Do you only get defected for aftermarket kits?

What about gtrs and evos and stis..

They have pretty big fmic already.

they are standard fitment from factory, therefore meeting emission's level's as per manufacture... short answear is its A ok!

I got pulled up on monday.

HWP said I will be getting a letter for exhuast and pod.

Need to go to a dedicated inspection station for them to take photos, send them to the EPA and compare to pictures they have of standard car.

I also have fmic and the dude at the inspection station said I need everything returned to stock or proof it complies with ADR's.

Without getting a emission test, is there anything on the net/or here that states that front mounts are adr compliant. I dont have factory smic, and its a last resort to scrabble around getting all the items.

I knew you would get done after i first seen your car on the other forum and you living in campbelltown. And i bet you got done there too, right? HWP are the worst there. I hate going to my mates house at st andrews just wondering if ill get home without being defected. My mate lives around the corner from the cop shop and is on first name basis with one of the cops there now. Hes been done numerous times.

IM240 will test 4 things(correct me if i'm wrong)

THC- total hydrocarbons

CO- Carbon Monoxides

CO2 - Carbon Dioxides

NOx - Oxides of Nitrogen

Some of you other guys may be able to recall the levels that these should be at to pass.

The hydrocarbons is done by taking a reading inside a sealed room to see if you car is leaking fuel vapour, so make sure your carbon canistor is connected correctly, the other three are exhaust readings.

Cheers guys.

      Shifting questions

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone

      Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.

      I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.

      I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?

      I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
