Re:motor swap pass smog?
thats correct. I live in Canada but I have heard alot about cali smog. You need a USDM Market motor of the same year or NEWER. you also need to transfer all of the emissions controls of that motor aswell. ECU, Charcol all that crap.
But I'm sure you could swap to a typer head on a delsol vtec w/ type r IM and they wouldn't know any better.

Jdmmotors are smog legal now in california. The only thing is you need a usdm ecu to pass at the rev and the motor be of the same ecu style obd 0,1 etc. Jeff Sloan on the Hybrid Board honda.hybrids.jp just smogged his h22 in his coupe at the cali ref.
