I won't go on a rant & rave about how this new "STAR" system here in Cali works but my question is this...

What is everyone's plans to (let's just say "figit") around this?

Reason being is my 95 SR is due up in 2 months, I know it won't pass and has needed a little "help" so to speak before. REDCAR (for those that know me). well let's just say is above the law <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Now before you law bidding/green hippies come on here and say "you need to make it pass emissions for the environment" I have a 98% generation/9kw solar system on the house, own (NOT LEASE) a Leaf and my wife a Tesla S..

These 2 are my weekend (or twice a year) vehicles and the STAR system was designed to get 1999 and OLDER vehicles OFF THE ROAD...

This effects EVERYONE in CA and soon other states.. Pirate4x4, and TONS of other car forums are freaking out about this new test.

I'm wondering is there loopholes around this? Otherwise, I have a perfectly good 95SR that's going to the state junkyard for $1500... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

And REDCAR... OVER MY DEAD BODY <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />
