If you want to get it legit. then you'll have to tell them that it is an 18rg, and then you'll have to get a roadworthy test (has bugger all to do with the engine conversion, but they thought they might as well do it while were inspecting the conversion.

Our emissions crap was not working when we took it through, but it looked completeish.

Just an quick note that it may infact be possible to get your engine to pass emmissions.
Ours passed while it was almost completely undrivable (running extremely rich when anywhere but idle, and it also didn't like idling on four cylinders all the time.

Sprints carby and fuel injection centre did our tuning to pass emissions reg. and it seemed to work.
They are most happy and it costs less if you balance the carbies and do a rough tune yourself to start with.

a few things are possible, it just depends on how legal you want to be and, as Andrew said, how much you value your insurance.

One option is to attach an air pump to your engine and pump fresh air into your exhaust, this might help you pass emissions test, after all, Toyota did it from the factory for this very reason.
