No offense BUT have you gotten one lately?! If so, name the place. It's gotten unbelievably hard in CA. Coming from a rotary background (hence the name), and having to need ~helping hands~ to pass smog, i can unequivocally say that smog check shops in the LA/OC basin don't do them unless your 1) a blood relative/ or 2) in the parts/hi-performance biz (like a real tuning shop). I don't care if your in Inglewood, Bolsa, K-Town or East Los....it's the same all around.

That's one of the reasons why i got out of post 73' mazdas, extensive EM mods and into bread and butter hondas.
