Moving to Cali as stated before in an earlier thread next summer. I would like to know.........what exhaust(front to back) are you guys running thats more closely to the CARB laws? I know the emission laws are less strict when living in the more densely populated areas, so moving to central Cali wont be too bad.

Thanx

100% stock.

 

Your catback should be ok as long as it's not too loud. But the header and midpipe will fail you in a heartbeat. Going to need to throw the stock stuff back on there for your SMOG. Unless you find a county that doesn't do SMOG. There are a couple of places scattered throughout NorCal like that.

 

Just PM DJDino for a hook-up.

 

ok any other suggestion. I dont have my stock stuff anymore, did away with that in 2002 after selling my 1st gen for this one. Isnt there any headers that are excempt from the CARB laws like hooker headers or something? I just purchased an aftermarket CARB cat from a company in Mass. Will be replacing my midpipe with that.

 

PM'd you back.

 

Stock looking pre-cats for emissions testing, down pipe at all other times, and a highflow cat to a dual out cat back.

Kinda the opposite. Low population area's don't have regular testing (but still requires testing on sales) and only in population areas less than 20,000 people per county. I am not aware of any areas in central CA that fit that; due to the valley. More densely populated areas have bi-annual test requirements, not les requirements.

 

didnt they up the test to 1 every 4 years? i've heard that mention somwhere

 

stock parts are easy at the junkyards in CA the cat is all you should have to buy new. If you got a cat and a air pump you can cheat alittle and pass.

 

I will have a midpipe cat and I still have my airpump working.

 

it's every two years.

 

damn, bad info then.
on another note, i found thise :

Currently still exempt from the State of California Smog Check program are:

Motorcycles - (Technology is currently being developed to inspect motorcycles ALSO! Projected Date: 04/01/07)
Diesel powered motor vehicles
Motor vehicles with two-cylinders or less
Two-stroke (two-cycle) engines(excluding rotary engine)
Engines under 819cc
1975 model-year vehicles and older
4 or 6 model years old (depending on smog check area) and newer (except for initial registration in California or change of ownership)

are we considered to have 2 cylinders or less? i dont have any, i should be exempt

 

hey retard read the one under what you highlighted! in the famous words of carlos mencia.....der de der!!!!! now fold your left hand across your right shoulder and try and lick your left ear!!!!

 

doushce, thats a different entry.

 

smurfette = NOOB!!!!!!

 

no smurette= NOONE!!!!
I ain't gotta girl...

 

Well atleast you got coolascaulk to snuggle ya!

 

you guys are crazy(lol), anyway please stay on topic!! Cant wait to meet y'all some year at a rx7 meet(maybe next summer, but probly be busy with move/settling down).

 

VERMONT...what's there to do up there? Are you on the run or what?
California's over-priced living is way too expensive...I suggest you stay -j/kidding-

 

actually Vermont is one of the most expensive state to live in. My wife from Cali and wants to move back. No theres not much to do up here, being im from Long Island NY. We visit her family twice a year and checking prices in central Ca, its cheaper to live there then here.

 

Are you serious? This bunch of belligerent ****'s stay on topic? You should be glad Wacky hasn't tried to send you naked pictures of himself yet!

 

We smog only on sale here. It's nice, I'll never have to smog again.

 

that's what you think...


maybe you forget you live in Cali, the home of retroactive nerfing and law making!

 

damn tree hugging hippies!!!!!!

 

I enjoyed driving my blown oil-seal FC around the Arcata plaza and smoking out the hippies in a way they wern't liking.
