wellll here we go! i took my 95 formula with 178k miles thru a state inspection (paramus) this afternoon. there was NO line at all, no wait nothing nada... drove right into the building, got out, they sniffed my tail pipe, didnt look at anything else, checked my gas cap, slapped on a fresh sticker!!

funny part was seeing the guys all checkin out my old sticker, it passed with a waiver in july 2001, and expired july 2003 lol

epic pass

Just passed in my camaro today. I told the guy off the bat I had a snapped e-brake cable and i still passed. They did the sniffer and checked my gas cap and slapped on a sticker. But i need to reinspect in 2011, which I thought was odd.

What was the year on the sticker they scraped off? 2009?

:w00t: Passed inspection today. Last time I took it through inspection was in 2004, when I first bought the car.

yes it was, is it 2 years from when it was supposed to be inspected?

Did they rev the piss out of your car?

No, they didn't rev it at all. I was getting a little worried when they broke out the mirror and where cheking out underneath the car. They spent a long time checking out my Kooks LT's and catted Y.

2 years from the sticker on the car. if there is no sticker, 2 years from the current month/year. if it was newly registered and you got a pink card, 2 years from the date on the pink card. commercial registration is inspected every year now and gets a safety test still.

That was a quick inspection. I really thought I was going to have a hard time but passed--2000 LS1 EGR & AIR removed & tuned out, LTs, no rear o2s, high flow cats, electric cutout before muffler.

Was talking to the guy & he said that because of the new system they're laying off a ton of people...

my co-worker thinks he can get his car to pass with cats o2 sensors and a y-pipe. what do you guys think

IMO he's gunna fail

i coulda swore i read that cars 5 years old and newer got an automatic pass but my buddy failed with his 06 goat.

depends if they count 2011 as a model year already which they might as of aug 1st.
so 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, and 2007 would be the automatic pass years...
thats all i could think of.

if you scroll down it says cars 5 model years and older must get inspected...

Kinda silly question but here we go... if I were to tell DMV I repowered my car with an OBD2 LT1, when go to get tested would they test as a OBD2 car or OBD1?

Pretty sure it goes off VIN right?

pretty sure they just go by model year... pre 96 gets obd1

dude, no. your car gets tailpiped.

what does that mean "5 model years" does that mean 06 gets inspected or not? lol

2010(1st model year), 2009(2nd model year), 2008(3rd model year), 2007(4th model year), and 2006(5th model year) ..

SO... a 2006 DOES get an emissions inspection.

hahha wow i missread that.. i thought the emphasis was on model years (like it ment something different than years..) and really the emphasis was on "OLDER" GOTCHA! ill have to break the news to him ..

he got rejected for a SES light... and he ripped off his rejected sticker cause he thought he was going to get an extention sticker in the mail.

well apparently he got an extention sticker soo i cant read.. or its written in a questionalble way or something.. or my friends bustin my chops. i dunno lol

Got a 1 year extension sticker for my 06 Exploder.

eh, maybe they dont even know what they're doing at the inspection stations... oh well lol

So anyone know if the got rid of the tilt table test now that saftey inspections are done with??

I'm 99% sure JerzLt1 just had to go through that with his truck. I remember him posting up about it.

Yea, they still have the tilt test. AFAIK none of the rules specifically pertaining to lifted trucks have changed.
