Nismo Exhaust Modified Exhaust citation?
Well, I got ticketed for my RS*R for the last time, so I've decided to switch to a more quieter exhaust.
I just don't want to run into this problem again with the Nismo. Has anyone had any problems with the Nismo exhaust in SoCal?

I had Nismo exhaust on my car and I've never had any problems with cops. I know one of my friends got into an argument with a cop about it and the stupid cop still gave him a ticket! Some cops just haven't got a clue about cars. At court he made the cop look stupid in front of the judge and then the cop ended up losing his cool, LOL!
Anyways, I now have a Stillen Dual Exhaust that is way louder than my Nismo and cops do look over at my car, but that's all they do...

I have HFC mated with nismo, and i consider it to be pretty loud. Never had any problems though...
I think it all depends on how you drive. I'm pretty sure if I gunned it to 4k on every shift, a cop would hassle me for the exhaust. But honestly, you can really control the sound/loudness of the nismo as long as you're easy on the pedal. Essentially, if you keep at a moderate throttle, the nismo is pretty quiet.

if it's just the nismo with no other exhaust mods, you won't have a problem.. it's not loud at all unless you want it to be. i've had it for a year or year and half and cops don't even look twice. plus if they give you **** you can explain that it's a factory upgrade.. nismo = nissan!

When I was in court paying for a equipment violation NON Z Related the guy in front of me got a MODIFIED EXHAUST citation. According to the paperwork he had and what he told me any Exhaust citation has to go to a Smog Referee and not just the local CHP to sign it off.
