welcome to the island (although i'm not on it right now)

where in honolulu are you? and are you renting a car?

if you have a rental, take a ride through waikiki. when your car gets here, you most likely won't be able to drive it through waikiki without getting a ticket.

I am staying in Manoa. I dont have a car anymore but I cant wait to have mine here. Why would I get a ticket if I drove my car thru waikiki? That sucks if cops are that **** here.

If you have a loud aftermarket exhaust, they'll pull you over...

you don't NEED to go to have your car inspected by Recon(or FOR Recon)...until you get stopped for something like exhaust or whatnot. if you can pass recon, i would go for it.

what mods do you have on your car?

otherwise, try Jiffy Lube by University. or you can go to one of the garages in Kalihi(by Waikamilo)

since hawaii doesn't regulate emissions, you should pass inspection no problem. if you lowered your car, you'd possibly have a problem.

just go to Jiffy Lube by University and Berritannia(by the burger king). you should pass no prob
