I was driving to school (CSUN) and on the way I got pulled over by a moto cop. He pulled me over cause my exhaust was too loud and he made me pop the hood. He then saw my nismo CAI and it did not have a carb sticker. Told him I got it from the dealer but he said I needed the carb sticker. He gave me a REF ticket.."modified emission" and I got a warning for loud exhaust, so now I have to go to the REF but i can easily swap out to the stock airbox. The problem I have is are they going to smog my car ? My CEL light is on... the cop just said I had to swap out the intake or show proof it is legal and they will sign it off. Will I also have to pass smog???
It is not a fix it ticket.. I got a fix it ticket before. This one has the state ref white sticker on the back of the ticket.. but im hoping your right because I wont pass smog
The risks of having a loud exhaust. You're going to make a trip to the dmv where a ref will check your car with a fine tooth comb, if he/she decides it is not up to par you may have to smog as well.
Yea I'm scared they are going to smog it.. but on the ref website they say they require the latest smog certificate. I will be calling them tomorrow to see exactly what they are going to do. Will keep this posted incase someone else gets it. Sigh don't want to let go of my jic exhaust :[
