LOL i can see it now, I\'d have five pedals in the footwell, the handbrake in the boot, and no headlights!
I don\'t think assembling a car is within my capabilities, anyway its all academic as i can\'t afford either a Spirit or an £80,000 skyline! still, here\'s hoping.

Quote from: TonyBlairI like the idea of dis-mantling a spirit-R and sending it over in boxes. Would be fun putting it back together... like a 20,000 piece jigsaw, but more rewarding when you\'re done.  ;)

LOL .. this is a grand idea but i cant see i working.  :o  For one how will they know u have gone to all this trouble. They will know its an rx-7 and the spirt R plate inside the engine bay with production number may well give it away :yes .
LOL :guinness

If you got cash i bet i could find ya one. Every thing is for sale at the right price

Not that I could afford a new car, but... I thought I\'d enquire a bit further into getting a model report for a late RX7. Below is the response from //www.modelreports.com.

[INDENT]I am afraid that we do not have the Model Report you require to rent out, also unfortunately we will not be doing it in the future. You can ring VOSA (01792 458888) they can supply more information on companies who also sell Model Reports, we may be the largest company, but we are not the only ones who sell model reports.
 
If no luck at VOSA apply to Millbrook (01525 408253) for a one off noise and emission, if it passes though tests then yes it can go ahead and get ESVAed, then if all goes well it can be registered and you will be able to drive it in the UK.[/INDENT]

There must be a easy loop-hole in the system somewhere.  :reallymad

Couldnt you just get a really quiet hybrid zorst made by one of the various companies around the uk, somthing with a huge cat that gives almost no emmisions and makes almost no noise. Then just put ur own back on once passed?  :confused: . I\'m sure it will work. If not im going to work esva and u ill pass evrything  :D . Best way to pimp the system really  :spank

There will be a model report soon (I hope)
We have been working on it for nearly 1 year now & are nearly there.
We have passed on CO, & HC  However NOx is still a little high.
I will keep the forum informed of progress

From memory on one of your posts earlier in the year, you were using a 98 car? You were unsure if the model report on that year could be used for cars newer than the one you were working on.

Is this still the case, or do you now think the model report (if/when it gets approved) can be used for post 99spec FDs?

Once we get the report for FD3S 4***** it will then be easy to get the report for the later cars.
There has been far too much effort put into this for the project to fail!!!!!
