State road authorities out-source vehicle engineering here in Australia. I suspect one of these accredited engineers would need to inspect and pass your vehicle before a registration authority would give it rego. I dont think you want to be chopping up an SPF - if it were me and only for three years, I'd be storing your baby in the US and getting your hands on something temporary while here in Oz.

It will be worth it when you move back.
