JDM MOTORS CAN BE LEGAL AS LONG AS:
1. The engine is the same year as car or newer.
2. The ECU is a USDM and not JDM.
3. NO JDM wiring harness, it must be USDM.
4. The intake must be the original USDM air box, OR an intake that has a C.A.R.B sticker that is STRICTLY for the swapped motor. (Example: an AEM CAI for a GSR with a GSR motor will PASS, a AEM CAI for a Type R with a GSR motor will NOT pass)
5. The exhaust manifold MUST BE USDM, and if it is not O.E. then it must have a C.A.R.B sticker that matches the motor. I asked the ref. if they could really tell the difference between a stock USDM and JDM exhaust manifold, and he said that they have pictures for everything, and there are slight differences.
6. No adjustable FPR's, not unless it has a C.A.R.B. sticker.
7. Must have a catalytic converter hooked up (this one is pretty obvious).
8. All USDM O.E. smog equipment MUST be hooked up and working properly!

Engine Changes
Engine changes are legal as long as the following requirements are met to ensure that the change does not increase pollution from the vehicle:
*The engine must be the same year or newer than the vehicle.
-The engine must be from the same type of vehicle (passenger car, light-duty truck, heavy- duty truck, etc.) based on gross vehicle weight.
-If the vehicle is a California certified vehicle then the engine must also be a California certified engine.
-All emissions control equipment must remain on the installed engine.
-After an engine change, vehicles must first be inspected by a state referee station. The vehicle will be inspected to ensure that all the equipment required is in place, and vehicle will be emissions tested subject to the specifications of the installed engine.
