The conference is also on Utube

These links were sent to me via the 55 56 57 Chev Club

The brochure, note the bottom of page 2,
Quote.
“Note: There are no changes to NSW vehicle standards under the VSCCS”

this link is to contact the certifiers under the new inspection scheme.

And various Q & A’s that should put some Myths to rest.

I had a little to do with
John Varetimidis who is one of the Licensed Certifiers
I found him helpful and more importantly professional
I would not hesitate to recommend him.

"What happens if I have a certificate from the old scheme (ECS)?"

If you have already presented your Engineering Certification Scheme (ECS) certificate to RMS (formerly known as the RTA), it will not be affected by the introduction of the VSCCS. You do not need to do anything.

Is an already registered ECS complianced vehicle automatically covered?

How do you find out? Ring the RMS I guess?

I had a quick read over the changes mind you
I dont do mods myself.
If your vehicle is currently registered then theres no problem
If you make further changes from that registration like
running gear mods breaks tyres etc away from your initial
registration then you will need certifying that it complies.and
get the new certificate with your mod changes made.
Ring a listed certifier for more info.
Id hate to buy a highly moded registered vehicle right now
the registration transfer could get messy meaning cant sell it.
without the vehicle being recertified legal! with a road worthy certificate from a approved certifier before purchase.

just my 5 cents worth..cheers zed o six

coradict72
makes an interesting point
It may be that we are going to go down the road
similar to QLD in that you have to have a vehicle inspected before selling it
or in the case of a modified vehicle perhaps re certified in the new owners name.
Interesting times ahead.
