RWC on Turbo E-Series in VIC

Postby JETEL6 » December 15th, 2010, 7:11 pm

Hey all,

Has anyone run into problems when getting a roadworthy certificate for a turbocharged e-series falcon in Victoria?

I understand that getting one engineered is quite a challenge, but is a VASS Engineers certificate required to get a RWC?

any input will be much appreciated!

Kind Regards,
Daniel

so how does everyone go about engineering these cars down in the mexican state? or do you not worry about it?

somehow i think it might be easier in nsw.

generally we don't.
dodgy roady or turbo off.

NSW isnt much better, but still more achievable then Vic.

If the RWC guy doesn't, VicRoads will ask you to remove it.
So didgy or not, it has to come off for a few hours.
