When i had to change a motor in a ute i had all i had to was get a blue slip and then take that to the RTA.

Easy as long as the motors been installed properly

TS ASTRA Z22SE 4 Cyl Ecotech Engines

Brand New Crate Z22SE Motors
Z22SE 4 Cyliner Ecotech engine.
Please note: will suit……
TS Astra 99-01
TS Astra 02-04
TT Zafira 2001-2005
ZC Vecta 2003-2005

$3,290.00


EDIT - Just realised you wanted advice on changing VIN etc, not after a price (ill leave this information there because it might be useful for someone else).

Changing the engine is usually just a case of taking paperwork into vicroads and paying a small fee. Its pretty straight forward.

Might pay to give the insurance company a call as well.

Cheers

Yeah thats cool. I thought about deleting it, but you cant really have too much information in a thread so i figure its better to leave it for anyone else reading it down the track.

Thats not a bad price actually, you've done well.

Hi i just did this . All you need to do is go and get a blue Slip .And as long as it is the same displacement you shouldnt have a problem . I didnt need to go to the rta as they do it on the computer cost about $28 bucks. The updated rego papers with the new engine came in the mail hope this helps

Cheers
