My brother is a Cop and last I heard the ref station is closed down due to budget cut backs. This was 7-9 months ago. Also huge deal with the police is the attitude that you have with them. If your driving like a jack A$$ then expect them to mess with you. Of any driver on the road police love to speed, shoot their average mph in Riverside county 83 mph on duty (at night that's when he works).
I had a 1jz for 3 years in a MK3 Supra. I got stopped by Upland police they were hiding in cable airport at night, just had coilovers installed and a new 3.76 diff put in and jumped on it coming up Benson. They were about 3-1/2 blocks back, I slowed down turned on my flashers pulled the car over on the last street before the 210 freeway. I turned on all the lights on in the cabin, killed my turbo timer and put the keys on the roof. After getting chewed out for about 4-6 minutes about how this isn't NASCAR and what the hell am I doing 100+ mph up the street for they let me off. There were two police officers and the one on the passenger side of the car told me if I hadn't slowed down they wouldn't have caught me. I got off scott free no cops brother thing used even though I think they knew him as our last names are rare.
Police deal with the public and if you are cool then most of the time they are. But yeah there are a few dicks and also the cop may know nothing about the car but with cell phones and better cameras I have helped my brother with 3 cars so far 2 Hondas and a Nissan 240 for illegal mods. He knows jack **** about cars but in all three cases they were telling him what he could and could not do, thats just not a good thing. Just my 2 cents and I will check with him on the ref stations to see if they stil arent using them.

Well Riverside county is not using them, from what he told me last night. They havent had them for a while almost a year from what he said. He usually works the DUI check points and is the lead motor (bike cop) at those check points so if you have a tricked out car and you are mouthing off then they will call him over to look for something. I hope they are gone that would be great for us car lovers. If anything happens to my 1uz I am going to go 2jzgte so it would be nice not to have to worry but with **** california smog laws, unlikly they will stay down for long.

Smog starts on the 6th year from the original manufacture date, and every other year after, so you'll need to smog it every other year from the original manufacture date after the 6th year. If its a 2003, then you'll need to have the car smogged in 2009, 2011, 2013. You'll also need the car smogged right when you try to register it.
