Hey, I was wondering if anybody has gotten a j-spec to pass CA emissions, and if all that's required is slapping on my current intake/exhaust manifolds. Thanks.

i dont think u can pass smog with jspec in cali

u can always pass it illegally

Icemark

I got it to passed on test (I asked for test only just so I could see how it was running) a rebuilt motor, custom down pipe, a bonez high flow, and the stock cat back.

But that's with new plugs/wires/filters/motor/injectors/re-soldered 338 ECU.

i just got mine to pass the other day...mine's an s4 t2 with an s5 t2 jspec...but like icemark said, i replaced the plugs, wires, filters, and injectors....oh yeah, i also kept the main cat on and removed it after the test...

there is no reason why it wouldnt pass. There are NO numbers on the motor for anyone to check. For all anyone knows, its the motor that came with the car. If its stock and has working emmissions equipment, you will pass.

RETed

Zenki FC turbo J-spec motors don't have EGR valves; if the smog guy looks for one and knows it's supposed to be there, you'll fail in the spot.

So (after replacing filters etc), one could theoretically strap it in with all of the old japanese equipment and pass the sniffer? Thanks
