We had the state inspection here in Nebraska until the entire safety inspection process was overrun with illegal stickers, stolen stickers, bought stickers, counterfeit stickers, bribes for favorable inspections, and the like. There just weren't enough people to police the system, so they simply discontinued it.....the very next day, a load of kids in a mid 70's Olds sedan slid across the interstate on bald tires that would have never passed a legitimate safety/smog inspection and T-boned the guard rail. The roadway was wet and they were all killed...
Guess what kinda people steal inspection stickers? Yep, criminals. I don't wanna be the one that helps a criminal get money for what ever it is he needs the money for.

Get a rice burner http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif til you can square the car for inspection or get QQ plates, no inspection (oops - one more year for QQ"s) http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Dump in a can of STP oil treatment in the motor and put a can of octane booster in the gas tank with about 1/4 left in it. Change your plugs and you should pass...

Aaaah, it's a grey one. They never pass. Something to do with lead in the paint.

Fake stickers are your only hope!!!

(Grey two doors will sometimes squeak by...less surface area or some scientific nonsense.)

Good luck!

We had smog inspections when I lived in Vancouver, BC. We used to fill the tank with Mohawk premium which is gas with alcohol in it. Then a couple of cans of methyl hydrate ( gas line antifreeze ) in the tank and lean up the carb. Seemed to work.

I don`t want to come off sounding like a dick but, why don`t you just tune it up as needed?
