Apparently I have to do emissions again, and I did it last summer. So I’m assuming all that BS about yearly emissions is true. Andrew. ---

I think the system has a loop hole or is screwed up in some way. I’ve taken my car off the road the last 2 years (not renewed my plates in November) and have gotten new stickers in the spring for the last 2 years. Everytime I renew, I go to the licensing bureau with a valid e-test and never need it. I’ve owned the car for 3 1/2 years and have not been asked for an e-test yet! ---

what year is the car and when did you first aquire it? if you bought it in an off year (even model year, even current year) then it would need it done 2 years in a row… otherwise if it has changed to every year, that upsets me… ---

afaik it is still every 2 yr for a etest i got my car last nov, and register it in dec and the plate is due aug, 06 that just passed and mine is a 91’ so it’s suppose to get a etest done b4 renewing teh plate but since i have teh etest done last dec, and the paper is vaild for a yr so i don need another etest and now they don send u the yellow etest letter nemore on ur plate renewal letter, if theres a red star beside ur car’s info that means u need to get a etest done b4 renewing… remember, even yrs, odd yr models need a etest, and odd yrs, even yr models ---

i purchased my car in dec. and i got the etest done at that time. and i just renewed my sticker for 2 years ftw 😃 it was still valid… so that means in 08 i’ll have to do it again…☹ unless its changed, i have to do it every year. which is going to be balls. more money for them to grab off of you. ---

They may have changed it, I noticed when I was at the DMV last week that the 15 year e-test deal is now changed to 20 years. they were proposing both of those changes at the same time… ---

yes the rolling exemption stopped at 1988 so all cars 88 and up are e-tested regardless of age… and any car over 12yrs is tested annually so that means the s14 guys are safe for a few years makes you wish you had an 87 s12 with an sr swap eh? 😛
