So yesterday as I was endeavoring to pass emissions, I heard that Georgia may be getting rid of it all together in the coming year or so? Anyone heard that also?

WTF?

I heard that the whole state was going to have to pass. Not just the metro atlanta area.

Yeah, I'll have to wait 4 yrs till I can get a classic car tag for the civic. 25yr cars aren't required I don't think.

All counties will be doing emissions soon...

Where did you hear this? I would vote for them getting rid of it completely as other states have done since it really doesn't reduce much as far as pollutants go and costs the government a lot of money... but the government never does anything that makes sense... and the only car i own that would require testing i leave registered in FL anyway... not that any of the 13 counties that require testing would have a clue how to test my non OBDII compliant car in the first place:thinking:

I heard it from a Toyota master tech and from a few other places. The government does some pointless shit, so I wouldn't put it past them.

I am sure they will make it required all over. Many states went away from testing OBD1 cars on the rollers with the sniffer. OBDII cars only in many states.

Been awhile since I have done emissions, before the change. But money will always talk, just gotta find the right person.

when i was working at an emission station last year i heard that they are getting rid of all the emission station and having them at gas stations, so its more convenient and i think they are gonna stop doing OBD1. so only OBD2, OBD3, and ASM cars will be tested

I would be so happy if they got rid of the OBD1. Good by cat!!! Other than that, get a diesel, no emissions and tons of torque.

Lame the last few years I havent even got emission done.. I go get my tag and walk out.. They never ask me for the paper.. Someone told me some BS they send a electronic message or whatever with the Emission #... I figure that was B.S... They ask me one time , I said, " Oh damn, I left it in the car " They buy it.. lol

I mean, if they send a electronic message or something linked to your tag that would be a good idea.. but That some BS..
