My wife and I are going to be moving to Columbia or the surrounding region in South Carolina sometime in June. What kind of emission testing and/or inspections will we have to go through with an RX-7?

 

Emission? what's that?

 

No idea

 

far as i know, all you need is a muffler, there are no emissions, or state inspection.

 

LMAO. I almost choked on my soda... Nope none of them pesky E-mishuns 'round here!

Good thing, considering some of the 7s we have running around here (Columbia). Let's see... 380+ WHP 10AE, 1/2 BP 13B-RE FC, 20B 10AE... Heh.

Definitely look me up when you get to town! It's always good to meet yet another rotorhead.

I tried for a while last night looking on South Carolina's laws and Department of Motor Vehicles web site looking for something. All I found was some basic requirements such as: Steering mechanism, WHEELS , and muffler. Damn, I was hoping I could get away driving my car around on the rims whichever way it wanted to go.
At any rate, there are no inspections or emissions where I live in southern Illinois either. I am glad to see I will not have to spend extra money on top of moving expenses to put crap on our cars.

 

especially the way yours smoked at the last meet!

 

no doubt, bet the tree huggin hippies would go into shock if they saw it

 

I have to live with all of the tree huggin' hippies now and let me tell you I MISS CHARLESTON!!!!!!!! Damn SMOG ****'s!!

we TOLD you!

 

It's not like I chose to move here John!! But it's not all that bad. I get pulled over about 3 times a month, but they can't ticket me since I still have my NC plates and registration.

Okay, here is another question...

Where is a good place to live for a bit while we get established? I would rather rent than just jump into buying a house. My wife will be going to USC in the Fall with their pharmacy program so money will be tight I am sure.
