But, the best way to pass a vehicle is the LEGAL way, we smog K20, B20 and H22 swaps everyday. We're in 2006 now, no more shortcuts. We actually convert the vehicles to CNG/LPG, certify them with the state as flexfuel/CNG, exempt the smogs indefinitely, then uninstall the CNG/LPG conversion kits.
Forget cutting corners, why pay for a crooked smog every 2 years? if you do it right the first time, you won't have to watch your back or stress out about getting referee tickets, or even worry about any future smogs.....

This is Kenny, I've sent two of my buddies your way. They should be getting the funds soon.

Best bet is to go with an indefinite owner transferable smog exemption...... forget all about tricking and bribing smog techs......

I dropped my ride off with hazw8st peeps, he had my car back within 2 hours, smog exempted for life. hazw8st is deployed in Iraq, but his peeps hooked me up in a couple of hours. All I know is that they took me to the BAR state ref and had my car passed at the ref..... best hookup ever!

For those of you that have jdm engine swaps, make sure you make your swaps legal before a cop pops your hood, and it costs you alot of <FONT COLOR="green">$$$$$$$$</FONT>, if you know your swap isn't legal, and it cannot be bar reffed, the least you should do is get rid of the freakin fart cans, the cheap @ss trunk wings, and the tuner stickers. At least make your ride look and sound stock.... this is your ticket to avoiding getting your hood popped.

Re: (hazw8st)
I have an 01 gsr which is stock at the moment. I plan to do with just minor work (bolt ons, cams, tune, maybe p and p)... since the car is registered, how much would it cost to pass since it would require minimal effort ??

Re: (bleezfome)
smog inspector actually told me that it can pass smog.. B20 VTEC only.. not B20 motor because his explanation was if your VTEC car (integra GSR, type R, civic SI) has a blown blcok.. its legal to use a b20 block as replacement

Here's my question. If the car is registered as a CNG vehicle, aren't you illegal again if you convert it back to gasoline? And if you can do so, I'd appreciate links showing where California law states that this is legal. Assuming it is, I'd even be willing to pay to have my completely legal GSR converted, just to get out of having to deal with the bi-annual smog check.

Try using the <u><FONT COLOR="red">SEARCH</FONT></u> function next time<FONT COLOR="red">!</FONT>
Yes, the <FONT COLOR="red">B20</FONT> is a truck motor, yes, it is an illegal swap. Conventional wisdom would agree with you, however, we use propane gas to pass any engine swap in any car. There are legal ways to smog a <FONT COLOR="red">B20</FONT>. Read on......
Illegal <FONT COLOR="red">B20</FONT> swap + propane gas <FONT COLOR="red">=</FONT> Alternative Fueled Emissions compliant engine swap. Alternative fuel is the key word here, forget the motor swap, with Alternative fuel, it is all about making the swap run clean. Even if the engine swap is a turbo GSR, Standalone with ITB's, once it is run on propane, all the performance mods are now legal because you can argue that the GSR, turbo, Standalone and ITB's are needed to take advantage of propane's 110 octane rating. This is cutting edge here, just because this is a loophole that is not commonly used, doesn't mean that it is BS.
Keep in mind that, once you remove the propane and re-tune your setup to run on 91 octane pump gas, you are no longer <FONT COLOR="red">100%</FONT> legal, but wait, there's more.... here is the good part.... the BAR referee sticker in your engine compartment doesn't specify fuel. So, when Johnny law does pull you over, all they do is scratch their heads and wonder how you BAR ref'd a turbo GSR, Standalone with ITB's....
Besides BAR reffing your engine swap there is another interesting loophole that keeps Johnny Law off your back, it is called smog exemption, this exemption is a one time emissions test on propane that certifies your vehicle as an Alternative fueled vehicle and smog exempts the vehicle <u><FONT COLOR="red">FOREVER</FONT></u>, with smog exemption, you will <u><FONT COLOR="red">NEVER</FONT></u> have to smog your vehicle ever again, even when you sell it. Smog exemption is a legal loophole that smog exempts your vehicle forever, no more fooling around with shady emissions shops.
If you look hard enough, there are legal loopholes for everything. Laws, mandates, regulations and government protocols are written by attorneys with legal loopholes and/ oversights written in, that allow everyday citizens to drive, smog, register and import any vehicle ever made on the face of this planet.
For the record, smog exemption, carb exemption, and BAR reffing are 3 completely different processes, these terms cannot be interchanged. BAR reffing, by far, is the most difficult and useless certification. Smog and Carb exemption are far better than a BAR ref'd swap because a BAR ref'd swap still must undergo strict emissions testing, while the smog/carb exempted vehicle doesn't. Also, Johnny Law can ref ticket a Bar ref'd car, but not a carb exempted car. The simple definition of a carb exempted car is a car that is exempted from all carb emissions mandates. Basically, local law enforcement can pop your hood, but, because the vehicle is both smog/carb exempt, it is therefore emissions compliant regardless of what turbo
<FONT COLOR="red">k20</FONT>, GSR or <FONT COLOR="red">b18</FONT> engine swap you may have, a smog/carb exempted car can legally drive around with a fully built turbo GSR with no emissions controls, and never get a referee ticket.
You gotta pay <FONT COLOR="green">$$$$$$$$</FONT> to play.......
