Going off of the topic... Can a cop make you pop...
So i guess i totally never thought about this, but would soing a 3sgte swap into a 94-95 celi be illegal? I say 94-95 because of smog regulations and OBDII, but aside from worrying about emissions... Would it be illegal to have a celi with a 3sgte in there? Assuming that you didnt do anything really crazy with... Same questions goes for 96-99 celi's? Please just facts or good links to helpfull sites. -------------------- 1 JL 1,000/1v2

Legit, it's based on your state. Some cars are never sold in certain states, because their emissions laws are too strict. I remember there was a commercial about a truck that wasn't sold in like 15 states, and the voice-actor said "But who cares because you don't live in those states - Yee-Ha"
 Point is that the 3sgte was sold in MR2's. Do you live in a state that you can buy an MR2 from a respectable dealership? -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!! D-man FTW!

Well then... chances are that a 3sgte motor is legal in your state. Whats the difference of witch toyota car it's in? And the 3sgte was sold in Celica's. That Celica just wasn't offered to you. It's called a Replacement Engine. If the Engine is legal, and it replaced your previous engine; what's the problem? Will you get a ticket for using a 223 light bulb instead of a 225 in your dome light? Now if you soup-it-up and delete the whole exaust and replace it with a HUGE pipe and a coffee can, and delete the emmisions componets, and add a flame thrower, then stick several bottles of nitrous oxide on it and burn ass around town all day, then yes, it's illegal.
