Hawaii doesn't have emissions; they have safety inspections and RECON for modified vehicles. I left there a year ago so I can't say if they have changed anything as of then. Check on HIFBA for some more answers. Great group of guys!

in dallas county, there is technically a 'visual' inspection along with safety test and OBD test. in 4 years, the only place i've ever seen do a visual inspection was a dealership. and besides the OBD test, i've never had anywhere check anything else beyond lights and horn.
but then again, my car is pretty quiet, so they never question if all my emissions equipment is there or not. if your car is very loud, they might be more likely to question things... unless you go to the types of places that just dont care.

hifba member here.no emission/smog checks here just safety checks every year and recon permit once and your good for as long as you own the vehicle.but they have loopholes to get around them.just gotta have the right hook ups.
