Car's too low to run emissions test!

[Jstylez]

so i need somebody to work cheap and come raise my front coils so that i can go get my emissions done, and get my new tags! my current tags run out at the end of September! I'm not working and got no money so im sorry i cant pay you alot, but i'm on medication that prevents me from doin my own shit! if i sweat i can sweat my medication out within an hour, and the medication makes me sweat waaay too much if i'm in the heat. it fucking sucks!!! I cant do my own work anymore till i'm off this shit!

i have K sport coilovers, and 18" wheels. so swapping to stock wheels with balloon sidewalled tires is out of the question cuz i'd end up lower then i currently am...

i have the wrenches for the coils, so anybody in the N. phoenix area wanna help a brother out of a shitty ass situation?

:pissed:

car in question:

no no me neither, i dont consider it a contest, thats why i got a lil defensive sorry, everyones always tryin to be the lowest, and i could care less... lol i'm fuckin low, and any lower at least on an accord would be just dumb. I hope you're right though, i hope they're chill and let me run...

I'm check it out Monday if i dont get my coils raised by then, thanks! i got their address on google maps and everything too already! :thumbup: thx for the suggestion

Hopefully you get the chubby mex dude cause he drives a honda too lol
but yeah you should be fine there chill over there.
so far everyone i know that goes there passes

[die in a dick fire noob]

the one out in east mesa at greenfield and mcdowell are honda people too, if you go in the evening... dude passed my shit with like no emissions controls even in place rofl... some fat new fuck earlier in the day showed my car to his big dyke boss and she failed me after still running it through everything... oh and my cars about 2.5" dropped and they didn't even say anything at all.

[Jstylez]

good shit, i'm crossin my fingers.... you shoulda heard the idiots at the place i went by my house @ 501 W. Deer Valley... "Maybe put bigger tires on" yeah i'll just go buy $300 worth of bigger tires that wont fit on my car anyways cuz i'm tuckin tire up front already! ...

and to whoever asked "how can you be too low to pass emissions" it's because the rollers you drive up and have the wheels spin, get lowered once you're up on them, so once he would have lowered them id have been hangin there from my subframe wheels dangling and not contacting the wheel spiners... that's how. thats what he told me... so w/e

[JDM Jon]

[Civicious]

[atomicx]

But that's only if you can't go to that dysart place.

[onefst91hatch]

ill do it for cheap. and my work is on bell. im here monday through sat. pm me or text me 623-444-0502

[that one eg]

damn that sucks my hatched seemed lower and i was fine but scrapped:(

[mr.DUNK]

I do emmissons fine....

[Jstylez]

yeah, i'm pretty friggen low, but the rollers couldnt of possibly lowered that much... i think it was just a really strict manager, who didnt want to be resonsible if anytihng were to happen ? i dont know... i was pretty mad but at least some of you guys answered a guys' call for help! Thanks alot to everyone who's offered to help. i might try to contact some of you if i get denied at Dysart!

thanks again everyone! :thumbsup:

[chakaloso_02]

it really depends on the guy that is going to do it, most of them are pussies and are to scraed to run the car's on the dyno. I took it to 51st & roosevelt with a friend on mine that works there. At first the other guy's were telling him not to do it because my car was to low (header was 1-2 in from the ground, after getting on the dyno). He was done 5 minutes later and all was fine.

[fmx_dbc]

I'm willing to help you raise those coils too, just let me know. I work 630-4 during the week though

[die in a dick fire noob]

[Jstylez]

ps you still need to drop the rear about half inch lol

yeah i cant right now cuz the exhaust is ran up over the rear pass control arms, and it'll hit / pinch the exh... i'll hafta re-route the exhaust under it before i can do that...

[osofast]

I had same thing happen to me.I thought I would save some time and get emissions done by my work. The guy that was doing the test was a dick and said my car was too low. (believe me my car was 4x4 status, compared to others). I was pissed and pull thru and did not bottom out on anything. I peeled out in frustation, went to the emissions by my house and passed.

Here a pic of the car:

Raise the front or ask for a manager and tell them they aren't responsible for damage...only two options.

[C.R.A.Y.]

where in az do you guys live? in tempe they just test your gas cap and check for cel thats it.

That's only if your car is 96 and up

[Waffle_Taco]

Then raise your fucking car. This isn't rocket science.

[sofresh]

So, if I brought a 1999 Civic in for emissions testing, all they check is literally the gas cap and for CELs?

So if the car is 550whp, exhaust dump out the hood, but gas cap is perfect and 0 CELs then they'll pass it??

I'm being serious with that question. I'm new to emission testing, never had to do them up in WA where I registered my cars.

yes...

but they plug a into the obd2 port to check cel's also.

[sofresh]

So how would one overcome that?? Have a jumper harness conversion. There has to be a trick to get around this I'm sure... so someone fill me in :wave1:

Again, this emissions stuff is all new to me. Been building cars for 11 years and not once had had to ever do emissions.
