As the title states, I have a 1996 OBD2 vehicle with a GEN3 swap, and I need to get it inspected. The shop tried plugging in to the OBD2 port, but it would not communicate with the state software. What are my options? Is there a wiring fix, would a standalone help? I am sure I am not the first person trying to inspect an OBD2 car with a JDM engine in NJ. I hope there is an easy fix here.

This is surprising to hear. I wonder how all the EVO's and STI that are running standalones do it

They flash their existing ECU so the OBDII port still works.. We can’t do that because our ECUs are encrypted.


yep those ECUs are flashable. toyota are not
