CARB Help !!!!!!

[Jdmdrew]

So I am in dyer need of help with my smog situation. I live in southern california and got pulled over. The asshole cop gave me a carb ticket among other things. I went to court talked to the judge, told him im selling my car and wanted to pay the fine to get it off. The next day i get pulled over again and tell the cop my story.. he baiclly reinstates the ticket that I just paid 400$ for. So my question is... If the car changes hands (i sell it) does the carb ticket stay on the vin? Basiclly no matter what ,do I have to take it to the Ref? I have an SR and want to avoid it by all means... I would have to put back my KA.

Any help will do.

California law requires you smog it before you sell it anyway. I remember a few months ago when a bunch of people were rushing to sell their sr powered cars because they got refereed like you, selling them for dirt cheap as track only cars.

what if he sells it out of state???

if you have space/tools/time,
i'd say swap back in ka (cheap), make everything smog passable,

if you don't, well...
you can gamble and go to the ref, (i know of someone who did pass w/ sr - lucky bstard), but i'd say chances are slim
not sure what other way you can get away with it...

i think you can sell it out of state, but i'm pretty sure something will stay on the vin, so it can't go back to cali w/o being resmogged again...

keep us posted...

Funny...state refs knows bout SRs now

well I don't know where in OC your live or what your doing but it sounds like the cops know you and don't like you. Anyways , the Referee will just tell you to stick the KA in and come back. You could sell your car out of state to someone . Your still going to have to pay a fine again. Yet I have to ask what is going on that your getting pulled over so often? Is your exhaust loud? Are you racing around? Reason I ask is I know a lot of people that drive SR's are all over socal and as long as they mind their business they don't get pulled over. Let alone twice in a short amount of time.
