I've seen loads of ford fiestas/escorts etc with airbag flashing. They all seemed to pass tests

Will watch the vids when I get in

Its not illegal for a car not to have airbag.

Can't see it being a problem tbh

Flashing lights on dash usually fail it though. Same with most things, it will fail if it doesn't work, but won't if its not there at all!

Im gonna take it back to the same garage that I bought it from (well, I bought it privately but the owner was a mechanic at a skyline specialist) so if he doesnt pass it with the same fault ill be pretty pissed off

TBH it looks quick but id have thought 400bhp in a skyline would have been alot quicker than that.

Not sure mate, never timed it. They are quite heavy cars, but coming from a 200bhp corsa myself I know which car I would prefer to drive even if the corsa is a bit faster
