Guest pgill40 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 MOT tomorrow! Fingers crossed. Only thing I'm worried about is the emissions test. What will they test it as? It's an NA-T . Will it still be tested as an N/A or a TT? No cats either. Anyone else got any info/experience on emission tests on there cars?

Style Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 What year is the car? Anything pre '96 (I think) undergoes a standing idle test and emissions should be fine even without cats. I got my 96 NA-T MOT'd last week and it got passed but there was some trickery involved with getting it past emissions If you're '96 or later you may need to find a friendly MOT station Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pgill40 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 It's a 1993 mY so hopefully will be OK It's a pretty 'friendly' MOT station anyway so I'm sure it will go through emissions, he did my scooby STI last year and that involved some trickery!

Ric Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 that's why, when i have my car singled eventually im going to get a syvecs MOT map on the switch They shouldnt test it with cats anyway, but you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) Just my opinion (so is only backed up by layman's logic), but it should be tested as an NA. The V5 (I presume) will indicate it's an NA, so that's what it'll be tested as. Engine mods are so varied and so complicated that it wouldn't be a tester's job to suss out what the "nearest" standard supra spec to the one in front of him is.

Nic Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 A 1993 j-spec NA should have a non CAT test, print this out for the tester. http://imageshack.us/a/img560/9263/picture1nq.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trebor69 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Mine's now a 1jz tt but it still gets tested as an n/a (non cat test). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
