Well i went to my old highschool and ask my teacher to check. The first code that came out yesterday was the TPS, i re plugged it and he cleared the code. The engine light then came on like 5 mins later and today i went back to check and now the code that came up was the IAC, i unplugged it becuz i was idling the rpm so maybe it just that but it plug back in and he cleared the code and then CEL havent came on yet.

one question, my motor is from a 2000 gsr and the shell is a 96 gsr shell. Would i need to get it ref?

Yea i was, i followed this one guide i found on the net and it told me that wen i do it i need to unplug the IAC plug and the tube on top of the manifold. By ref i mean getting it state ref, because the motor is a 2000 gsr (obd2b) and the shell is a 1996 gsr 4 door (obd2a). Would i need to state ref it so i can smog? or just go straight to do smog?
