Happy days are here again!!

My beloved passed the mot! I explained that the car had no cat fitted because there is no space left to put one in due to AlanDITD's exhaust system. Took it for a good run before hand to makesure it got nice and hot.
They could'nt do a full emissions test as the VR4 isn't on their computers(shame).4 gas emission test carried out.

Mr MOT said it probably would have passed with flying colors with a cat on as levels were already pretty low.

Couple of other advisory items:
n/s/f tyre worn close to limit
Front pads wearing thin
Rear discs slightly pitted
slight corrosion to both sills,cover sills fitted-(whats this??)
o/s/f suspension has slight play in a lower suspension ball

Gas analysis

CO level @ 0rpm =0.77%
HC level @ 0rpm =56ppm
CO2 level @ 0rpm =14.09%
O2 level @ 0rpm =0.88%
LAMBDA @ 0rpm =1.02
OIL TEMP @ 0rpm =16 'c
NOx level@ 0rpm = ---ppm

Great news she passed mate...shame about the few advisories...i had a couple when i bought the car to.

The sills thing you can ignore im pretty sure, it means theres plastic covering the metal sills hiding any possible corrosion..so you "might want to remove and check" thats what it means anyway....

Rear discs i never changed so they probs need doing anyway.

The lower ball joints get done asap :)

But congrats mate top work!
