So, what do you guys who live in states that do smog tests do when its time to renew your tags?

I dont live in a smog area, just wondering

Here in Texas people pay extra money to get their vehicle passed, which they run the test on another vehicle instead of yours, and enter your car in the computer. I've seen people do it at my work. I've never done it myself and I won't do it.

Gonna cross that bridge when I get there. Probably have a stock M50TU in the garage and hope the stroker passes smog. If it doesn't, I'll drop the 2.5 in for the test and then put the stroker back in. That's most likely my plan. Isn't CA great?

For the smog they really just look under to make sure u have cats, but if your cars lowered like mine:D they just say it has cats, and everything looks like a stock M50 on the outside, so it will pass visual, now for the sniffer i talked to a few guys running "hot" cams ect in e30s, and they said theres no problems with passing smog a few of them said they even got a better result with the stroker saying it runs cleaner, But next week i have a buddy who works for a CA smog station, and is going to run it for free to confirm for me if it will pass/fail.

I know.... i need to sync my dam camera so i can give you guys some eye candy haha, no M5 beauty but still.

Yea people around here do it to called "hot smogging" really popular around the ricer community, they just throw a stock car on the tester that is same make model, and just write if off as your car, but if you get caught its like 10 years in fed prison or something crazy like that......

I believe its a M54b30 crank with M52b30 Pistons, ill check tomorrow to be certain but im almost 100% sure thats what i used. i could have them mixed up though......

Im trying pretty hard to get to bimmerfest this year (work issues), and would love to join a caravan. Is there any other caravn info? I would love to do the bavarian500 but i live in Folsom it would be tough to get to Gilroy or wherever by 8am, can you send me more info?

[Baupfhor]

Agreed as E34 said. As long as you have all your emissions devices installed and it all looks factory with a proper tune for the 3.0 you shouldn't have any troubles passing.

[WhoNew]

OP, who built your motor ?

i dont believe so

[kmp]

I'm pretty sure there is no m52b30.

[WhoNew]

I'm pretty sure there is no m52b30.

No there isn't. There is an m52b28. But those pistons will come out of the bore 2mm.

[E 34]

sorry.. M54 pistons, i bought them almost 6 months ago and they have been sitting since so i had to check, but yes your right no m52 pistons, yes your right no M52b30

[WhoNew]

Thank you for confirming this ! I am building one now, and the wheels in my brain started turning with the possibility of using m52 pistons !

When you get further into the build, make sure the cut the oil baffel in the oil pan, or else the crankshaft counter weights will smash it to S**T!!

[WhoNew]

I have read that, think maybe I will use the m54 oil baffle.

I was planning on using the m54 oil pump with custom oil tube.

[E 34]

Ahh gotcha, well I just got myn finished last night, and it pulls hard!!

[WhoNew]

You finished it ?

I need video !

[E 34]
