It's been a while since I've posted here, so I thought I'd just toss up the latest event with my VR-4. I took her to the emissions place this past Saturday and for once I actually have a VR-4 that has passed on the first try!
![]() .....................Reading......Allowed 2,500 RPM HC ppm...........15.............220 CO%...............0.00..........1.20 max CO+COČ..........14.1...........6.0 min Idle HC ppm...........18.............220 CO%...............0.00..........1.20 max CO+COČ..........13.6...........6.0 min I can't believe it went so well for a change. But, since I still have the stock DP on it along with the EGR in place and the stock injectors leaned out a few % with the SAFC, I guess I had it in the bag. I was out of gas after the test so I stopped by to fill it up. The pump shut off just shy of $70. Ouch. I did the math versus the tripometer and found I got an awesome 16.7 MPG on that tank of gas (but... I was still on that same tank of gas when I was running with that single turbo RX7 a while back... that's where my MPGs went). So I get home to compare the emission results sheet from last year to this one... and that is when I notice. I have only driven this car 2,166 miles since the last inspection. I'm surprised the battery is still good in it. Here's to next year. Maybe I can keep below 2,000 additional miles before the next inspection. It's a '94 with 78,259 miles on it. Too bad the resell value on these cars is terrible, I'm slowly creating a collector's item.

When I bought my 91 Stealth R/T a couple months ago, it had been sitting at a local shop for a while, and before that it was in a lot behind a pawn shop. All I did was go put some Amoco Ultimate in the tank and it passed on the first try. Amazing for such and old car that had been collecting dust, huh? Goes to show how well the Japanese built these things.
