Unlike Scotland there are plenty of V8's in WA so you should be able change out that SBC for a propper engine without any dramas. Can probably swap a couple of your haggis' stash (that you got past customs) to some locals.

Fortunately for you Perth seems to be a major centre for the Scottish diaspora so you'll have relatively little trouble with the language

I should however caution you not to drive anything to valuable until you get used to the attire the native girls there get around in - especially in the summer months. You're going to love Perth
