hey i dont think we have to worry about smog.. untill '08(if your gonna keep ur car till then). cus this is my 3rd year w/ the car and i been getting smog abatement fee.. i know it last for about 6 years new/old for first owners.. if im correct

Increase in "Smog Fee"

Until January 1, 2005, private passenger vehicles registered in urbanized areas of California are required to submit a smog certificate every other year at the time of vehicle registration; vehicles four model years old or newer are exempt, and their owners pay a $6 annual smog-abatement fee instead.

Beginning January 1, 2005, vehicles six model years old or newer will be exempt from the smog-check requirement and will be assessed a $12 annual smog-abatement fee. The additional revenue will fund the Moyer Program, which subsidizes emission-reduction programs for high-polluting diesel engines such as locomotives, ships, large trucks, and agricultural equipment. The goal of the program is laudable, but the Auto Club opposed the proposal because charging motorists who drive newer vehicles to clean up highly polluting industrial diesel engines violates the state's constitution.

Also effective January 1, 2005, vehicles four years old or newer will be exempt from the change-of-ownership smog-check requirement and its attendant fee. Instead, their owners will be assessed an additional $8 transfer fee. This change will increase state revenues without increasing overall costs for motorists. Revenues will help the Bureau of Automotive Repair pay for the costs of administering the Smog Check program. The Auto Club did not oppose this change.

Smog for a new car is after 5 yrs... then after that its every 2 yrs. I called around to local smog places and that what they told me.

Mine is a 2002 - so i have until 07 before i need to smog.. I plan on keeping my car for a long time so if i get the headers i dont wanna hassle with putting it back to stock when i need to smog. too much trouble for me. Is there a way to get the headers but mount a cat after the headers so that it will pass smog..??

THe cat is built into the exhaust manifold for us... so no =\ it'd be nice to have a high flow cat... but we all already know that the majority of Solara owners are cheap-asses and we wouldn't shell out for it.

When you get the headers bring it to a muffler shop and have them cut off part of the headers and weld a CAT on there. Either way your going to fail the visual inspection for SMOG cause they will know it's an aftermarket header with no CARB# means illegal so you fail smog right on the spot.
