sitting at work bored off my ***..

2 state emplyees come into the store..

drop us off some info on the guidelines for the new 2009 florida emmisions and inspections..

thats right ladies and gentlemen.. 2009 all populated areas of florida will have OBDII and OBDIII emissions inspections..

the inspections will include a visual.. and a OBD Scan for emissions codes..

GOD i'm glad i work for Goodyear/Gemini.. my car will always pass..

 

So I guess this means that all cars with out cats will fail?
What all do they look for?
Guess I will have to be seeing you to get my car to pass!

 

Really?

 

so far we are told we are to do a VISUAL inspection of all emissions systems..

which is ok cause 01-02's didn't have egr so you should be fine there.. and as long as your tuned and have no codes.. a set of gutted cats should clear you..

 

you know i got you covered..

 

I don't think this will work to well.
They have tried before and failed. We will see, but I am guessing the older cars will pass and as long as you have a cat on the car you should be good (since it's illegal not to have them anyway)

 

Gulp...My 2nd gen ta has an earlier year engine in it and no cats. I guess I am in trouble?

 

pardon my crappy camera..

it sais it has something to do with agriculture and will generate 53 billion into the states economy..

so it has nothing to do with anything but money

dun dun dun

edit: i suck a hosting pictures

 

 

So its only for obdII and III cars? The older cars that burn a quart of oil every 500 miles and pollute more than our heads/cam cars don't have to get inspected?

 

looks like ill be buying a lightning sooner than i wanted 2

 

this is scarry. i believe it will be county to county enforcement

i find it weird there is no news since this will effect a LOT of junker cars on the roads.

 

well the more i read it sais repeatedly.. emmisions testing proposal..

so i'm still keeping my fingers crossed

 

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


WTF DO I DO? NO cats/mufflers, TURBO, NON-RACE CAR!!! I have my car to drive on the streets and cruise... I KNOW there alot of other highly tuned nice street cars out there (500+ hp)... What the hell do we do? Start dismantling our hard-earned money/set-ups and take it up the ***? I feel like crying!!!

This CANNOT go through!!! I got ALL my fingers crossed right now!!! Please, keep us updated!!!

 

question.....i know 01+ (or maybe its 02+) dont have egr and ****...i have papers saying i have a 04 motor in my car....since the motor is an 04 will i pass visual inspection if i dont have egr?

 

we are gonna have a hell of a fun time trying to get our cars to pass!!!!!
my idea is to buy a cat to put where my removable cut out is, plus i haev a small cam, but no AIR anymore

 

well we shall see how this plays.. if your car is tuned you should have no cat code..so its all visual.. just weld a hollowed cat around the pipe..

and make sure you have a friendly inspector..

 

you all had to know this was bound to happen sooner or later..

 

bro, Im with you... I hope this is a baaaaad joke

 

so its just a scanner and visual no sniffer or any thing?
