What did you do to your Supra today?

[underdonk]

Think about it like a DUI check point. They cone the whole street off and force you to go through a line. Then they pick and choose who goes on the smog machine. Its literally a dyno on trailer with a sniffer machine right next to it. They pop your hood and do a visual inspection too.

Look, I lean left on most things, and my job is even with an organization that is responsible for cleaning up big, nasty, harmful messes in the environment. I think it's important. But this... this... I would be upset about my tax dollars being spent on. I lived in NOVA for a bit, which was my first introduction to emissions testing, and was surprised how strict the whole process was. Never ran into mobile testing, though. I guess it's all what you're used to... I just didn't grow up with it.

yes I know. I just can't resist taking any stab at California I can get

Hey, I feel you. Most people like to hate on us when they out there living in the sticks

Lemme know how many days a year you got Sunshine/Rain. Also, lemme know if you wanna know what it's like to pay $6.50 pg.

I live in Charlotte NC, plenty of sun, maybe like 4 homeless people, and I can enjoy my life. I've lived in literally every part of the country, Cali is

Hahaha, yeah homeless amount is crazy here. Glad you understood I was messing around. Some people get mad when I jokingly defend Cali.

It has it's rip offs here, but Venice Beach is my home. Only place I could leave Cali for is Japan sadly. Used to be Florida, but I can't live somewhere where wearing a helmet while riding a motorcycle is optional.

That's when AWD is real nice to have

Fixed it for you.

Disclaimer: I lived in California for 35+ years. I love that state so I'm just having a laugh.

I was thinking, dont the Supras freak out if you dont put them in dyno mode while on a dyno? Pretty much would make it impossible to do the test. I was also thinking it would be funny if they put the sniffer probe on the passenger side exhaust tip while the valve was closed....

Is the orange wifi adapter from Mhd compatible with our car? I thought only the black one.

The black is required to tune the ECU through MHD. The Orange is required to tune the TCU through xHP. I'm assuming anyways?!

Yeah the shitty thing is, you know if they damage your car while doing any of these tests, you're completely shit out of luck. No chance in hell California would assume any responsibility/liability

The day they start doing that in KY is the day 1/2 of the vehicles become non-road-worthy here.

No doubt! KY resident here as well.

Smog this, buddy.

Smog dis diiiiiiiiiii!

Yes, they certainly do. It literally will not allow the rear wheels to spin more than a couple revolutions before locking the brake and screaming at you with all kinds of warnings.

I'd like to live in SoCal for the weather / beach scene, but its so insanely expensive from housing to taxes to gas that I feel like it cancels out that benefit. Idk I'm just a poor redneck from NC don't listen to me lol

No way would they assume any liability. Thats the truth. They would say something like how its our fault they picked our car for testing....

Yes, they certainly do. It literally will not allow the rear wheels to spin more than a couple revolutions before locking the brake and screaming at you with all kinds of warnings.

Good to know. If I ever get selected to go on the smog dyno, I will play dumb. No way would they ever figure out how to get it in dyno mode.
