Is it a S13 or S14? I know for a fact S14 will cause a CEL.

Ah this is regional. It does not belong in chat. Just thought I would let you know California specific questions belong in the the regional section.

Though to answer your question. No the 5 speed swap will not effect your smog at all on a S13. On a OBDII S14 it can if you do not use a 5 speed ecu and do not hook everything up, then it will throw a CEL.

not to thread jack but i was just curious what the penalties are if the smog place was.. i guess wrongfully passing cars even tho they were not in compliance with regulations? if this is a stupid question just say so haha
