No. the Smog equipment installed in CA is actaully added to normal cars in order to be sold in CA. Running the car with the equipment installed may still be required in some areas of AZ but can sometimes be removed. Leaving it there will be fine too since you'll help prevent the same polution in AZ that is choking CA.
god invented smog
No, it is illegal to remove smog equipment anywhere in the United States. Nevada will check each time you get it inspected for missing or disabled equipment so don't do it.
No, there will be no problem at the DMV. The important thing is that the DMV has received your vehicle's smog check certificate number and the vehicle has passed. The reason for the smog test is simply for smog check data which is obtained by Sacramento and used for analysis.
current smog regulations state that all vehicles that are 25 years old and older do not need to go for a smog test. ive got a '68 gto that is registered and has not gone in for smog in about 15 years.
What do you mean smog a car? If car is sold "as is", buyer is responsible for all mandatory smog control equipment. If you mean pass a smog inspection, there are none in Iowa.
Depends on the GVW and possibly state. I had a 76 C-10 with a GVW of 6050lbs not California & it did not have smog. C-10 with GVW less than 6000lbs required smog.

With very few exceptions, there is no longer any difference between cars sold in California vs. the rest of the 49 states as far as smog equipment is concerned.
Most likely smog. Mexico City has a worse smog problem than Los Angeles ever had.
lalalala what did you say oh i can answer that yes no i dont know
2000 VWs use ODB2. There are some test equipment that do not conform the initialization specs on ISO 9141-2, implemented by VW on some cars, models 1999 to 2001, resulting in a communication problem. If you are having this problem getting smog check, and you have no aftermarket equipment on the car that could be incorrectly installed, then I would suggest to stop by the dealership.
So many things. Smog equipment, fenders, tires, loudness, safety equipment, lights, etc. The list is huge. Try to narrow down your question.
