Hey guys just wanted to know if anybody could inform me on what ICV rego is and how do you get it. I havent been able to find to much info on it in the forum so any info would be apprecited.

cheers guys

I just posted this in the rotary post too;

"an ICV is an individually constructed vehicle. There is a lot of work involved, as you need to make the car meet modern ADR requirements. The hardest part is the engine emissions requirement, but if you use and engine ecu from a current spec engine then you don't have to get it tested.

Then once the car is ready you have to write a rather large report showing how the car complies with all the rules, and ADR requirements. And then you need an approval engineer to sign off on it all to approve it.

Read the LO section of the NCOP and you'll get some idea of what needs to be done. "

Thanks heaps WeS

As someone who is being driven crazy by my need to comply with the ICV rules. I have only one thing to say to you.

Do all that you can to avoid getting involved with an ICV.

As far as I can ascertain, if you modify the chassis/pan you will be building an ICV, so don't change the pan. Fix it but leave it standard. Then you are building a Modified Production Vehicle and you will avoid a lot of expensive grief.

Start by buying a CoP for your state

But...what he said. Every component of an ICV must be assessed and 'engineered' from brake bolts to wiper sweep area

stick with an MPV approval!
