    Don't need engineer certicate
    Going from 1.6 to 1.8 is fine

    suspension
    bigger brakes
    steering wheel
    bucket seats
    aftermarket rims
    aftermarket exhaust.

    best to get an Engineer Cert. at the same time...

    pretty sure because of the increase in displacement from the 1.6 to the 1.8 you will need an engineer's certificate.......

    can you throw an older motor into an newer model chassis?

    say the b18 was a 97 model would you be able to throw it in a 00' chassis.. legally.

    If they have the same or lower emissions then yes u can. If not no.

    For example a 96 b16a into a 97 ek chassis is fine due to the same emissions.

    Also i believe that you do not need an engineer certificate for changing your rims within 2 inches of stock.
    Anyone selling a black ek1 facelift Hood (OEM)?? PM ME

    lets just say i put in 16" rims into my 2000 ek hypotheticaly how would i go about getting an eng cert for that and what are the costs behind it etc

    well, cops don't really bother you on 16" wheels on an EK.......... but if u were really pedantic, u just gotta call up RTA, ask for your nearest engineer, then book and time, then go and get it checked out and get the looked over and get your shit engineered n get the mod plate.
