Well, shipping from NJ to Cali should run you between 800-1000 for an open carrier, and about 1500-2000 for an enclosed carrier, it really depedns on what time of the year you do it, and how full they already are. Sometimes you can get a good deal if they dont have a full car carrier, and they are heading out your way already any way. As far as emissions go, as far as I'm aware, as long as the car still has a cat on it, you should be ok, though I havn't lived out there in a while, so I'm not sure.
