Ok, The 95 sc300 (2jzge) failed really bad the first time around.
Test 1: Results / Allowed
HC .94 / .80
CO 2.37 / 12.00
NOX 4.43 / 2.00

I had 2 new magnaflow cats welded in and re-test.
Test 2:
HC .20 / .80
CO 3.23 / 12.00
NOX 2.21 / 2.00 (ahhhh .2!)

Checked the timing and it was advanced, set timing to stock as recommended by the internet for re-test.
Test 3:
HC .32 / .80
CO .70 / 12.00
NOX 8.21 /2.00 (aaahhhh!!!)

Now my nox is going the wrong way fast. It was actually cooler and rainy outside though, I drove for an hour prior to the test, waited maybe 3 minutes at the test facility before my test, I reved the motor the whole time.

In This Graph they printed for me shows I am failing NOX bad right at the start then it gets better. Would I assume its the weather and I wasn't hot enough because of the cold/rain? Should I wait and retest when its hot out again or should I look at something as the cause?

I am thinking maybe O2 sensors Or EGR but what else? I don't want to shotgun parts at this thing, the testing fees are killing me and now it's past the registration due date also.
