LS13/14 Smog

V8 240sx? Sure! If either the chassis OR the engine is non-Nissan (i.e. SR20 in an RX-7 or LS1 in a 240sx), we've done it.

So i was curious on what some of you guys with a ls1 240sx are doing with smog. From what I have heard you can go to the dmv and tell them you have a different engine and go through some tests or checks and you get a sticker on the side of you door that says you have that engine. Just kinda through out any info. Anything will help.

Move or register it at an address where there is no smog/emissions (I've heard of people doing it with PO Boxes to somehow skirt the system.)

Also depends on if you're OBD1 or OBD2.... You might be able to pass a simple gas cap / roller sniff test if you have cats on the thing.

i wasn't sure but every state is different, didn't really think about that. I guess here in nevada you can go to the dmv and tell them you have a different (usdm) engine and (as long as its newer than you car) they will point you in the right direction.
