    I've done 2 roadsters via SB100 for myself and my brother. You will declare the "body style" category, NOT the engine year category. I declared via body style, stating it's a 1965 replica, so 1965 emissions requirements were used. More to your situation - if you declare via body style and the body doesn't resemble any other vehicle, the year 1960 is used for emissions purposes. So you will need a closed PCV system, but that's it. No cats required (if EFI) and no smog check.

    Yup it's eligible. Matteo did it so did I and a few other people on the forum. Just call Sacramento and see how many sb100 numbers are still available.

    So what do you guys say the body style resembles?

    Nothing... just choose to register by body (not motor) style. As Dave described, since the body does not resemble a previously manufactured vehicle, it gets assigned 1960 for SMOG compliance!

    At this point, it does look like I should be able to register an 818, so I'm going to go for it. I've got a 2003 WRX for a donor. It came with a good set of 17x8 wheels, a Cobb tuner, nice condition seats, a hybrid 2.5/2.0 engine, and plenty of parts to sell. Now I just need to clear the garage, tear down the donor, and order my kit.

    Thanks for all of the input!
    Glad you'll be going for it... welcome to the madness! I also did my due diligence with respect to researching SB100 before pulling the trigger; seeing that GTM's had been granted 1960 SMOG status put my mind at ease, and I ditched the Cat, TGV's, EVAP, etc... As posted several 818's have now been registered under SB100. My build is slow, so I'm not sure when I'll get my SPCNS#, probably wait til 2017 .

    Congrats! How long was it between CHP inspection and when you got your sequence number in the mail? I'm waiting for mine now so I can schedule the BAR inspection.

    Does anyone know how much it cost to go through the process?I found that it is $120 for the brake and lamp inspection in my area. I was not able to find out how much the smog ref inspections cost nor the CHP inspection.
    Also, how did they figure out how much sales tax to charge you? Can anyone help please? I would greatly appreciate it, as this is factoring into whether or not I purchased the car, this weekend.
