I have tried to do a yahoo search for it, but cant find anything on what I was told. They did change the years though, and a lot of people dont like it.

Anyone else have any Idea what I am talking about??

Why not?

And I have heard of random roadside smog checks here in California. I have heard that it is mainly Southern California though.

because i have a 4EAT and it has a 90/10 torque split. when i got it dynoed at ATP, the fronts were spinning at full speed while the rears were going really slow and they couldn't get any accurate readings. I had to put my car on FWD to get something out of it.. but if that dyno smog starts for us, i don't know anything about my FWD switch

btw my friend got dinged for a dyno smog when he bought his used car 2 weeks ago. he first went in for a regular smog and was about to pass everything then the computer flashed saying he needs the dyno smog luckaly when he got to the dyno place he was except from it since he had a GSX and its AWD hehe so he passed.

Isn't that unless you live close to a smog station that has an AWD dyno (I guess it's essentially the same as passing )?
