robk I've got an emissions label and tyre placard organised... 

 
Hey Rob. Where did you find an emissions label? I've just fitted a turbo engine lid to my BEAMS Bathurst and need a new one for a 3SGE, but Toyota can supply them any more. Did you make your own up?

In my case I was able to get one off Brell for my 3SGTE (he got some made with Surok's help, based on a GT4 Celica label or something like that). I think Brell might still have some more, you could talk to him or Surok about it.

Geez, when I see that I haven't posted in this thread for a month, it makes me realise how much I'm letting time get away from me in terms of getting my car finished up.
Today I finally got off my arse to chase up what's happening with my car, and I found out that my JDM doors are having intrusions bars fitted at the moment, which I'm really happy about because I was expecting to have to change to ADM doors, but I didn't want to!
I'm about to call Consulmotive to find out if my Wilwoods will fail engineering or not. If so, I'll be changing my front brakes to the DeltaV setup with Nissan callipers and Lexus rotors.
The emissions test is still the main thing that needs to be sorted, and that will be done once I get a cat fitted soon.

I saw your car yesterday when I dropped mine off for its tune. Still looking good but could do with some air in the the front driver side tyre!

It's official, my Wilwood front brakes have to go
I can deal with it though, as I'll be quite satisfied with 315mm Lexus rotors and Nissan callipers as a permanant alternative solution.
I've talked to DeltaV to organise one of their kits with dogbones, braided lines and pads, and MRC have already managed to source the callipers and rotors for me!

My doors are still having intrusion bars fitted too.

Hooray for progress!

Another update.
 
- The intrusion bars are done.
- The front brakes have been successfully converted to 315mm Lexus discs and Nissan callipers (I'll get the Wilwoods from MRC ASAP so I can sell them, as mentioned in a separate thread).
- There is now a cat fitted to the car, in the cat-back part of the exhaust rather than the dump pipe. This means that it will be getting an emissions tune ASAP.
 
Things are really moving along now
