20 vavle in AE92 need to be engineered

[SXI20V]

hi there

i was just wondering whether you need to get a 20 valve engineered for a AE 92 corolla SX i was under the impression that since it is the same engine capacity 1.6 that you would not need to get it engineered.

i had a 20 valve in there before but the timming belt snapped and there were to many problems with that one so i decided to buy another one and swap them over, when i went to get a engine number swap (blue slip) they said i needed to get the engine egineered for emmisions and what have you since it was a japanese import and it had the quad throttles

can someone please tell me wheter i need to get it engineered or not.

Yeh you will. I always thought the same thing, same capacity means no engineers certificate, but aparently you do have to get it engineered.

This question has been asked many many times.
The basic jist is:

- yes, it needs engineering
- contact some engineers to find out what they will require from you to certify the conversion.
- contact details are available on the RTA website

..... THREAD LOCKED. Doesnt need to go any further.
