I know there is a list of engineers floating around but I can't utilise search very well so Im expecting a flaming :finger:


I was told of an engineer in Hillsborough who knew what he was on about with 4WD's etc and I would like to go to someone so accomodating ;)


I met the bloke who told me on a forum trip just over six months ago up sugar loaf and he rode his trailbike up instead of taking his rig if that helps any??

He passed my 4" lift, 33" MTR's and 35" Simex with a switchable speedo calibration unit $360 and it took about 20mins.

is gps a valid speed mesureing device if fitted to the vehicle?
so you dont have to wory about anything when you swap tire sizes?

I tried that with the RTA a few years ago. When I spoke to the RTA engineers they said no, and I also had a page written response about that and some related things which also said no. Basically the reason behind the GPS not being allowed is that it doesn't work in all conditions such as where there is limited or no view of the sky.

Got my car done today, with all the mods listed on my web page. Plus I asked Duane to list 37s on 15x10s as play tyres (occasional use). I am yet to see how he will write this up.

Measured track, headlight and taillight height etc...

Very nice guy, recommended to deal with (now I sound like I'm writing an ebay response!)
