    thats easy...if its absolutly necessary (no other way)...put a corrolla on the rollers to do it for you ;)....just get it done under the table...usually the guys will just run another car that passes, change some info around and give you the paperwork...

    yes it is illegal...so I don't condone it...but you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes...

        then don't put a carbed engine in...throw a crate engine in...or see if there is somehow that you can be put in a hotrod status category...I've heard of guys putting there camaros in that category when you have a different engine that is in the car....that could be something that is just over here though...I dunno...

          AZ, they just put their scanner in the port and check for codes. I think they turn the gas cap to see if there is pressure too. Thats it, don't even pop the hood. Plus they have been doing 2 year emissions now on my car, just have to pay the 2 year registration which is a whopping $90 for 2 years. I think I'll keep my car.LOL My wifes 07' 3.5L Vue was $396 for 1 year. No new car for me.
          08' L76 6.0L 4X4 Chevy EXT.Cab LTZ Vortec MAX with Snug top cover, Dynomax exhaust,Hptuners& K&N intake
          96' Camaro M5 to A4 conversion, alot of mods . GT35R Turbo full suspension. Built engine

            cant do that here, already looked.. the only way you can quality for custom plates is in the car is 1945 or older.

            the only way to do it is drive less than 5,000 miles a year which would make the car exempt from emisions.. and visual also
