Sanchez Posted October 28, 2010 Author Posted October 28, 2010 Cheers guys lol Had a right nightmare, car was running like a bag of shite, so half way there pulled over as didnt think was gonna make it Something simple though, turned the fuel pressure up and it started to run better, was late for the MOT at this point....So pull into the testers to find one of my indicators was not working....which was replaced!Walked round the back of the car to find my rear licence plate had disappeared on the way.....which isnt a fail anyway apparently?Couldnt get the car on ramp as was too low, so he had a good look around it jacked up lol exhaust emissions were sky high lolPASS!!! lol@Ollie took me over a year, and thousands of pounds lol, started form the ground up, only thing i havent changed is the exterior, with additions of TOMS grill and spoiler still to go on.@Daz, that sounds like a plan mate, hope to get to as many shows as i can Quote
The_Notorious_C_A_T Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 So you got a dodgy mot then? Who cares though tbh, as long as the car is safe then it don't matter if you pass by an inch or a mile, an mot pass is an mot pass haha Quote
Sanchez Posted October 28, 2010 Author Posted October 28, 2010 Nah not dodgy lol he had a look around it, just emissions were shite as to be expected.I wouldnt drive the car if it wasnt safe, and wouldnt take a pass if he thought there was something wrong!! Quote
daz gt turbz Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 it dont have to pass an emissions though does it? just the idle test, thats all mine had to pass. Quote
Sanchez Posted October 28, 2010 Author Posted October 28, 2010 Cheers Iddy Daz, hmm dont know mate, he tested it with abit of throttle, was ok on idle.But its going to be all over the place, have a massive turbo, fuel pressure bumped up, big airfilter, the car dont have a clue whats going on lolI gave it a little boost on the way back lol when the boost came on i nearly shit myself haha and that was off the wastegate spring, wait till its 1.6 bar Quote
Sparky Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 It only needs a basic idle test god damn MOT'ers Anyway now get the bitch mapped Quote
Sanchez Posted October 28, 2010 Author Posted October 28, 2010 Yeah because of the year Sparks? Oh well its done now Yeah waiting to see when Gaz and Aze can come down Quote
daz gt turbz Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 it should defo of only had to pass an idle test, as long as its all set up right it should still pass that. does sound a weapon though, carnt wait to have a nosey round it at next years shows. Quote
Sanchez Posted October 28, 2010 Author Posted October 28, 2010 Yeah im quite happy with it, it needs a major clean inside and out.And the engine bay needs a tidy up to, looks a mess imo, gonna take all the charcoal canister etc out. Quote
Sparky Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 Not to do with age dude, there is no UK equivalent of the GT or Glanza therefore there isnt a car on the database to match it to so they cant do the emissions test other than the basic idle test, which like you said it flew through. Quote
Liam_D Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 Non Cat test should have been done mate, no UK equivalent on the Database As Sparks said! Awesome that it passed though. Quote
