who would have thought, in new jersey no less that a 1979 rx7 would pass emissions inspection. Damn I love this car https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

HOLY CRAP! congrats...NOTE*SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT THAT* https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

lol I think I'm going to just leave this one alone, no mods to engine at all. She runs so good, I'm not chancing it. I just ordered tires, going to order struts and shocks, maybe upgrade to a cd player, but that's it.

exactly!! The damn carb and choke even work correctly. I was tempted to pull the rats nest and stuff, but tthen I know the carb will never operate the same again. SO I leave it all alone, this way I can keep buying stuff to rebuild the FD https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

Thats cool that it passed. Two more years and its an official classic here in Wa. I don't believe cars 25 and older need to be smogged but I might be wrong.

Actually no, the 79-80 models don't use cats.
