So anyone have any ideas on what I am going to need to do to get this engine barred?

I just dont want to have to go through any hassle with the cops around here, first honda and ive been pulled over ohhhh 7 times?
Apparently being a 20 yearold white boy makes you look like a car theif. At least they are looking out?

Its a second gen ZC..
As for mods on the car, I have AEM Short ram, DC sport headers (both carb) HKS 2.5 exhaust (Need a cat :D) stage 2 clutch, lightened flywheel..
Car is a 1990 honda civic SI.

 

you can't bar a zc dohc...get yourself a zc sohc and use it as a legal jdm replacement motor equivalent to a d16a6...no bar sticker needed...!!!

 

If you go this way ^ then sell me your dohc Zc goodies

 

BiG ChOr!Zo, Think I could still get it smogged if I threw on a cat?

I either need to sell this car and get it off my hands or figure a way to make it not so suspicious.. Any ideas?

Sleeper exhaust already on
Not to low

 

Im going through the exact same thing you are. Now I havent tried to bar mine yet but i've heard of people saying that its a zc block with a b16 or d16a8/9 integra head and passing at the smog ref. (lets hope for both our sake)

 

yes you can pass a smog check with a zc sohc legally at any regular or test only center...!!!

 

Think if I just took the car to the regular mom and pop smog station they would notice the engine block?
hah x_x

Its DOHC

 

if its a zc dohc yes it will pass smog if you maintain it correctly...the problem lies if you get your hood popped and sent to the ref for inspection then you are SOL...if i was you i would sell the zc dohc and buy a zc sohc and run it as is...!!!

 

So the mom and pop shops wont question the ZC and if they do, just say its a d16?

Its my DD, so I am quite sure I wont get my hood pop'd.
No reasonable cause, especially with the sleeper exhaust.

Right?

Anything I can say to an officer who wants me to pop my hood?
What for officer?
What is your reasonable suspicion?

 

i already gave you solid advice on what to do...if you want to stay on your current zc dohc path then sorry i have nothing else to ad...!!!

 

BiG ChOr!Zo, thank you for the advice.
