    I've been thinking about this too. There are some emissions related bits on the s2k gas tank but it doesn't look that complicated....

      our kit is for offroad use only ;)

      to make it legal in the people's republic of California you have a few problems but they can all be solved

      1. the immobilizer- to make the stock ecu work most people break off the immobilizer board from the US ecu. This will leave the CEL on. You should be able to wire up the immobilizer and use the key that matches your ECU.

      2. air pump-easy, air pump simulator will get the CEL out but I think you will need an actual pump to get the car to pass in Cali

      3. secondary 02 sensor-add a cat and a second o2

                Waiting on the last design of the oil pan to be tested and we are done. After trying a few versions of the driveshaft, we have 2 solutions. We build a complete one piece with a slip joint and 1310 u joints. This is expensive but really strong (this is what is in the red 318is with the k24a2 turbo) or the cheaper option is you take the s2000 driveshaft and stock e30 driveshaft and mate the two together (this is what's int the white car with the f20c)
