1990 Nissan 300ZX. It did not pass smog check in HC, CO, and NO.

I went to do my smog check for my car and the results were Gross Polluter. I don't know what is wrong with the car. There is a little bit of oil under the car, but it's not enough for it to drip onto my driveway. There never is any black/white smoke coming out from the tail pipe and the engine temperature is always stable and where it should be. I also did the oil change before i took it in to do the smog check. I do have an after market exhaust, but it has a catalytic converter on it and a muffler.
