I keep getting contradicting info. One site says the engine will not meet smog, and yet people have swapped the engine into US Celica's. I Live in California where all the regulations are the strictest, is it legal to swap in the 3s-gte or not?

heres teh CARB Law.../
"Cars may swap engines if it is of same year or above and meets smog blah blah blah" Which means 94-96 Celicas can 97+ cant (the MR2 turbo was only produced up to 96 in U.S.) -Nate |
