anyone pass smog with a 5-speed conversion?

anyone pass smog with a 5-speed conversion?
I want to get one done on my car but I want still pass smog.

[5t341tH]

why the hell wouldnt it? are you assuming from the CEL light?

[krissynbeau]

yes, that would be one of my concerns

[Ceepo]

pull the bulb out lol... well never mind that wouldnt work dont they check for that when you turn the key to accessories?

[usdm180sx]

Make sure the tranny matches your motor. OBD 1 motor to OBD 1 tranny or OBD 2 motor to OBD 2 tranny and you should be fine

[nep]

1. manual ecu
2. follow this: S14 Tranny Swap - Electrical Connections
3. if you have an obdII s14 you need the CAS sensor that goes into the bellhousing of the trans

[DreamN]

if it's an s13 there is no issue. s14 use 5 spd ecu and follow all wiring.

search. you'll find more info.

[krissynbeau]

I have a 1993, does that mean I cant use a 94 tranny

[bo2o]

it should be fine. its a visual,
just go to a smog guy you know and tell him y its throwing a code.
smog guys that are dicks wont want to pass it. but if your cool with the tech it should be fine.

[codunc]

94 trannies are all auto, as all 94s are verts here.
so that wouldn't be a good candidate for a 5spd conversion

or she can cut the wires and splice into the one of the other bulbs that isnt on, like window fluid or w/e other crap in on the cluster...others done it, works...

[ixfxi]

how about just doing right and not fucking around with jerry rigging your gauge cluster or disabling the fucking CEL

its a transmission swap, its easy as cake. do it fuckin right... i cant imagine anyone not passing smog due to a transmission swap.. youde have to be the biggest fuckin noob to fuck that up

[driftage240]

If u do the swap correctly you wont have a prob..my 93 vert doesn't throw a cel..my reverse lights work and my top(do it wrong your top wont worky)....well then again i did the swap..and im super cool and sexy..

I converted my 240sx from an automatic to a 5 speed and had no problem passing smog.

The transmission has nothing to with emissions unless the chassis is a 1996+, and that's only due to the CEL.

89-95 chassis, use any 89-98 transmission. Passes smog the same as an auto. We've been over this for over a dozen years.

man this thread sucks

lol

im just offering the lazy fuck option, i wouldnt do it...i currently have my CEL on due to bad EGR...gotta get that change out soon...

[DreamN]

^Just clean it. Sometimes that's all that shit needs.

good info. thanks.

already stated above, make sure motor obd1 has obd1 tranny.. get a 5 speed ecu and that will get rid of the cel.. unless you got other problems that will keep the light on. My kouki was auto, got it swapped. got my 5 speed ecu in. got rid of the light no prob. just got my smog test last month.

You bumped a month old thread just to say you agree? What the fuck.

[DreamN]

And his information was still half assed.

You can wire it up to another bulb that lights up temporarily when you put the key into ingnition/acc

His point was you said "OBD-I transmission", there is no such thing. The transmission has nothing to do with emissions.

S14 units add the crank position sensor for diagnosis of misfire, though it is NOT an OBD-I/OBD-II thing as all 1995 models are OBD-I.

What you meant to say, is that if you're doing a 5speed swap on an S14 chassis, it's better to use an S14 transmission since it has the CPS hole already. That's the appropriate answer.

S14 DOES NOT EQUAL OBD-II. EVER.

So for the last time, ALL 89-98 MANUAL TRANSMISSION ARE THE SAME. Period, save for a few switch changes throughout production. None of them are OBD-I specific or OBD-II specific.

thats what i meant to say.. was, if you had a obdII car, you will need a tranny that has a CPS hole(which only came in obdII cars).. guess, it was written wrong.. but thats what i meant to say.

[Ares240SX]

I passed smog, in CA, with a manual swap. The guy didn't even ask any questions even though when he put the VIN into the computer it told him it was an automatic car originally. Shouldn't be a problem.

Of course he didn't. There is no smog equipment on your trans.

LOL

Seriously this thread is so stupid and full of shit. It should have ended with what Project RDM said.

Mods please come and lock this lame excuse of a thread.

You are still incorrect. The CPS is found on ALL S14 models, '95-'98. Only '96-'98 models are OBD-II though. The changeover is NOT OBD-I vs. II, it's S13 vs. S14.

1995 models are ALL OBD-I.

I don't know how to word it any clearer.

[DreamN]

Russ, actually some late model California '95s are OBD-II.
