so does this mean anything for qld in the next year, cause my dead line for my 1200 ute is this time next year. im doing a s13 drive line sway into it(ca18det)

well if this happens lots of people will lose work, but what else is new with this goverment...

When I done mine in tassie I submitted an application to transport first to see if my changes were acceptable.They then give me a temporary go ahead to get it engineered That give me twelve months to complete it .But after that time you can go for an extension sr20's down here are ok because they are not over 2 litre but sr20 det is over the 2 litre mark thats why ca 18 det are the go So what I'am saying dont start a build till you get an ok, it might be for nothing.

Another side question to this is......Iv heard if you club register your car, you need a rwc still but there is no engineering side of things to a engine swap! Yur limited to amount of days driving the vehicle but thats about it!
Is this any where near the truth

Below is a cut and paste from VicRoads for club rego..

Applying for a club permit
To apply for a Club permit you will need to complete a Club Permit Application form together with:

written verification by the club secretary (or person authorised by VicRoads) that the applicant for the club permit is a member of the car club
in the case of a club historic vehicle that is not a street rod, a current certificate of roadworthiness or a letter from a scrutineer authorised by the club, stating that the vehicle is safe for use on the road
in the case an application made in respect of a street rod, that is a vehicle modified in excess of the level prescribed in the Vehicle Standards Information No.8. (VSI8) document [PDF, 1.06 MB, 6pp.], a Street Rod Inspection certificate issued by Jean - Christophe Bonneville (VASS No. 1042) of Bonneville Consulting, 19 Cantala Court, Endeavour Hills, Victoria 3802. Bonneville Consulting can be contacted on Tel: 0427212464.

Just put my ute on Vic club rego last week.Did not need an engineers certificate, just our scrutineer giving it a once over and then oking it on a car club form.
Having said that I have been involved with this club for many years and am not a young buck who will drive the car irresponsibly (on the road anyway )and so probably got some minor concessions from the scrutineer.
I think most clubs would not rego or even look at a young blokes SR20det powered 1200 especially if it is someone they have never seen before and it sounds like they are trying to beat the system.

The club scrutineer does have the right to ask for a engineers report if he has concerns.
90 days per year is the maximum allowed on the club permit / logbook system.

Club option sounds good for you guys, Our only option in WA is Post Vintage rego with a dead stock car.

The engineering from what I have heard and read is getting tighter, As engineers can find a loop hole to get around things, which aint what the gov wanted.

I noticed in the VCSS doc put out by the RTA in 2007 says the scheme would be operational by 2004 (page5) .. I wonder if they meant 2014?

My most recent experience through engineering was 2006, so i guess a call to your authorised engineer before starting any project would be a good idea.

I wish NSW club schemes would be expanded to include modifieds...

For a youngin you could take it to another country like Japan or China
teach Ingrish there where you can modify it to whatever you like,
engineer it there, own it for a year then bring it back as a personal import.
By then the youngin will be older and a couple of years wiser.
