does JPJ really allow direct engine transplant from 1.3 to 1.8??

[akubudakshahalam]

hi to all ZTH forumers,
i sudah pening kepala think about this.i would like to buy my 1st car.the problem is the car ori body is satria 1.3 and now already convert engine to Satria GTI 1.8.the seller said that he got the endorsement letter from JPJ and also he said have contact.i don't really mind about that.

what i really mind that,will JPJ sita my car if i kena tahan in road block? i afraid that the seller endorse letter is the one that pay undertable punya.really got letter,but i myself dunno if the letter sure can pass JPJ roadblock.

so its not a myth onli that JPJ does allow direct transplant from 1.3 to 1.8.i thought my brother lie to me because he tell me not to buy this kind of car because if got road block i surely 100 percent kena tahan.thanks for the info bro liz@rd.

bro liz@rd u know how much it cost for the inspection?

 

[khoyos]

sure can pass la. even if u do urself also can pass. but just make sure ur car is up to jpj specifications. no tinted agung, no weird bodykit, no cannon exhaust etc etc. sure can pass.

 

[liz@rd]

ok i've got the info fr my friend alrdy

1st u go putrajaya jpj 2 apply for 1.3-1.8
2nd they will issue u a form
3rd take that form and go to jpj negeri for inspection for brakes and suspension
4th if "pass" take that form back to putrajaya
5th then they will issue u a form to go puspakom for inspection
6th if "pass" then u go renew ur road tax and insurance

see that's the hassle to go through if u wanna do it urself ...

cost for puspakom inspection = rm40
cost for jpj negeri inspection = FOC
cost for road tax = rm200++ additional for previous road tax
cost for time , tol and petrol = priceless

well he got everything settled in a month and below rm500

p/s : ur brother said that in good faith as u must understand the hassle of going up and down , provided if u pass everything at 1 time , which u wont , coz my fren went up and down twice i think ... so good luck bro ... and if i miss out anything out there , other sifu can add on ...

i think if can change name sure have endorsed 1.

 

[contreasjun27]

basically to be honest 1.3-1.8 is illegal i think...the most u can go is 1.6 if not mistaken...

I thought is on 25% enlarge ur displacement is allow!?!?
1.3 to 1.8 is more that 25% liao!!!

 

[calvin9683]

if the car had been endorsed a few yrs back with 1.8 roadtax then shouldnt b a prob edi.....
there's soooo many 1.3chassis wif evo engine running around....all done the conversion n endorsement before JPJ set this kindda limits......

 

[akubudakshahalam]

i agree with this,i wish good luck to everyone who already done with the engine transplant.

nowaday,many many rules are made though some of them are ridiculous one.

now i have read the forum and all the replies.

as far as i know, if the car was already endorsed and the geran kereta written wit the gti 1.8 engine which shud be 4g93p XXXX something, means it is approved and there wil be no problem after that...

so u better check wit the owner and see the geran...look for Engine Code and displacement then u wil know whether it is OK or NO..

and make sure wat's has been written on the geran is same as wat is written on your block, including the chasis number..

regarding road block, they wil first check your geran whether is same as wat is inside the engine bay or not...even if let's say a satria 1.3 chasis wit V6 inside, and the geran stated tat the engine is a V6 engine, u won't be kena kacau...unless your exhaust is loud, HID, black tinted and so on..

 

[JackWaiKit]

I believe 1.3 can go futher until 2.0 since yr below2002/2003(not sure but maybe more earlier)...
after the time frame, JPJ is only allow 25% ungrade of displacement...
I still remember, my fren 1.3 converted to 1.6 & then convert to 1.8 on year 2004...Can't endorse

And now days...,25% is only allow below 1800cc...
Which mean if u have a 1800cc, still can't convert to evo!!!

if yr car juz converted to 1.8 from a 1.3 body, the puspakom cannot pass it....yr car will be blacklisted from their system which linked to jpj...you will have difficulty renewing road tax and if u r stopped at road block, once they key in yr plate no, u might be "tahan".....

w.e.f july 2005/06, not sure which year....only can upgrade from 1.3 max to 1.6.....

unless it was endorsed before 2005, then its legal already....
my 2cents...

 

[4G15NA]

wow...now only 2.5%? is it..last time as i know 30% from original engine cc..it will takes from 1.5 can convert to 1.8..if 25%..only can fit with 1.6 engine or 1.7..in that case..only certain car can do the conversion..

 

[AXXeLL]

dude, this is malaysia... semua pun boleh, as long as you have cash to do the talkings for you. So far i've even read the official letter from JPJ stating that any Proton cars apart from Perdana can NEVER exceed the limit of 1.8 and Evo engines are a big No No!...

but recently a friend of mine converted to a Evo 2.0L Turbo... and it was PASSED with flying colours passing thru JPJ. All this was done even without bringing the car to Puspakom!! surprising?
It all boils down to how much of a bomb you are willing to spend for the runner to do the dirty job for you. And by the way, the offical letters are all genuine...
Have a Nice Day.

 

[slipar]

search through the JPJ website..
find out that conversion exceed 25% also can..
under category 3..
-->http://portal.jpj.gov.my/v5/index.php/en/Engine-conversion-application-guide/Type-of-Application but sure can not go 2.0L except perdana chasis..
