No e-test for older vehicals?? why??
I constantly see older trucks/cars that dont require an e-test blowing the most smog/smoke then any other vehical on the road. I think there should be some sort of e-test for older vehicals, its those vehicals that are "killing our green earth". discuss
I was behind this guy for maybe 2 minutes and had to pull over the smell was so bad I couldn't breath. The truck looks like it was from the early seventys with no brake lights.. idiot..
P.S. my work van sounds like a drag car lol

Heavy equipment get tested yearly! my tractor truck does! also not all of Ontario has the drive clean program...Arnprior is 45 kms from Ottawa and anything beyond that point on highway 17 is not in the drive clean program..we live in the " Smog Corridor " so we have to get the shaft...besides cars have it easy here...
I have to put my Tractor threw 7 tests a yr, 1 here and 6 from the States that I required a license for my truck to make money if I don't I can't enter that specific state! Big fines there compared to here! But what can you do,gotta make a living somehow!Mind you mine is not a POS like the 1 in the video..

ya great thats all we need... more legislation, cmon and lets be honest, how many of u fake e-tests when u swap a jdm engine in, stop ------- bullshiting. Everyone breaks the smog limit, why rag on older vehicles...

not entirely true man, Im sure alot of guys do it. But I know a handful of friends that have done work to there motors, and passed emissions. My one friend passed with a gutted cat with a ls/vtec

its done like a million times a month buddy, here is the scoop.
ure buddy who works at a shop puts some other vehicle on the roller and takes the emission readings put inputs ure VIN into the ministry so its like he took the test with ure car... u see? It was weird when i saw my crx last year pass emissions with a better reading than a brand new civic si... hmmm...

I see...good way for the testing facility to get caught maybe...old car with new car readings Ministry will eventually say WTF...people will do anything for the all mighty dollar!
would be sad for the owner of a test center to get canned because of a crooked employee he doesn't know about till it's to late.Not saying they're all angels!

yup the owners usually dont know whats going on. Its the employees doing it after the boss leaves for some extra cash. I believe i payed 150 to get mine done on the rex but i didnt have a choice, its just the way it was tuned and the ecu...

As far as I know, they're changing the laws in 2009...
Current:
3 Years or newer, no e-test
4 Years or older, e-test every other year
New:
5 Years or newer, no e-test
6 Years or older, e-test every year
So if you buy your fake e-tests for whatever reason, have fun spending $200+ every year.

Just did mine last night at crappys and actually passed.. My readings were close to the limit, but then again I was running shitty fuel, needing a oil change, old cat and a dirty egr. But at least its done and over with for 2 years .
