First of all I could care less but what your trying to do violates a bunch of laws......You might want to ask a little more carefully....

You're not serious are you? This is done in the collectible vehicle world ALL THE TIME. You simply can't hide a stolen vehicle and must disclose what's been done should you ever decide to sell. I've done it before and I'll do it again. Call the cops.

Technically, he's right. Swapping vins around is federally illegal.

One of those things- 'just don't get caught, because it gets you in big shit'

Probably a lot more so in LA than in Arkansas, of course.

Well For all it matters I am swapping all the parts from my car into another,

I owuld like to pay ~$100 hopefully less, I just got married 3 weeks ago im poor as can be.

Swapping VIN's was fairly common here in CA a few years ago when all 02's had to be smogged in CA. For a while, CA used a rolling 25 year rule. I knew of 74 02 owners whose cars would never pass CA smog who would swap VIN's using 73 and earlier VIN and registration in order to get their 02's through smog. 73's and earlier were smog exempt at that time. The smog tech's were clueless between square and round tail lights. It was an era in which you did what you had to in order to pass CA smog. Skip is right, VIN swapping is done a lot more than we think, it's just mentioned more often in "under the table" transactions.

Mine could easily pass smog, I just have no want to go get a smog inspection and smog it every 2 years, it has an s14 with 90k miles it should pass easily.

i have to agree with Richard. and I can't agree with swapping VINs.

I got raped buying my 02 on Ebay and that was number one on the list of offenses I suffered. I've actually got two different VINs showing on my 02

Yeah, its great if you tell the guy who's buying your car that you swapped VINs but how about the pricks out there who don't. who screw over unsuspecting buyers. It was not a great feeling I tell you when Master Ben informed me that my 75 was actually a 74. Jason Brenner go fuck yourself!

its a slippery slope and when you get burned by it maybe you won't be so quick to reccommend it.
