nah of course not. how could a change in charge temperature, density and oxygen composition possibly change the vehicle emmisions? :)

The change in temperature and density will be measured by the air mass meter(s), and the ECU will use this signal to set injector pulse. If everything's working well it should not affect emissions much, if at all.

Change in oxygen composition? Do you mean change the oxygen content of air? By what process could that occur??

For the original poster - take it to a tuner and ask for an emissions legal tune ;-) You will need to do different things depending on which exhaust gases are too high, so get an emissions check from the RTA to give you a baseline starting point.

indeed. change anything and you can expect the emissions to get worse - do you think nissan's engineers are idiots?

Not at all. I suspect they have built the system to be emissions legal at many different intake temps.

I made the assumption that a bigger intercooler would be analogous to a lower ambient temperature. I may well be full of crap as i have no first hand experience, but the reasoning behind "change anything and you can expect the emissions to get worse" seems pretty weak. Care to elaborate on why? Is it because the intercooler changes the oxygen composition ;-)

I guarantee adding an intercooler 4 or 5 times the size of the o.e.m component will change the emissions from the factory recorded specs.

Stating otherwise is just showing your ignorance of the facts :D

Cheers :happy:

if this is true how come, to get a intercooler enginered there's no need to do a emissions test?you think if it changed emissions to much engineers would have to get them passed by the rta??????

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
