does anyone have any idea's n what sort of emmison a series 2 3.8L has? wanting to swap a rb30et into a vn and mechanic said 2 find out what the differnes in pollution levels are. cheers

Be the same. Any doubts, check the ADR compliance plates on a car for an example of each. Both will list 37/00.

my understanding of engine conversions was that an older engine isnt to be fitted to a newer chassis

[hakhawk]

They have both comlpied with 37/00 and you can legally swap either motor into either car, all cars from mid? (unleaded) 1986 to 1996 or so run ADR 37/00

Thats a untrue rumour most mechanics believe, you can still find a few silly transport engineers around that believe that's the case too. Just keep ringing till you get an engineer that actualy knows the laws , they are out there

The test is only at idle anyway, should be easy.

Greenfoam is correct re. old vs new. One catch is that some vehicle manufacturers comply with upcoming standards early, perhaps to avoid an update close to a new model release, in which case the car/engine has to comply with a more stringent standard than the build date might suggest.
