4AGZE Emissions Test results, where to find??

I have come up with a brilliant idea!
I am trying to chase up a copy of the emissions test that would have been carried out on the 4AGZE in Japan at the time of production.
My reasoning being that who cares where the test was carried out, as long as it has been right??
This will give me something to work with when tuning my car so i know what parameters it needs to be within, and will also tell me if the engine fits in with Australian standards also.
Anyone know how or where I can get a copy of this information???

u know...
my guy who engineered my car said that it is the importers job to have those emission tests you speak of done for it to even been sold in Aust...
now i am not sure if he is playing ignorant or what .. but, my engineers cert is all good .
i did however require a emission test at the rta... for pollution and noise test like any other car...

The importers need to do that when importing a car for compliance, not for an engine though, which is my dilema. As far as I have been told, the 4agze has not ever gone through an emissions test within Australia

Mangew - Yeh its called the IM240 test, either penrith or botany. Yes its free. Im pretty sure the IM240 is just emissions.
I think if you have a cat and all the polloution gear, then it should pass. My bro's did (looking at the IM240 report in front of me)
The epa does noise testing, needs to be under 90db @ 4000rpm 
I think his failed the epa noise one though and he got his stocker put on for it (like 1 1/2") and then it passed. Not 100% though I will have to ask him.

You have to follow the emissions guidelines set by the RTA for that year of production, who cares what the Japanese levels are as they have to relevance to the Australian test, they are tested at low speed and load in Japan, where as tested at higher speed and loads here. So find the right numbers for your year, ask the EPA and tune to that with a four gas analyser.

If you can, keep the car warm or get it warm before they take it on the rolling road/dyno. Catalytic converters give lowest emissions when hot, & warm up enrichment doesn't smell too good to the EPA.
Bugman can verify that.

Wasn't it you that failed emissions cos the dude tested it while it was cold & while it had warm up enrichment on?
Please don't tell me I'm going crazy.....
