I'm driving a '97 Prelude with JDM H22A swap, running OBD2-1. I don't have emissions inspection in Griffin, but I'm trying to sell it to a dude on here that would have to have it inspected. I just moved from NC and it passed up there by using a P14 ECU off a 92-96 prelude. I still have that ECU and put it on today and it showed a code for O2 sensor.

I really don't want to pay for new O2 sensors just to pass inspection to sell this car. So can anyone help me pass inspection? I know OBD2 is harder to pass than OBD1, but can anyone somehow make this pass for me or know what to do? I would really appreciate any help with this

What I'm really asking is if anyone knows anyone that might have a connection that could possibly.....tweak.....an emissions test. I really don't want to pay $150 and replace the O2 sensors when the only reason they are showing up is because I have to put in a different ECU.

Here's the story on my car. I moved from NC. I bought the car from a used car dealer last year, with the JDM swap already. To get it to pass the inspection so the dealer could sell me the car, they put on a '92-'96 prelude ECU and ran it for 50-60 miles. After the computer reset itself, it didn't show any codes. The only problem with keeping this ECU on was that it is a non-vtec prelude ecu.
I got the JDM ECU back on and it runs fine, but it has a harness to change it from OBD2 to OBD1 for the swap. Apparently an OBD2 emissions test won't even register the OBD1 ECU, so I put the BB4 ecu back on. With this ECU on, it is showing a code for O2 sensors. In order to pass the emissions test correctly, I would have to buy new O2 sensors, then run the ECU for 50-60 miles to reset the computer.
I really don't want to do anything else with the car, so can anyone just "make" my car pass inspection? I'm not paying for it, the purchaser will be, so I'm sure he wouldn't mind finding someone to do this for him.

I appreciate your help guys!
