Does that mean ANY engine? Even if its out of a different Make/Model/Car builder?

again as mentioned above, the engine will have to be 99+ has to be same or newer than the chasis. thus your options would be b18cr or any K series, and comes down to how much you want to spend.

this would be ur answer:

and i would say YES to ANY engine...as long as the manufacturing date of the donor car is older than the recipient car, then it's illegal...

hmm i think it is illegal man..

if u tried to get the cert, i don't think you'd get it, or get the blue slip to rego it..

Sorry to bump this but can anyone confirm if a older engine can be put into a newer chassie and be able to be rego in NSW
