Damn, if you'd mentioned you were in the ACT I crashed my 2 a couple months back and am working on fixing it and I could have lent you the quiet exhaust I had to get built to pass roadworthy and my blow off valve. I live northside so it would have been easy.

Glad you got it sorted though " />

Thanks Brandon.

Yea I'm really happy with the $250 price to get an exhaust made for me, I'm sure I will need it later on haha

Exhaust stuff sorted " />

Went to road way exhausts in Belconnen ACT and they said $500 just to rent a stock exhaust system for the MR2, went to Tuggeranong Muffler Center (In tuggeranong ACT) and they said they will make me a stock exhaust and fit it on for $250!! SCORE. Now I have a spare stock exhaust system in case of future defects.

It's a good thing ur not in SA! I do, and would suggest returning everything to stock if u needed to go thru regency. They can literally find a needle in 100 hay stacks!!

Good news guys, I found a stock blow off valve on ebay for $88. I will probably need it for later on as well.
Now I just got the exhaust to take care of :-)

Dudeman

Why don't you source a factory bov, then you wont have to worry about getting a defect notice. That is unless of course you like the noise.

What state are you in? It seems that the SA mob has the most trouble with some sinister group called 'regency'...

Hi Dudeman, I have been looking for a factory Bov and have founf a total of 2 on ebay, one sold just as I found it and the other one is owned by a guy in the us who will not ship to Australia.

I don't suppose I could borrow/ buy one from anyone here?

I am in the ACT.

the cheapest/easiest thing to do to pass RWC is to fit a block off plate.

ie: a nicely shaped piece of metal that covers the hole and ses the factory bolt hole to keep it in place, use a little bit of automotive silicon on the mounting face so it seals.

it will be fine for temporary purposes.

Could you recomend me a plum back bov that isn't too expensive that I could buy or perhaps borrow if someone has one?

TRD2000

does it really need to be factory? just plumbing it back in wont do?

Well I am not too sure. I am on ebay looking at plum back bovs and found one for $40. But it has a bit of silver piping on it. Just wondering if that will pass.

Hi Guys I am new to the forum, I have also just purchased an MR2, I got really lucky and found a rare hard top turbo one on carsales.com with 150000km for $8800.
The thing is I have to get a road worthy certificate so i can transfer it back into my name.
It currently has a custom turbo exhaust, twin stainless steel 3" system and is so LOUD! and this will deffinitly not pass the test. I also has turbo smart blow off valve which is vent to atmosphere. Would anyone be kind enough to please lend me a stock bov and a stock 1992 mr2 gt exhaust system, just so I can get the road worthy stuff done?
