You are right about the NOX.
I was referring to how a lot of the GTRs in Aus run e85, starting from way back in 2006 and passing the 5 gases test on cars with 400kw at all wheels.
Unless it's been proven to not pass, and maybe so due to different requirements for cars of different era, I can only go by my own experience so far.
