anybody ever done this? i just read a post about doin this the legit way in CA but i know there are a variety of tricks to do to get around installing the parts that are missing on JDM motors..i mean cant everyone just use a 98usdmITR ecu and do katmans ckf trick(tap into the CKP signal) and kenji's vtec pressure trick (taps into the solenoid signal) then all you need is the purge solenoid (drill and tap the JDM mani for a fitting)and to wire up the extra o2 sensor?? i know this will not pass in CA but will it pass in less strict states like CT, NJ or NY??

What kind of car do you have? I know in CT you do not need all the "emissions" crap all it has to do is pass the sniffer and they dont care. I've had b16 swaps, b18 swaps and h22 swaps and never had any issues with emissions. **** one of my boys was running a complete obd1 swap in his 98 Hatchback. He still passed emissions. I would not worry about it. Just as long as you do not have a check engine light, idling issues, bad cat or advanced timing (at the dizzy). I just passed emissions with my 93 hatchback with a JDM h22 engine running no EVAP canister and no EGR valve while running on a chipped p28. I still passed.

i have a 2000 civic ex plannin a 98spec ITR swap..ive heard of all the tricks to get rid of the CEL's but its a lot of money and time to get and put in the oil pump and all the other stuff to get the ckf up and running and the usdm vtec solenoid unit w/pressure switch is kinda pricy...
