CA has its own emission standard that are especially strict requiring extra reading/sensors on most cars and therefor a different ECU.
For instance, CA ECU on the SVX not only detects an EGR sensor like all US SVXi but also has a temp reading for it. Ask So-cal about it as he had issues for seemingly forever.

Also, I think I caught someone on here that said now AZ now follows CA in their emission standards.

As much as I hate to say it on the car, Probably not gonna be able to make enough off of it buying it back for $1000. I would suggest pulling off anything you can though before it gets taken away. sensors, computers, anything you can grab...
