I have a motor and transmission with no vin on either!
Will i run into problems when i try to legally certify that motor
And transmission to my vehicle?

I've already spoken to the police, dmv and chp. They all clearly
Told me that it couldn't be proven that the motor and trans i bought is stolen..
So does that mean i can still have it Bar'd??

My car is a 97 accord and the motor is h22a4, m2a4 trans

 

yup... you can't get it bard your fucked.

 

if the vins were ripped off most likely its stolen

 

**** my life.....

This makes me feel like ditching my project

 

But why do jdm (vin less) motors get a pass?
The jdm motor could be stolen as well...

 

that i know to get a jdm barred you need proof of purchase that's what the homie had to do

 

Please, people. If you don't know what you're talking about, don't give out information.

It would be better not to give out any information than to give out bad information.

Furthermore, only certain engines have vin numbers, all older ones do not. If the engine doesn't have a vin then OBVIOUSLY it's safe to say you will have no problems whatsoever bar'ing it.

They do not look up any information on the engine except the type it is. The police only cares about chassis. You shoulda listened carefully to what they said.

 

It is not the referees concern to verify if a component is stolen, they mearly care that the parts are within compliance for testing purposes.

 

But the h22a4 was from 97-01 prelude and the one i bought is a 2000 because the head is stamped
99'.

Vins are from 96 and up if i am not mistaken?

 

You sure mad mike? I hear all these different things.
Some people say that the refs call the cops and cars.get
Impounded..

 

Let's make this easy.
Locate your local Referee/BAR station and find out what they do and what they want. Done.

 

some people only want to hear what they want to hear, mike

 

I'm a sucka sometimes...

 

lol....I'm glad the ref didn't call the cops on me when I got my car bar'ed

 

Lucky bitch! Haha.
Im over here depressed and contemplating selling my swap
And leaving the Honda scene forever lol

 

it should be obvious that im being sarcastic...as has been said before they dont care where the engine came ftom just what it is
