Does it have a RWC? If so, go and transfer rego now. If not, wait till the conversion is complete, and you've fixed all the other issues, then go get RWC. When you're at DOT they'll change the engine number over for you |

The engine in another car? so you bought this car to take the engine out and use it elsewhere? If its as is and you don't have a safety certificate then you wont be able to, DOT will just take the plates off you, if you do have a safety certificate and the money you get back cancelling the rego is more than the stamp duty and costs to transfer it then sure why not. Otherwise DOT might get upset about trying to register an engine that is already registered to another car so it would need cancelling anyway |

Just re-read the first post and I'm a little confused. You bought the Baleno to get engine out of, I assume it's going into a Sierra? Are you talking about registering the Sierra with the Baleno motor transplanted? |
