What’s your plan for the exhaust? Thats where I’m currently at with mine and trying to see if anyone has got a 1,2,3 for it here.
Hey, it wouldn't be any fun if it was easy!Great thread. I'm sorry for the unfortunate hurdles thrown at you here. I probably would have given up after the bent frame.

I see you have a 92 which is OBD1. I've gone through the ref process before back in 2001 in a 96 Honda civic and a B series swap from a 99 Integra Type R. It was a bit of a pain because of tighter OBD2 restrictions.
You think there is any hope for a 97 LC swap as a DIY in CA? Or should I just move now? lol
Do they require you install the fuel tank from the donor vehicle as well? I know they started doing that for later year swaps, not sure if they still do or what that criteria is. Looking good!It should be the exact same amount of work as on a 92, minus welding in new engine mounts, just modifying that passenger mount if you want A/C. All of the emissions components from the donor vehicle have to be transferred over to the LC. You would need to transfer over the OBD2 connector from the donor, as I don't think the 97 Toyotas use the same pins. It needs to be refereed with the donor vehicle specs, plus a dyno smog, which would be required whether you have a 92 or 97. The only thing I'm not sure of is what tailpipe criteria they use for the dyno test. Having a 97 might be a bit stricter. But either way the LS is going to spit out way less pollutants than the original LC. Plus the donor for this car is E85, which I plan to incorporate on the LC, so smog should be even cleaner if that's in the tank.
