Ill look to see what we have that can be offered to you....

plus fahrenheit350 sited 2 great sources...

 

You could go to Radio Shack and buy a decibal meter for $40.00 and just keep it in the storage compartment. Then if you get hassled whip it out and prove them wrong.

 

Gimp....put your stocker on and ride the wave until its safe to come back in again! HKS is to sweet of an exhaust to give up. Plus, even if you can prove that the HKS is LEGAL in all aspects, its not very smart to contridict your interviewing officer. Show your a team player..Once your in put that bad boy back on. Dont give up good money and great pension for an exhaust! Good luck.

 

thats f-king gay... sorry but thats typical cop bull****... hope if you become one you dont turn out like them... good luck

 

Oh yeah.....I just dynoed my car after the exhaust install only....10rwhp ....so I dont think you really want to give that up..

 

I can trade my APS 2.5 TD for urs..its only a few months old, in perfect condition. Most likely, its quieter than ur exhaust

 

I had to pull those sources because I was pulled over for "modified exhaust" a couple months back.... the irony of the whole situation is that I had a STOCK exhaust !? The cop eventually let me off with a warning but I had to get my resources together just in case it happened again. That is the wonders of living in Irvine.

 

Yeah, a lot of it is BS.... a "modified exhaust"...so technically midas, or any other muffler shop, is a business of performing illegal modifcations. haha...

Now...to address the "anything louder than stock"......hmm well, refer to the....

27150, 27151 & 27200 of the California Vehicle Code; and Title 13 of the California code of Regulations, Section 10361, which establishes a noise limit of 95dB(A) for passenger cars. This statement applies to unmodified HKS exhaust systems that are less than 13 months old, are in good condition and which have been properly installed on the specific vehicle for which it was designed.

Hense why I think its all BS......but at the same time, do I think every car with an exhaust out there is legal? oh hell no!....its just those that ruin it for everyone else.......but in the end, its the peace officer judement call..or in some cases lack of judgement.

ok..rant off

 

as long as i bring in the paper work he said he'll believe me and leave it alone =D

 

glendale PD? tell them ur ansestors r from armenia n theyll let u slide

 

You should definitely swap it out.....

I might be interested in trading you for my stillen. Its barely louder than stock, and looks almost exactly like stock except for straight cut tips and chrome muffler. Also, it makes the most power of any exhaust. Let me know.

 

haha can it. i got disqualified for having a "poor driving record"
2 tickets and suspension in hs back in 2001. then accident not at fault in 2003, failure to signal in 2004, seat belt in 2005, accidtent at fault in 2005, and seatbelt jan 2006

 

I have the nismo catback, looking for something different, pm me for details

 

thats sucks. how do they know if its loud or not.. the stock 350z's is already loud.. so... i dont get this cops,their trying to act like they know what the **** their talking about..

 

Sorry to hear that. There's always other agencies and cities. Good luck.

 

Will,

so HKS exhaust is considering illegal by cop down there?

 

damn gimps.. joining the PD?? nice~ you better waive my tickets in the future LOL JK
lets hang out some times

 

No...it shouldnt be. HKS has tested the exhaust and it meets the requirements. However, if you do add headers or more specifically test pipes, it does raise the overall decibal level of the exhaust note...just something to keep in mind.
