This is a consideration.
A conversion to all-EV would eliminate any CARB issues.
Or a swap using the complete Prius drivetrain maintaining its ODBII.
From this standpoint, it would be best to convert to all-EV or all-Prius to register the car in California, and modify it afterward to avoid the smog police.
Or register it in Mexico
"Tourists from countries who are party to the Geneva Convention and the Regulation of Inter-American Motor Vehicle Traffic can also legally drive their own private cars bearing valid license plates/registration tags issued in their native country for a period not to exceed one year from their date of arrival."
