need to get outta cali so i can enjoy life...dont know really where to move need some opinions...i know nevada doesnt have the smog laws cali does but how is passing inspection in both states go?

 

move to small town in oregon there is no inspection unless you live in portland salem or eugene.

 

can u get away with swaps in those cities? like having a K20 in an eg? what about import scene...is it good? i dont wanna be the only one for 80 miles lol...

 

Last I checked, there was no inspection in Eugene either. You only have a smog check if you live in the Portland Metro area or the Rogue Valley. Smog checks here consist of a tailpipe sniff at idle (for OBD1 and older cars) and for OBD2 cars, just a scan for codes. No hood popping or other inspections. Merry fsckin christmas!

From Oregon DEQ site http://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/DMV/vehicle/emissions.shtml
I don't know about an import scene since I'm too old for that ****, but I'd say anything would be an improvement over Lodi =P. Nevada is pretty much all desert unless you live up in Tahoe, but there's no work there. Oregon is better, we have trees.



Just about a year ago, I set out on the road,
Seekin my fame and fortune, lookin for a pot of gold.
Things got bad, and things got worse, I guess you will know the tune.
Oh ! lord, stuck in lodi again.

Rode in on the greyhound, Ill be walkin out if I go.
I was just passin through, must be seven months or more.
Ran out of time and money, looks like they took my friends.
Oh ! lord, Im stuck in lodi again.

The man from the magazine said I was on my way.
Somewhere I lost connections, ran out of songs to play.
I came into town, a one night stand, looks like my plans fell through
Oh ! lord, stuck in lodi again.

Mmmm...
If I only had a dollar, for evry song Ive sung.
And evry time Ive had to play while people sat there drunk.
You know, Id catch the next train back to where I live.
Oh ! lord, Im stuck in lodi again.
Oh ! lord, Im stuck in lodi again.


I need to stop drinking so early in the morning.

 

^ lol well the first part helped, and i dont really mean a import scene but like some meets thruout the year or like autox or any type of races...i dont just wanna have a civic and not beable to show it off everyonce in a while

 

yea we have meets and there is races.

 

portland internationl raceway we have night drags all the time, open 2-3 nights per week. we have shops in portland who know their stuff. plus seattle is the next big city here with a huge race scene/event/meet.

 

bend or is a nice place

 

i would say move to central oregon, just watch out for rbruce hes kinda wierd. J/K

 

I live in Medford OR (rogue valley). It's not to bad here.we have DEQ, but like it said. only a sniffer. The scene....is eh, people are here, but most dont like to meet up. There is a auto x track down here(not a cone track) and the drag strip. There's things to do. Just depends who you know.
