Have a chat to Ben wright he works in this field.
below is an email from Ben on this topic.
The basic engine/suspension conversion cost is about $400, put on top of that a brake test, about $150, if you budgeted around $600, you'd be alright.
As far as emmisions go though, your're running stright gas right? If so, I dont think you need to do an emmisions test for ADR 27 compliance, I cant remember all the bloody rules. If on petrol, then you're in trouble. Another $600 or so for emmisions test. |
