OK many of you may remember me asking awhile back how I could tell if I had a Cali model I30. Now I have read the little sticker on my hood but Im still unsure. SO, could someone with an I30 who has a Cali model please tell me EXACTLY what the white sticker on their hood says so I can know for sure? Or if someone who doesnt have a cali model could tell me what theirs says it would help also. Thanks for the help!

Hey, I was bored so I looked under the hood a few days ago. Just read every line, you should find clues that it indicates CA or California, or something. It'll probably be too late, but I'll look at it tomorrow.

Look towards the front of the engine (actually the side), right ontop the the front header. If you see 4 senor type things, you have Cali spec. If there is two sensors you have Fed spec. If you need a picture, let me know.

Cattmanperformane has the drawing of the location of the sensors on his y-pipe page.
My 99 CA spec has 4 sensors.

The sticker for a Fed spec says something along the lines of 'Meets federal specifications', and the cali spec says meets Federal AND California...'.

under the hood should say conforms to us epa and california...although NY, MA, I think CT are also included in Cali specs. It's really a blessing, when you got cali emissions those jokers in east jibit testing your emissions in some **** state can't say you didn't pass.......I don't think we're in Kansas anymore
