Thread: QLD mod/engineer plates.... do they mean anything in NSW

With the Qld mod plates, depending on what was done, there is every chance that a full engineering certificate could be with the car aswell.

Both of my Landys have mod plates for a number of changes, and both have engineering certificates too, from a qld approved Engineer, who is also a signatory for Dotars, nsw and vic. I would imagine in that case it may be transferable.

Mod plates can be completed by approved persons in qld without the need for an engineering certificate from a state approved signatory for commonly done modifications.

Pete,

The information I got was from both the NSW RTA and the Qld Engineer who last did the Mod plates for the vehicle. The course of action taken in my particular case was therefore sanctioned from both ends. This is why i say to make very sure to ring all parties concerned before assuming anything and letting everybody know exactly what you've got and what you want to do with it. They can and do move the goal posts frequently so take nothing for granted.

I was informed by the NSW Engineer that a new NSW rule has come in that the NSW Engineers Certificates are now only valid for 3 months ... so if you don't get Blue Slipped or clear rego in that time you are back to square one on everything AGAIN!

Ya gotta love it ...
