Catalytic coverters in VA?

[razey]

Hey Guys,

I recently purchased my first DSM last week
Got it from a guy in florida and drove it all the way back to VA. I am worried about inspection, The previous owner has no cat converter on it, Emission tests are not required in virginia beach, so i am unsure if it will pass the safety inspection. Are shops required to check for a cat converter on cars in virginia?

Really depends on where you take it. Technically you have to have one on there to pass inspection, although there are no emissions checks here in VA.

You've got pm

There are no emissions, but during safety they are required to check for emissions equipment being intact. So yes, you will fail unless the emission guy does not care.
