so an engine swap isn't considered custom?....

How to Register
When you're ready to put your custom car on the road, make an appointment at your local DMV office. You'll need:

A completed Application for Title or Registration.A filled-out Statement of Construction.Proof-of-ownership documents, like receipts and bills of sale. A motor vehicle bond will be required if proof of ownership cannot be obtained for parts valued at $5,000 or more.A vehicle verification done by the California Highway Patrol. Make your DMV registration appointment before scheduling the CHP vehicle verification.Official brake and light adjustment certificate, unless your custom vehicle is an off-highway vehicle or a trailer weighing less than 3,000 pounds gross vehicle weight.A smog check certificate completed by a Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) Referee Station. Since custom-built cars do not have a year-of-origin designated by a manufacturer, they must be inspected by a BAR Referee Station instead of a regular smog check facility (call (800) 622-7733 for an appointment)Any and all titling, sales tax, and registration fees due.

this discussion can't go any further. please post some pics of the car or just move on

see the part that says UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
No kidding. If you're posting here, why aren't you bothering to read the replies. I said the same thing, twice.

Dream on, keep dreaming until your dreams come true.

Nope, that's for specially constructed vehicles, aka kit cars. That's how guys building Factory Five stuff get it registered.

And in any case, it still requires a smog check, which a RWD SR will not pass in CA. I bet you could get the KA24DET to pass and get it certified if you were so inclined.
