I forsee NJ taking the ROTM crown back for next month.. = ) good luck man..

and its MUCH easier to pass inspection wiht

i STRONGLY dsiagree... an O2 sensor is part of your cars emision monitoring equipment.. i THINK you will totaly fail at a legit inspection facility..

 

[Blowncivic1320]

i dont think OBD1 has 02 sensors...or am i wrong?

You know you got my vote.

just one 02 sensor

Do you have any track or dyno resluts since you turbo'd?

The blue with blacked out headlights flows VERY smooth. good choice in color, good choice in engine mods.

well thats the problem.. your car a 96-98 honda civic comes with 2 O2 sensors... if they are considered part of the emission control s**t you can NOT remove them.. ALSO in NJ they now check that the ECU is in ready mode(on OBD2 cars), and has no CEL.. your car acording to DMV is OBD2 so i think you might have just made it VERY hard for you to pass REAL inspection.. i believe they even plug the car in now.. when they plug into your car it will not jive with the OBD1 ecu and you will FAIL...again im NOT an inspection official.. this is just my understanding of inspection law... i also called the state police the other day about motors older than the car itself.. and the person i spoke to said he was pretty confident that the only thing in NJ is that the vehicle must have all the same emision stuff in place that came stock with the car.. meaning i COULD put a 96 engine in my car as long as it still had all the factory emision s**t... again he was not %100 sure..

question... what made you think that it would make it easier to pass?
