The G3 does have 'CARB pending' on it which means Stillen, God bless them, are paying the ridiculous amounts of $ to get it approved. Aftermarket cats/test pipes definitely will NOT pass the CA smog nazi's
This is why you keep your stockers, and right before you go test, you swap the stockers back in, and get tested. Then once you pass, swap them back out.

Yes, I did the same (swap out, smog, swap back in) for my berk cats in the 350Z - will do the same for the 370Z
