You should refuse to test ;) Refusal to test: g. A proper examination cannot be carried out because any door, tailgate, boot, engine cover, fuel cap or other device designed to be readily opened cannot be readily opened. Paul

Does NOS Count
LOL! Who cares?! Quote what ever you want if your engine has been dynoed! Its like saying dont quote peak power as how many times do you use full throttle :tt2: At the end of the day when your in front cos you used NOS its no good the other person saying "well, he didnt really win cos he used NOS" :rofl: Oh - & NOS is not a fuel, it is simply a way of getting a more oxygen rich fill in the cylinder to burn the same petrol thats in your tank! A bit like turbos really ;)

New topless Nissan
its ok I guess - no where near as nice as the coupe IMO! Am surprised they went for a soft top - folding hard tops look so much better IMO & far more modern (& dont give me no weight saving BS for a soft top LOL!) :hammer:
-
recirc/bov/bungs sizes needed please :D who knows?
A while ago the USA guys were playing with uprated internals for the recirc valves to hold higher boost giving the benefits of a recirc valve over dump valves (like no farty type noise every time you lift off the throttle!) Any ideas if this is still a possibility - did start looking into it before the zed got took off the road! :hammer:

MOT Failure : New discs needed
It will depend on the wheels tho - my 17" rims have the spokes about 5mm away from the calipers! No way bigger discs will fit! :crying: Check the clearance on the spokes to the calipers!

AIV removal
Well the solenoids just open the AIV valves under the wheelarch that then allow air in from the tanks - was just expecting some sort of pressure system really like we have on Mercs!! Still - all gone now allong with the PRVR too! :thumbup1: lost about 100m of vacuum pipe I reckon LOL :D
-
AIV removal
ok - stand down! Should have looked a little harder :oops: The pipe in question just goes through the inner wing to atmosphere! :thumbup: All ripped out now :yes: Just doesnt make sense where people say it can affect the idle on a standard ECU as it doesnt even link into the intake - which is what I was assuming LOL!

Man Made Climate Change - A Proven Fraud!
Dont forget we are talking about 2 different gasses here! The MOT test does not check CO2 emissions! It only tests CO! CO (carbon monoxide) is formed during combustion & is relatively low (0.3% or lower on modern cars) CO2 (carbon dioxide) is a by product of any combustion & will be quite high! (14% or so) Actually the better the fuel is burning the higher this will be!! :blink: Making matters worse is the fact that the cats on a vehicle convert CO & HC's into CO2 :clap: Paul
