After looking online at a bunch of places with in ground smog dynos, I was confident (based on Google Maps) that I could get in and out of their driveways without scraping my front bumper which sits a tad less than 2" off the ground.

I ended up getting smogged at the place adjacent to City Tire in South Gate today when I got my alignment. They had a ramp smog dyno but the owner was cool and letting me press the gas myself in order to conduct the test so I didn't have to go on the ramp (no way was I getting on, not even close). I told him I would tell all of my friends with slammed rides about him since he said he'd be willing to accommodate other slammed rides in the future like he did mine.

They did ask if I had any engine modifications. I told them/showed them the APS plenum and FuRookie intake. They asked for a CARB sticker for the FuRookie and thankfully I had a sticker from a JWT intake on the underside of my battery cover (thanks Alan for hooking me up with this a while back when you parted out!). Also they did a visual inspection to make sure I didn't have HFCs/TPs.

These guys were real accommodating I would highly recommend them for slammed rides even though they don't have an in ground smog dyno. Enter on Atlantic in the south driveway you'll be able to get in and out no prob.

 

Thank you Marcus, I'm going to be smogging my car real soon. This really helps!

 

Good find Marcus! Wish this was found when I had to deal with smog.

 

place in duarte, i took mine in for smog, didn't ask for any mods or stickers, said he didn't care. just smoged it and it passed. i think it was $50. super cool guy. lemme know if you want mroe info.

 

thnks. Im gonna have to swing by to take a look.

 

When do you get smogged?

Does the DMV mail you?

 

yes^^ Itll come in when you receive the registration renewal from the dmv.

 

if you buy a used vehicle it needs to be smoged if you are purchasing private party. and i think if you car is hitting the 7 year mark. it needs it.

 

There this smog place by my house (East L.A) on Olympic and Downey Rd right off the 710. They have a in ground smog dyno. To get in the location its also lower car friendly. They don't ask for any mods or stickers..

 

Thanks Marcus for the referral! Mario was very accommodating to my car and I passed with flying colors! If anyone has a lowered car, this is the place to go

 

Awesome, glad it worked out for you.

 

will give this place a try since most spots I been too are complete morons

 

LOL, they'll take care of you Dre.

 

Theres another spot lower car friiendly here in south gate. I'll get the address later, but its in the 76 gas station on firestone cross street state st 90280.

 

got car smogged today and have to report a few things

1. the guy didn't let me hold the rpms myself, I guess his ego got in the way having failed a few times to keep a stable rpm
2. I know my car is low so services cost a bit more but not when smog check's are ~40-50 everywhere and I pay $80 which is the same I paid for my 96 corolla for a SMOG CHECK ONLY (the actual simulated test). Just letting you guys know before you guys head down
