passing smog

[hurricanecris24]

i have a 1999 eclipse gst i just bought it and i need to pass smog. it came with an aftermarket intake so it wont pass. does anyone know a website or anywhere i can get a stock air intake???

It won't pass smog cause of an intake, I've never heard that 1 before. You can check the classifieds on here or your local craig's list. People are getting ride of those all the time.

im pretty sure it will pass with a intake if thats all thats been done to it and its stock....

Humm, California like me huh! You didn't pass inspection or it's something else. Usually any car can pass with just an intake. You said you just bought it. You might need to check other important parts to make sure it is all stockish to pass.
My nephew passed with and exhaust, intake and apexi intercooler. Luck beats me. But I know that you can smog a stock turbo car with an intercooler now!!!

Post a pic of your intake pipe and filter.
All you need is K&N FIPK set-up with a CARB sticker stuck to your MAF and you're all good.

And to the other guys, he can't pass visual here in CA without a CARB sticker.

Yah! I was thinking it might of been inspection. Thats what I was trying to say. I used an AEM for my civic and the smog tech was a, you know! But I showed him the carb sticker, he gave me a srug like damn. Smog it and I was on my way!
But yeah! THAT'S CALI FOR YOU!

Try ebay my friend. I find lots of stock parts there!

That BOV has to go.
It's not recirculated and it has a horn on it to make it louder, which is so RICE and the Smog Nazis will not let that pass, guaranteed.
Either get an OEM 1g BOV, or use the OEM 2g one and ditch that POS.
I had that exact intake pipe/kit on my GST.
I also had a GReddy Type-S BOV recirculated, and since the dump was so close to the MAF the noise from it blowing off would exit the filter and it would scare old women and children when it went off right next to a car with the driver's window down.
I was pretty fun!
Venting a BOV is so ghey.
I hope you bought it like that and didn't do that yourself.

Buy the K&N Filter kit that is Smog Legal in California and slap a CARB sticker on top of your MAS, or find a different smog shop.
You need this K&N FIPK in order to get the CARB sticker.

This is how my engine bay passes every time.
I bought the car with the GReddy Smog Legal Turbo Kit installed and the CARB certification includes the Intake Pipe and Filter.

yeah, it's wicked stupid here though, especially if you live in or near LA, San Diego area where all that stupid street racing shit started.
And to the OP, I have a stock intake snorkel they call it if you want it.
I also have a stock air box, but I'm not letting that go.
you can get one from a junk yard and possibly the BOV, UICP and intake pipe.

Excellent suggestion.
They even have a thread going right now.

You are correct, they are two different sites all together, but the Mitsu Graveyard has been around for a long time.
Here's their site.
