Kinda… The guy that posted it was offered this car in trade for his C5Z. Supposedly there is around $25k in work done to the 240 and the paint is only 2 weeks old.
NY should seriously offer the ability to opt out of the emmissions side of an inspection and have the customer pay an additional “environmental” fee or something like that.
Allow you to ask to be put on the sniffer. and if your shit passes give me my sticker. (+obvious safety inspections too)
That car, with that engine running right is probably cleaner running than half the questionable shitbox’s you see misfiring down the road with flappy rotted fenders with current inspection stickers becasue they are pre 1995.
it looks nice, don’t get me wrong, but does anyone else think its redonkulous to pay close to 20k for what, at the end of the day, is still a Nissan 240sx
So let me get this straight. As long as the ecu running the motor isnt vin encoded/etched/what have you, (IE when its plugged in to NYSDMV it doesnt show up a VIN number and look like you just plugged a vette in to the computer while trying to inspect a nissan). NYS DMV doesnt know enough to realize anything is a miss. More or less it will look for readyness and MIL codes and either pass or fail.
I know for a fact that even if the car you are tyring to inspect has a VIN encoded ecu, and the VIN on the ECU doesnt match the one you scanned on the windshield to start the inspection, YET the motor and ecu are running 100% fine and will pass… it will pass and you walk out with a sticker. BUT when they upload to DMV, they might get flagged becasue of the missmatch. So either the shop or the registered owner might get a letter.
So, that tells me the first assumption is correct. If say this ECU is wiped clean of any trace what car the donor was, NYS will be none the wiser. it will pass as long as its running fine. And even if its vin encoded with some other car it will still pass, but might get caught once its uploaded to nys.
My next question for you GM ecu gurus, how hard is it to take say an LS3,6,7 or what ever out of a newer chassis than the classic LS1 and blow out the VIN and donor vehicle information so its more or less an empty ecu running the engine?
I think you’re giving dmv too much credit. To my knowledge looking at inspection records at work if there’s no vin recognition and the machine doesn’t pick up on it all the DMV sees is the VIN scanned and the result (pass or fail)
Yup there very well could be something behind the scenes I’m not a programmer lol. But from what I see its the vin entered and a simple pass/fail. But like you said when does the state make something that involved lol.
