lpg vehicles.
the first vl was about that time. do they check my model or actual build of that particular vehicle?

air filter is an easy fix.
so has anyone done this and gotten away with it?

this is the truth bout emissions testing
your car needs to retain all and i mean all factory ****
when u rock up at epa they dont test any emissions all they do is check it is all factory
boost
manifold
turbo etc etc
you can run gas as long as your setup is factory
if u want to run your plenums etc you have to get the test done to prove it complies with the stands back in the year the car was made at $2500 a pop i wouldn't wanna fail
just shield everything have your engine number ready and try make the bay look stock as possible
^^^^^I second that all I believe its Adr 27a your car must retain all factory pollution gear. Plenums are a no no too mate. You said you had the stock one in at the moment why risk it. Good luck
i heard it was pretty much a green tick, and that lpg vehicles put out such low emissions in comparison that they are far easier to get through an emissions test, even when modified?
You wont need to take the car to epa will ya??
All this guy wants to do is register it...and plain and simple u r dreaming ur gonna pass a rwc with a bay looking like that...but u will get to know the blokes at the rta/epa/ur mechanic very well

thats an exact list of mods etc u can do to your car
get a road worthy from a mechanic and if they have a go at you tell them you modified it after he gave the road worthy to you
if you fail leave it for a month or so and come back and try again
the government loves people like us on the road we are money pits to them thats why they keep letting us back and keep letting mechanics do botchy road worthies it keeps the enconomy moving and brax's wallet full
