Alright i got a ref ticket yesterday with my new b17 just swapped in my eg.
i got the ticket b.c i didnt have the breather hose that connects my valve cover to my intake
im not sure what i should do. I currently have this setup
B17 freshly rebuilt with p30 (jdmb16a) pistons and jdm b16 head Everything is pretty much stock besides the AEM CAI but thats all and also a test pipe no cat
only problem is that i dont have a knock sensor nor a o2 sensor b.c i was about to get it tuned next week and they were going to be erased. Now im screwed.
any ideas?

 

go back to nearly stock and get it BAR legal or u can "sell" the car to a friend and buy it back tell the judge you sold it not much they can do about that

 

just pay it and forget about it..if u tell the judge u sold the car without proof of smog he will still make u pay for the ticket (personal experience)

 

doesnt my car get flagged or something
if i just pay it?

 

California laws are gaaaaaaaay. good luck for you man

 

or you can just gimme your b17
haha wats up its mike

 

dang..that sucks living in cali! goodluck my friend

 

Sorry to hear that. I wonder if this is what's to come for the rest of us if Obama's new 35mpg by 2016 goes into effect.

I would guess it's better for most of you in CA to run cat's, really how power are you really loosing.

You can buy a plug in fitting for the intake pipe, buy a small piece of hose and fix the one issue.

Buy a high flow cat and "bolt" it on. Make the car legal.

 

hahah whats up mike!
but yea 1992 its not so easy
i gotta do alot of converting to pass ****
i think im gonna sell it and buy a new car
we'll see how much bail is

 

for this ticket it is usually $365 unless u got other tickets as well like mod exhaust or tint windows then it will be more..

 

Just make sure all the smog for the b17 is hooked up and the motor is newer then the car. After you get this stuff on call the 800 number and make the appointment. Don’t get caught driving the car until you get if fixed they can tow the car. Also if you don’t fix the problems, and pay the fine and get caught again you could get arrested. if you or anyone you know ever dose a swap they can call the 800 number and the ref will tell you what you need to fix before the police stop you.

 

i love livin in pennsylvania, i dont have to worry about none of that, all i gotta do is go to a shop where they do inspections throw him 100 bam slap on the stickers and call it a year

 

DA tell me where im suppose to find a p61 for my engine?

damm that sucks f**k the chp

 

wow, cali sux. you should move.

 

o yea **** thattttt

 

lol same with rhode island. but its 2 years

 

Sadly to say there is not much you could do. You wont pass BAR with that motor because its older. Best bet to do is get a D series and throw it in there and take that to the ref. Then the ticket can become dismissed when you pass ref. Was pictures taken when they were giving you the ticket? If you want more info PM me. But other then that you could try just paying the fine.

 

well it has the possibility of passing bar cause i have a 92 cx
but the main problem is that im not trying to spend $300-400 on a ecu for the thing
i can convert everything over on the head but for the ecu im ****ed

 

what year is the b17? as long as it is newer then the car and have all the smog for that motor hooked up it should pass the bar.
