i made friends with a local midas shop. the manager there hooked me up last year and this year too.


it was pretty funny cause i droped the car off with the manager, but when i picked it up, he already left. the guy ringing me up said " man, rich (manager) really let u slide on that emissions." lol

my cousin was passed with an integra gsr motor in a 1993 hatch...and paid $250...the year after that he wouldn't do it because someone snitched on the owner of the shop (it was more like a sting operation)...
yeah. you cant be telling everyone of ur friends saying "hey go here hell pass you" then word gets out and people ruin it.

My sister did that with her POS neon, needed rotors, pads and drums and shoes. Later, she rear-ended someone.

Let's just say she learned her lesson.

wait... the 3sgte won't pass inspection???

~Daniel~ No Longer Celica Owner.. moved on to a 03 WRX-EJ207
a stock usdm 3sgte should have no problems at all.
but lagos is modded ect. and a jdm 3sgte has no egr system.
so its possible to fail easier.

what about a turbo 5s.......
what do they even check for??
Congrats Lagos.
It's funny how it is the same for many countries. Here in Russia you need to pass technical inspection each year for it to be road legal. It's kinda hard doing that on a JDM with lights working differently and all the other little stuff.
But $100 plus the right person - and you get your sticker delivered to your door biggrin.gif
nice bro...i need my inspection sticker soon also. but i gotta friend who has an uncle who will hook me up with one...but i gutta dish out like 150 i think.

bboy

..(formerly daily driven) 3S-GTE powered celica currently set @ 12psi..
No tests in my area. Some times it pays to live in the sticks.

JDM guy made me do it.
no emissions testing here... we just need to get our cars safetied... which includes checking if seat belts work, all lights/signals, tires, brakes, suspension, etc.... the simple stuff! oh and no body holes (rust) that one is pretty common out here because of all the sand/salt they use on the roads in winter. biggrin.gif

congrats though Lagos! your car is awesome.
yea i was wondering what everyone was talking abotu cause ive never had to do ne kind of inspections (not that im hiding ne thing) but still i felt left out lol but i didnt know some states did that and some didnt.
i feel bad for you guys in the States...thouse stickers r ugly..lol. Up here, all we get is a small sticker thats about 2inches wide n 1 inch tall that goes onto your rear licence plate.
Lagos -- i was reading on the first page and it sounded like without ur hook up you wouldnt have passeed emissions - is this correct? why is that!

and why do you guys have stickers on ur windows?? we have ours on our license plates. it looks like ur in the military with ur window ones

Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City
I'll sell mine out of the celi. Good til march 06 :-P

I dont think they even did emissions when I took mine for inspection. Horn, lights, brakes, ..... bald tires, exhaust leaks, done.

Hes like, just go get the tires replaced, and heres your sticker.

If anyone needs interior stuff, etc, I'm parting whats left of my celi out. Just ask.
I guess I am lucky here in New Mexico. We have no emissions tests, safety, etc. Good thing too, I am running open headers on my '87 celica. If they had something like that here, 3/4ths of the people would fail lol. Gratz Lagos, and keep on boosting smile.gif

Blah, PA tags. I guess it's so people can't steal your stickers.

I've heard of people scanning some, photo shopping them and taping them in their windshield with scotch tape rolleyes.gif
