6G Celicas Forums

i have an at200 96 celica. it has a 7afe stock engine and im planning on swapping a black top 4age engine on it.. here in the U.S. if your car is in the year 1996 and up are required to get emission test. without that car wouldnt be street legal. my question is that anybody here that has a 96 celica at200 with a black top 4age that lives in the U.S and requires that your car need emission testing? if so how do you guys pass the testing with no check engine light on ? thanks in advance hopefully you guys can help me

i just got my coilovers.
the brand is NEX SS coilovers.
as soon as i got them.
i quickly installed it.
the problems is that rear coilovers
somehow whenever i tried to bolt the 2 bolts that hold the strut and the knuckle together
i can only bolt either the top or the bottom. i CANT bolt in 2 of them !
sounds odd? it is.
what i did was i bolted the top ones 1st against the knuckle with no problem
but the bottom ones are the problem im having. it seems that they dont line up
correctly.
the holes in the bottom are line up like these

l l
l l <-- top bolts which lines up correctly
l l
l l
l l <-- hole from my coilovers which doesnt go all the way down to reach the bottom oem hole
l l <-- knuckle hole where it exactly lines up from oem strut
i dunno what to do now. i just want to get 2 bolts bolted in.
hope you guys can help me with this
i have a 96 celica st (at200)
