JPJ based enquiry

[pinkdotdesigns]

Dear Sifoo's frm ZTH,

I am quite of a delima here. I recently transplanted a 4g93 n/a engine into my car. Btw, my car is a 4g13p satria.

So now, here's my delima.
I asked a few of my friends and they said i should have asked jpj for the aproval to change the engine before i did the transplant. now the damage has been done, and how do i get aproval from jpj?

Here's the things that have been done to my car;
1) There has not been any modifications to the mounting.
2) Antiroll bar from a satria 1.6 has been installed (front & rear)
3) Lower arm and all from the halfcut has been installed.
4) Front and rear discbrakes.

So what is the next step that i should do? I am quite frustrated. Any 1 willing to help me can pm me here.

Regards.

ur workshop should hv lubang to help u do tis kind of things.....

u muz get approval from jpj for changed engine..otherwise they wil tow ur car back to jpj later once they found out....dun play play

 

[edwin_lcw]

yah thats the best way .......

 

[nizer]

dun think JPJ going tp pass u..JPJ onLy allow 30% increase C.C

 

[m a v [3] r i c k]

25% increase only allowed. More than that will need to get approval from Putrajaya first.

the price is about 1.5k just to make a runner upgrade from 1.3-1.8 man , aiyayai

wahlau 1.5k like that fark man. 1.3 - 2.0 still can meh? like that i should have taken a vr4 :) what is this procedure to get approval from jpj putrajaya?

jus dont mod ur exterior, remain stock car look, put a few stuffed toys in your car, with all the buddha stickers on your rear mirror.... then jpj would not kacau you..... then they wont find out. hence you still paying under RM100 road tax and enjoying 2.0 engine.... hehehhe

 

[wira_na]

delima? initially i thought what is that ar.....you are saying dilemma issit? hehehe.......

anyway,IMHO i think you should have sorted this out with your car workshop before transplanting the engine lor. Since you adi wanna berak and only wanna look for toilet, than i guessed the only thing you can do is go to runner to do it or get your workshop to help you out. Be ready to get rip-off.. :X-:

 

[Ingolstadt]

IMO, i think you shouldn't do it..... just keep quiet. They wont know unless you go and mod your exterior, rim, exhaust ... keep it stock look.....

Please be aware guys, there are runners out there faking JPJ chops. Better to go to JPJ centre to check if your car's new details are already key in to JPJ records or not before paying the runners. There has been cases where upon renewing their roadtax only the owner found out that their car has never been to any inspection :_:

...

go register...if kantoi u didnt register ur kereta will kena tahan and u masuk lokap wait for jpj to sue u...from wat u said seems like ur mod all ok except the lower arm...better use new lower arm original for ur car...and all the extra gadgets u put inside TAKE OUT ALL!!!!send for inspection and make sure your car looks pleasent for the old man!!and if i say old man means no stickers...or watsoever that will make ur car looks like want to show off...this is to make ur car pass the inspection easier...get a trustable runner...to gau tim for you...thank you...

u can always change ur engine up to 25% above ur standard engine. if its in that range...u wont need the approval from JPJ. if its more than that...yes u need their approval before changing the engine. by right it shld not be a problem if u change more than 25% up provided u upgrade ur suspension and braking system. but u know malaysian....everything is abt money. no money no talk...

 

[m a v [3] r i c k]

AJ6677,
Yep thats true. But if I'm not mistaken, that was the rules 2years ago or so. Currently, according to JPJ officer in Wangsa Maju, even Proton 1.6 are not supposed to be able to go to 2.0 since 2004. Thats what he told me when I went for my inspection :_: Or maybe he's just trying to get some quick buck from me but failed :_:

1.3 - 1.8 how can register wan? come on lar weii...what r u talking here lar...
1.3 -1.8 is just like 1.6 going to 2.0 larr wei...mana bole wan???:shades_smile:

 

[m a v [3] r i c k]

1.3 to 1.8 if I'm not mistaken, its still legal. But will be very troublesome. But 1.6 to 2.0 used to be legal. Not too sure of the rules now. I did my inspection thru my runner from 1.6 to 2.0 in June or July 2005 (forgotten) and no problem :_: Followed him to do inspections as well. :_:

 

[ahchuan]

eh.. i also face that problem be.. but my lagi worst..
my original engin is 1.5 then i plant a 1.6 inside.. 4 orginal mounting, i change 3 mounting n add another 1 new mounting. only the passenger site mounting is orginal.. somemore auto change manual..
the 1st time i find a runner, he charge me rm600 then u know wat he did to my car?? whenthe time i went inspection, FAIL due to moving orginal mounting... so he say cant kautim for me.. he charge me rm50 for the borang fee n dunno wat la... then nvm lo.. he ask me to find another runner to do it.. so i find 2nd runner, he charge me rm700, so i went to inspection again.. but when my 2nd runner check,my car has a blacklist due to moving orginal mounting.. WTF.. he said very difficult to kautim oledy..need to go putrajaya la... some said put back orginal engin to inspection again to clear my blacklist.. so he dun1 to do my business.. tat time i was totaly mad.. dunno wat to do..
but luckly... i kautim wif rm500 without car going for inspection.. one of my fren know a BIG person at the jpj.. it took me 3 months to done tat.. i saw my car garan is change to my new engine info.. but i din go to check the comp izzit my blacklist is clear n wif new engine info.. but will check this coming april due to roadtax expired.. what my fren said the BIG person din cheat me,if he cannot do,he will say.. coz my fren is close to tat guy...

ahchuan,
What car are you driving? Moving mounting points is very severe according to JPJ rules.
