Facts, I have an engine swap w zero emissions stuff,no catalysts, ecu that says " for of road use only" and I drive all day everyday zero issues lol. Oh and I run a loud tri-y header w 3" piping haha.
I appreciate these videos, it sucks that this stuff happens, but I'm looking at modifying my own car and I'm trying to figure out how far to push it while still keeping it legal/safe/cop happy, but you're helping people avoid running into the same fines by sharing your experiences, thanks and good luck with the state ref!
If you think you have a picnic table on your car rear end then you ask yourself if your waving someone to eat donut 🍩 on your car while writing you a ticket... And your wheel definitely need alignment and your clearance is lower than a lawn mower then definitely it's illegal. Louder than a chain saw then its illegal. Mine is louder than a chainsaw but put it in a high gear infront of the cops will make you stealth around them.
I got state reffed for exhaust but I ended up paying the fine upfront which was $200. The Clerk at the window didn’t even mention that I can pay the fine and clear the citation even after I asked her what all my options were. I think you would have to mention that option to them.
A T lol damn I’ve lived here my whole life and I’ve never been caught racing. Sorry to hear about that bro and I was referring mostly to the laws like loud exhausts and being too low. I’ve never heard of someone getting a ticket for that unless they were looking for it like revving next to a cop car.
It's illegal to park in a red zone, illegal to speed, illegal to have camber that extreme! You knew that and did it anyway, so! Cops are pigs only to those who break the law when they know it is unlawful!
Go report the ones you know who are robbing and killing then.. You're acting like the cops already don't have cops in units that focuses on that. Plus, no one wants to talk or cooperate with the police when something happens. Cops only have a limited amount of resources to work with when crime happens. No cooperation or witnesses = nothing the cops can do in court.
REAL TAWK You’re acting like a blatantly loud exhaust or 10 foot ironing board wing doesn’t draw unnecessary attention to cops that are always patrolling the streets. Hahaha
As long as the clowns want to keep being stupid the police will be focused on the car scene. It makes me sad to have one car that is pretty illegal by the books that I have to be selective where I drive but I at least have a second one that is mildly modified and gets me seat time. I’d gladly make my car legal and cleaner than new if we didn’t have such ignorant laws that are designed more to make money than for safety or emissions.
Sick Nissan Altima at 2:25 !!! .... nothing like a FWD 1.8 ltr, automatic, rare silver color, cloth seats, 0-60 in 9.4 seconds. Love fast and rare cars, thank you!!!
For full inspection it’s a 25$ fee. If it’s for just exhaust it’s 108$ so you got lucky. You’re going to have to go to court and plead no contest, not guilty or innocent. Then you pay another 25$ for the court fee. If you pay the fine in full to not go to the process it will stay on your vehicle record. Just fix it and it shows that it never happened. Been state ref’d 4 times in my STI it’s not too crazy if you just fix what they got you for. Keep in mind I’m from the valley and absolutely EVERYTHING (motor wise) has to go back to stock. I’d say you can try fighting it but if the cop shows up to court you might lose. My Instagram is @Trapfundz if you have anymore questions
I’m not sure if this was a fluke or is a loophole but a buddy got a ref ticket and let it go to collections. He paid the ticket out of collections and it does not show anything on his car or record.
The biggest problem I've said it before and I will say it again is No consistent standard which is a violation of equal protection. A clearly defined standard like most States have.
Come move to Arizona cops love us car people they sometimes help us at meets and will pull us over to ask us questions take pictures of the cars and laugh with us our car laws are sooo slim u can do almost everything and anything
I went to Bondurant there and they had a HUGE auto park for every kind of racing and auto events. Loved to see the acceptance of car culture there (and had a bucket-list blast at Bondurant Racing School).
Def a sting op Chris I'm a car guy tooI would just pay fine but you gave me great advice ab life I'm going to apply as I quit and take drug test for new job.👍 ❤️the whip bro!
Old modder here. First, let me say I like your style youngblood. The stance on her is on point. Second, talk to your girl. Different days, different plays; especially out there in Cali. A "mouthy" chick is sexy...at the right time and in the right place. Third, air bags....u know better. Finally, str8 pipes. That's a tough one cuz i know the benefits (on a track) but as a street mod, especially in Cali?? The overall work is so nice, you'd still get the nods without the str8s. Plus, at the end of the day, not worth it. Better to get a daily driver and a trailer if u just gotta have it. Anyway, good luck bruh...keep it clean!
My friend has gotten reffed in CA for exhaust multiple times, he said the ref didn’t care if his car was slammed or not. Might be different in your case cause the cop mentioned the ride height, but in my friends case he just had to put his stock exhaust / headers on and get it smogged and cleared. Hope that helps 👍🏼
I understand your frustration but you know what you’re getting into when living in CA. Keep your head up and don’t let it get to you🙏 Those cops could’ve been a lot worse.
@@The3dprintice Now they make you pop the hood on the street and take pictures. Usta was you would just put the CARB approved crap back on and get it checked then remove and replace it. Be good till the next mandatory check and repeat the on/off process again. It is all a tax collection scheme and favors those that paid for the privileged of making, selling & putting the approved crap on the engines. The real rub is the sniffer on the tail pipe probably can't tell the difference. Sometimes it actually works better as a 'pollution solution'. But Forney wants to get rid of personal transportation for average Joe. Yep that will work out good in TX. Just one of the headaches I left in 2000. If I never set foot in CA again. It will be too soon
@KingJustice98 first off, why’d you delete your comment? Second of all, never included any of those you said. Third of all, clearly you been on the wrong side of car community if you like doing is being obnoxious and arrogant. Check yourself “King Justice”
@@rs72098 yeah the bike community is 10x worse, sorry. The loudest exhausts I hear are bikes. Bikes aren’t getting pulled for that. Bikes drive like idiots and get lane split privileges. Yet, they have baseless campaigns protecting them like “loud pipes save lives” and “look twice save a life”. There is a lot of corruption in traffic laws, California especially, and it needs to change. If people are zoomin down dense residential areas at quiet hours then those are the people that should be pulled. But on an empty highway? A car meet off a busy street where people are driving normally? That’s ridiculous.
honestly i hate the Cali laws, I live up in NorCal, so I’ll be sending down some love brother❤️ we can’t even love our cars without getting a ticket for it
You're car is bad ass bro! Put bags on it! You should put an exhaust with a cutout dump valve switch on it! And you'll pretty much keep it how you want it!
Same thing happened to me. I had to put my car back to stock took it to the state ref had to pay a couple hundreds of dollars for the inspection. Had to pay to get my car back to stock had to miss a couple days of work during the process. Court day comes and I have all my paperwork in hand ready to show the judge. Judge says “the officer that pulled you over didn’t show up to court, case dismissed. Would you like a copy of your case’s dismissal?” The point is that if I would’ve known the cop wasn’t going to show up I wouldn’t have put my car back to stock. Idk if you want to take that risk tho.
4:08 I didn’t know that police had a crystal ball so he stops criminal activity before criminal activity starts and he knows who’s going to start behaving badly. I hate to be his wife.
I’am glad I live in the Netherlands. You can do anything to your car as long as you pass the annual amt. the one I’m jealous of is your small license plate
unfortunately most state driving rules are super sucks and the cops are seriously stupid they prefer to have young generation being a thug life than have them be at a car meet enjoying the day with car enthusiastic .its petty and they need to change lots of rules and i don't get why he open your hood he is not a mechanic but it goes to show the abuse of you being young so if u ask me he was being a peace of shit. move to FL that shit don't happen here .and he had no right to tell you to leave when your ca pay taxes and its register and insured ok , DONT LET THEM RUN YOUR PROPERTY AS THEY WANT WHEN ITS IN ALL THE LAW RIGHT BRO
I live in middle bumfuck Illinois. Lived in ny. No inspection here, no emission laws, straight pipe, slammed, etc. they don’t care as long as they can see you through you windows up to 25%, see your taillights and you car isn’t extremely loud.
If you do the early morning stuff like cars and coffee they tend to leave you alone but I won’t hardly take my car out after dark now because of paranoia.
I really don’t understand these cops, I respect them for what they do and what they deal with on a day to day basis, but why is it fair for trucks to have lift kits on them, and for bikers to have stupid loud exhausts but it’s not fair for a regular car enthusiast who has a semi loud exhaust to casually drive down the street without getting pulled over and state reffed. Bikers can go between lanes which is unsafe and Harleys are much louder than cars and they don’t get cited for anything and yet cars are still safer to drive. Instead of responding or pulling over someone who speeds, they go after the sound of the car.
Go report the ones you know who are robbing and killing then.. You're acting like the cops already don't have cops in units that focuses on that. Plus, no one wants to talk or cooperate with the police when something happens. Cops only have a limited amount of resources to work with when crime happens.

Instead of robbing and killing they annoy the crap out of their neighbors at night. You're right, you do have to compare it to murder to make it seem legit.
Damn man this sucks bad. I feel for you homie. I remember driving home from NY and I was given 4 tickets by a cop without him saying one word to me. Tickets were about $1600
hey dude i jus got a gnarly ticket for going 116mph on the 101 & got state reffed for intake & exhaust. my ticket was originally $1440 not including state ref fee's. So I was bummed like you & didnt wanna go back to stock on anything, so i set up my court date. Mind you i still have my mods on the car but can't drive it til i get it state reffed. So my court date came, I went in & pled guilty to speeding over 100mph & he dismissed my state illegal emissions violation & lowered my fee to $285.00. MY MIND WAS BLOWN I WANTED TO THANK HIM OVER & OVER!!! He not only lowered my fees tremendously, but dismissed the smog state ref shit. I was like yesss, now I dont have spend time & money removing all those aftermarket parts. So go to court first before going to the state ref.
Hope y'all realize it's not illegal to have a car lowered its just considered unsafe. Its also not illegal to have that sound... If he has a muffler then they cannot legally give him a ticket and win in a court. The worst he can get is actually a sound ordinance violation in which they can ask for a quieter muffler.
ZachSuhy Not true out here. The problem now with a sound level ticket is it requires a state ref to be signed off. The other part of the law is that it is at the officer’s discretion as to what he thinks is loud and you are then stuck with this process. It isn’t a you are x amount of decibels just simply you are modified and off to be reffed.
@@rallen2777 the thing is by state law you can fight it in court, there's no laws saying you can't modify, it just states you have to follow certain rules. I looked it up after watching this video and everything on that ticket is trash, there isn't single thing you can't fight in court because everything he has done to the car is legal. The only thing I'm not sure is if he has gotten emissions tested. Cops can't legally go off there discretion, they have rules to follow as well to make sure its not unfair treatment.
ZachSuhy I agree with you but this exhaust law is stupid. If a cop believes your exhaust exceeds 95db he tickets you and you get reffed. The thing is though that they don’t have to prove your car is over 95 dB to write you the ticket. Everything can be disputed in court but it just sucks to get the ref process as they check everything and not just the exhaust. When it was a fix it ticket you either had to get it fixed or signed off but the part about this new law that I hate is the discretion that tickets you without any actual proof and starts the ref process.
I get there is some really nice aspects of Cali, I just could never live under the boot of this nonsense. Shit, I live in WA and people here complain like it's just cold Cali. Nah, I rip in a straight piped mr2 with a fuck ton of modifications and NEVER have been pulled over for any of them.
I'm so glad they stopped him, I feel so much safer now 🤦♂️ it's not the cops fault, they are doing their job but the law on modified cars suck bro, like we live once, let the car enthusiasts enjoy their hobby that puts a smile on them.
Its just you. FR-S's are flat-out best driver-skill cars. Superb chassis combined with some good tires and you can shock cars costing three-four times as much at the track by beating them in the corners. Its a skilled driver's car, but you see "boys" in 'em bc they're affordable, good-looking, and fantastic to drive. Full-on respect for FR-S/BRZ/GT86 owners!
it has supreme handling and balance, is a new reliable rwd car (Not many of those left), and comes in a standard. Boy racers are gonna buy it because as far as a fun daily goes it really cant be beat, and older people have the money to have a daily and a weekend car. Stop hating on the best platform currently being produced lmao
@@brendenwhiteley3847 You hit the nail on the head! I LOVE driving my son's FR-S, but as an "older person", I do indeed have a weekend car. If I didn't love top-down driving so much (I have an S2000), I would have an FR-S or equivalent model in a heartbeat. Actually considering finding one with higher mileage to make into a track car. Miatas have always been considered the best overall car for learning to race, but I am now convinced the "86" platform has it beat. Better yet, it can be driven as a daily and has leg and headroom for tall people.
@@BobC59 i would actually consider getting a higher mileage s2k as a track car, they can be had for less money and have a lot more potential out the gates as a track car. The fr-s is a great daily sports car but for a focused weekend or track car i think you are doing great with the s2000.
Cops (and everyone) dislike rice. I used to get stopped in my Boosted Integra all the time. Even at stock height and no tint. I bought a Camaro SS and now I have cops asking me to bust a pull on the road when I'm just cruising around. And I have a intake, tune and full exhaust, long tube headers, no cats, and cam. And I live in Los Angeles. It's all your appearance and driving style.
Im so sorry bro, I hope everything works out for you. California must really suck to be a car enthusiast. Illinois and Chicago are becoming like that. Im heading to Florida

Teo Hernandez it ridiculous on 4 of July too I did illegal fireworks which I shouldn’t have but I was on 3 to last Excalibur shell saw a black car at stop sign I knew it was the cops because they waited for me to shot it off but then city next to me retards shooting illegal fireworks at each other they never came to me I’m only the one got the ticket
I’m literally so happy I live in Ohio where there is no restrictions for lowered cars or loud cars. Man y’all be safe out there🙌🏻
wdym lmao I got pulled over this morning for my exhaust its not even 100 db
I got a 2010 Camaro 2ss with long tube headers to straight pipes and I’ve haven’t gotten pulled over for the noise YET and I live in base housing it might just be the area your in man.
I get the impression that the only vehicle acceptable at a car meet will be stock minivans, according to CA.
And I will NEVER understand why you’re not allowed to “overly modify your car”. It’s your car, you’re paying for it lol
CRiMZUHN glad I’m in Texas, they’re not to strict here.
Crypt Artic fortunately, I haven’t modified my car too much but I live in KY and I haven’t seen anyone pulled over like chris has😂
You can mod it but the engine parts must be state legal.
Lost Chicken At Sea sounds whack to me
CRiMZUHN It is whack but nobody be giving a fuck lol. But we have to deal with the consequences of getting caught.
Damn man the look on your face when it happened I know how that feels
Time to move to AZ where living is cheap and we have no shity car laws!
Isaiah Kendrix don’t your cars melt
john doe depending on the day🤷🏾♂️when you wash your car it goes back to normal car shape haha
Isaiah Kendrix so we can have the same mofo people voting for the same shitty laws they have in California. No thanks. Them people can stay in commiefornistan.
Isaiah Kendrix or new york where they look at you but mind there business.
Facts, I have an engine swap w zero emissions stuff,no catalysts, ecu that says " for of road use only" and I drive all day everyday zero issues lol. Oh and I run a loud tri-y header w 3" piping haha.
Nice that you played your part with respect and kept positive the whole time
"this is normally aspirated right?" what a clown... omegalol
Nope after watching this, you couldn't make me live in California.
BestGreene has know but the weather is so great.
It isnt that bad he fucked up
Yeah shit-hole county, didn't trump say that?
Thechanically RUclips is your work so you could have stayed🤷🏾♂️
I was bout to say the same thing
I appreciate these videos, it sucks that this stuff happens, but I'm looking at modifying my own car and I'm trying to figure out how far to push it while still keeping it legal/safe/cop happy, but you're helping people avoid running into the same fines by sharing your experiences, thanks and good luck with the state ref!
If you think you have a picnic table on your car rear end then you ask yourself if your waving someone to eat donut 🍩 on your car while writing you a ticket...
And your wheel definitely need alignment and your clearance is lower than a lawn mower then definitely it's illegal.
Louder than a chain saw then its illegal.
Mine is louder than a chainsaw but put it in a high gear infront of the cops will make you stealth around them.
The Lesson: Don't mod cars in Cali. What's the point if the second you drive it they're going to make you take it all off?
All I get from these vids, as a car guy, is to never move to Cali
I got state reffed for exhaust but I ended up paying the fine upfront which was $200. The Clerk at the window didn’t even mention that I can pay the fine and clear the citation even after I asked her what all my options were. I think you would have to mention that option to them.
I feel your pain man. Come over to AZ the laws and streets are car enthusiast friendly.
But its hot as balls outs there.
iLove Buhbbles you can’t have it all my friend.
A T lol damn I’ve lived here my whole life and I’ve never been caught racing. Sorry to hear about that bro and I was referring mostly to the laws like loud exhausts and being too low. I’ve never heard of someone getting a ticket for that unless they were looking for it like revving next to a cop car.
Come to Chicago
Them pigs need to stop wasting time pulling people over for car modifications. Go catch some real criminals smfh
Yeah like those wannabe racers that nearly run people over and cause accidents because they can’t drive! Hahaha
It's illegal to park in a red zone, illegal to speed, illegal to have camber that extreme! You knew that and did it anyway, so! Cops are pigs only to those who break the law when they know it is unlawful!
Go report the ones you know who are robbing and killing then.. You're acting like the cops already don't have cops in units that focuses on that. Plus, no one wants to talk or cooperate with the police when something happens. Cops only have a limited amount of resources to work with when crime happens. No cooperation or witnesses = nothing the cops can do in court.
REAL TAWK You’re acting like a blatantly loud exhaust or 10 foot ironing board wing doesn’t draw unnecessary attention to cops that are always patrolling the streets. Hahaha
As long as the clowns want to keep being stupid the police will be focused on the car scene. It makes me sad to have one car that is pretty illegal by the books that I have to be selective where I drive but I at least have a second one that is mildly modified and gets me seat time. I’d gladly make my car legal and cleaner than new if we didn’t have such ignorant laws that are designed more to make money than for safety or emissions.
Come to Ny one day you might like it, car meets at 3 am just driving on BQE, just having fun on clear roads next to the manhattan skyline
that sounds like a trip worth
you guys have the shittiest roads in all of the USA. The worse potholes and afwul pavement everywhere fuck that. You new yorkers are losers
Sick Nissan Altima at 2:25 !!! .... nothing like a FWD 1.8 ltr, automatic, rare silver color, cloth seats, 0-60 in 9.4 seconds. Love fast and rare cars, thank you!!!
For full inspection it’s a 25$ fee. If it’s for just exhaust it’s 108$ so you got lucky. You’re going to have to go to court and plead no contest, not guilty or innocent. Then you pay another 25$ for the court fee. If you pay the fine in full to not go to the process it will stay on your vehicle record. Just fix it and it shows that it never happened. Been state ref’d 4 times in my STI it’s not too crazy if you just fix what they got you for. Keep in mind I’m from the valley and absolutely EVERYTHING (motor wise) has to go back to stock. I’d say you can try fighting it but if the cop shows up to court you might lose. My Instagram is @Trapfundz if you have anymore questions
HOEZAY I agree with you been to ref once had to go back to stock
I’m not sure if this was a fluke or is a loophole but a buddy got a ref ticket and let it go to collections. He paid the ticket out of collections and it does not show anything on his car or record.
The law be trippin fr fr like it’s not like he’s doing drugs or other worse things on these streets
The biggest problem I've said it before and I will say it again is No consistent standard which is a violation of equal protection. A clearly defined standard like most States have.
Come move to Arizona cops love us car people they sometimes help us at meets and will pull us over to ask us questions take pictures of the cars and laugh with us our car laws are sooo slim u can do almost everything and anything
I went to Bondurant there and they had a HUGE auto park for every kind of racing and auto events. Loved to see the acceptance of car culture there (and had a bucket-list blast at Bondurant Racing School).
Def a sting op Chris I'm a car guy tooI would just pay fine but you gave me great advice ab life I'm going to apply as I quit and take drug test for new job.👍
❤️the whip bro!
Old modder here. First, let me say I like your style youngblood. The stance on her is on point. Second, talk to your girl. Different days, different plays; especially out there in Cali. A "mouthy" chick is sexy...at the right time and in the right place. Third, air bags....u know better. Finally, str8 pipes. That's a tough one cuz i know the benefits (on a track) but as a street mod, especially in Cali?? The overall work is so nice, you'd still get the nods without the str8s. Plus, at the end of the day, not worth it. Better to get a daily driver and a trailer if u just gotta have it. Anyway, good luck bruh...keep it clean!
My friend has gotten reffed in CA for exhaust multiple times, he said the ref didn’t care if his car was slammed or not. Might be different in your case cause the cop mentioned the ride height, but in my friends case he just had to put his stock exhaust / headers on and get it smogged and cleared. Hope that helps 👍🏼
“Normally aspirated” 😂
Prayers go out to all the stance bois in CA 🙏🙏
Man how miserable to live in cali as a car enthusiast so sad man and ridiculous. Ya'll should come down here to FL.
*_This is California for us automotive enthusiast..._*
“GiVe HiM A wArNiNg”
I understand your frustration but you know what you’re getting into when living in CA. Keep your head up and don’t let it get to you🙏 Those cops could’ve been a lot worse.
I left because I got tired of getting Californicated
@@warrenpuckett4203 Same. DMV wouldn’t let me renew my vehicle registration because of an intake
@@The3dprintice Now they make you pop the hood on the street and take pictures.
Usta was you would just put the CARB approved crap back on and get it checked then remove and replace it. Be good till the next mandatory check and repeat the on/off process again.
It is all a tax collection scheme and favors those that paid for the privileged of making, selling & putting the approved crap on the engines.
The real rub is the sniffer on the tail pipe probably can't tell the difference. Sometimes it actually works better as a 'pollution solution'. But Forney wants to get rid of personal transportation for average Joe.
Yep that will work out good in TX.
Just one of the headaches I left in 2000.
If I never set foot in CA again. It will be too soon
That’s commiefornia for ya lmao come to the east coast
It's ridiculous how in American that state is
My challenger is straight piped and louder than your FRS and passed by multiple cops and they have yet to pull me over for that.
Bryan Galvan It’s a muscle car, come on now you should know cops are interested n imports
This is the first video I saw of yours! Been a subscriber since. Proud of you bro👊
How about we as the car community try and get a new bill passed or some sorts #carlivesmatter
Don't include me in your immature "I wanna be annoyingly loud to my neighbors at night" car club. Sounds like a biker gang to me.
@KingJustice98 first off, why’d you delete your comment? Second of all, never included any of those you said. Third of all, clearly you been on the wrong side of car community if you like doing is being obnoxious and arrogant. Check yourself “King Justice”
@@rs72098 yeah the bike community is 10x worse, sorry. The loudest exhausts I hear are bikes. Bikes aren’t getting pulled for that. Bikes drive like idiots and get lane split privileges. Yet, they have baseless campaigns protecting them like “loud pipes save lives” and “look twice save a life”. There is a lot of corruption in traffic laws, California especially, and it needs to change.
If people are zoomin down dense residential areas at quiet hours then those are the people that should be pulled. But on an empty highway? A car meet off a busy street where people are driving normally? That’s ridiculous.
honestly i hate the Cali laws, I live up in NorCal, so I’ll be sending down some love brother❤️
we can’t even love our cars without getting a ticket for it
Damn dude I feel for you, kinda happy I’m moving to FL where cops really don’t care. Hope you get it taken care of.
Man we can do whatever here in FL. Welcome! just dont vote for those same california laws over here man alright? ;)
You're car is bad ass bro! Put bags on it! You should put an exhaust with a cutout dump valve switch on it! And you'll pretty much keep it how you want it!
HEKTIK405 bags 🤮
imagine being a car guy in cali i could never
Move to Texas, it's the wild west out here. You can do pretty much anything to your car and cops don't care.
Im straight piped driving by cops they dont even care.
Haha fuck yea I live in dfw and ain’t ever seen crazy modded cars get pulled over
No cap. I swear they dont care out here. People always meet up and go race in mexico. 🤣🤷🏽♂️
I have a feeling Houston is headed in the same direction. Slide shows every night blocking intersections and highways...
Cops everywhere now
@Unknown Person fuck that you guys pay for inspection lmao it's free where I live and cops don't give a shit about cars
I hate living in California. All I have on my 2019 WRX is a axle back and I feel paranoid af driving it.
Same thing happened to me. I had to put my car back to stock took it to the state ref had to pay a couple hundreds of dollars for the inspection. Had to pay to get my car back to stock had to miss a couple days of work during the process.
Court day comes and I have all my paperwork in hand ready to show the judge.
Judge says “the officer that pulled you over didn’t show up to court, case dismissed. Would you like a copy of your case’s dismissal?”
The point is that if I would’ve known the cop wasn’t going to show up I wouldn’t have put my car back to stock.
Idk if you want to take that risk tho.
4:08 I didn’t know that police had a crystal ball so he stops criminal activity before criminal activity starts and he knows who’s going to start behaving badly. I hate to be his wife.
I’am glad I live in the Netherlands. You can do anything to your car as long as you pass the annual amt.
the one I’m jealous of is your small license plate
Not many places like that in EU, man. Enjoy while it lasts
We can only blame side shows for this. Smh ruining the car scene
bag it dude. that's what i did after i got sick of cops saying "you're too low"
I got a ticket for "unsafe suspension" when I was bagged.
Do they really say that lmao
Alan Oneal yup
Gets stopped at McDonald’s, 2 minutes later, gets stopped at Burger King lls
Jason Hernandez that’s the most criminal part of the whole thing. If he’d been pulling into an In-N-Out then they’d be a lot cooler. 😬
@@AnAutoEnthusiastsLife Burger Joints and Donut Shops are cop territory !
Not a mustang fan but your buddies grey stang is pretty badass
unfortunately most state driving rules are super sucks and the cops are seriously stupid they prefer to have young generation being a thug life than have them be at a car meet enjoying the day with car enthusiastic .its petty and they need to change lots of rules and i don't get why he open your hood he is not a mechanic but it goes to show the abuse of you being young so if u ask me he was being a peace of shit. move to FL that shit don't happen here .and he had no right to tell you to leave when your ca pay taxes and its register and insured ok , DONT LET THEM RUN YOUR PROPERTY AS THEY WANT WHEN ITS IN ALL THE LAW RIGHT BRO
Lol Midwest is so easy to be a car guy 😂💪 cali got y’all messed up
I live in middle bumfuck Illinois. Lived in ny. No inspection here, no emission laws, straight pipe, slammed, etc. they don’t care as long as they can see you through you windows up to 25%, see your taillights and you car isn’t extremely loud.
Take off exhaust and stop going to meets bro i live in cali, and cops wont harass you, i drive slammed frs cambered out
Exactly! Most exhausts don’t increase a cars performance anyways. Just a waste of money.
Yup. Ive learned my lesson! No more meets.
If you do the early morning stuff like cars and coffee they tend to leave you alone but I won’t hardly take my car out after dark now because of paranoia.
Jimmy C that’s depends if you tune it. But it does increase performance just not noticeable.
Cool story bro
That stance is crazy. What spring rates are you running?
I really don’t understand these cops, I respect them for what they do and what they deal with on a day to day basis, but why is it fair for trucks to have lift kits on them, and for bikers to have stupid loud exhausts but it’s not fair for a regular car enthusiast who has a semi loud exhaust to casually drive down the street without getting pulled over and state reffed. Bikers can go between lanes which is unsafe and Harleys are much louder than cars and they don’t get cited for anything and yet cars are still safer to drive. Instead of responding or pulling over someone who speeds, they go after the sound of the car.
Damn… poped for lowering it… CA is out of control..
Ppl just put having decent fun with their hobby/friends and this happens🤦♂️... could be out robbing and killing.
Go report the ones you know who are robbing and killing then.. You're acting like the cops already don't have cops in units that focuses on that.

@@MortalWombat22 you took it to far. I'm saying thz individuals & myself have a honest hobby. They could be out doing those things. Time money and ideas go into thz builds and you think itd be ok to mingle in an open area show it off and have fun but instead you get what happens to u in this video.
REAL TAWK Stfu white knight pussy
Instead of robbing and killing they annoy the crap out of their neighbors at night. You're right, you do have to compare it to murder to make it seem legit.
Damn man this sucks bad. I feel for you homie. I remember driving home from NY and I was given 4 tickets by a cop without him saying one word to me. Tickets were about $1600
It’s CA ya’ll if you have a loud a/&: exhaust and your ride is flashy af expect to be a cop magnet guaranteed.
♥️♥️♥️ your car..
Why don’t you get papers to legally have tints
hey dude i jus got a gnarly ticket for going 116mph on the 101 & got state reffed for intake & exhaust. my ticket was originally $1440 not including state ref fee's.
So I was bummed like you & didnt wanna go back to stock on anything, so i set up my court date. Mind you i still have my mods on the car but can't drive it til i get it state reffed. So my court date came, I went in & pled guilty to speeding over 100mph & he dismissed my state illegal emissions violation & lowered my fee to $285.00.
MY MIND WAS BLOWN I WANTED TO THANK HIM OVER & OVER!!! He not only lowered my fees tremendously, but dismissed the smog state ref shit. I was like yesss, now I dont have spend time & money removing all those aftermarket parts.
So go to court first before going to the state ref.
Hope y'all realize it's not illegal to have a car lowered its just considered unsafe. Its also not illegal to have that sound... If he has a muffler then they cannot legally give him a ticket and win in a court. The worst he can get is actually a sound ordinance violation in which they can ask for a quieter muffler.
ZachSuhy Not true out here. The problem now with a sound level ticket is it requires a state ref to be signed off. The other part of the law is that it is at the officer’s discretion as to what he thinks is loud and you are then stuck with this process. It isn’t a you are x amount of decibels just simply you are modified and off to be reffed.
@@rallen2777 the thing is by state law you can fight it in court, there's no laws saying you can't modify, it just states you have to follow certain rules. I looked it up after watching this video and everything on that ticket is trash, there isn't single thing you can't fight in court because everything he has done to the car is legal. The only thing I'm not sure is if he has gotten emissions tested. Cops can't legally go off there discretion, they have rules to follow as well to make sure its not unfair treatment.
ZachSuhy I agree with you but this exhaust law is stupid. If a cop believes your exhaust exceeds 95db he tickets you and you get reffed. The thing is though that they don’t have to prove your car is over 95 dB to write you the ticket. Everything can be disputed in court but it just sucks to get the ref process as they check everything and not just the exhaust. When it was a fix it ticket you either had to get it fixed or signed off but the part about this new law that I hate is the discretion that tickets you without any actual proof and starts the ref process.
@@rallen2777 ok i see what your saying, that's retarded and California is going downhill fast.
Damn I’m so glad cops don’t pop hoods here and check stuff in my state
Bro Cali sucks, in Florida we can be as loud as we want, with as much camber as we want 😒
MBN!
Daniel Gonzalez but gotta deal with hurricanes tho 😂 i don’t want that fucker destroying cars
thats why no one wants to live there. trashiest state lol
Vince Haylem ok come to Miami and tell me your city is any better lol
Go to Florida if you want to feel like you have to take a shower as soon as you walk out the door.
I get there is some really nice aspects of Cali, I just could never live under the boot of this nonsense. Shit, I live in WA and people here complain like it's just cold Cali. Nah, I rip in a straight piped mr2 with a fuck ton of modifications and NEVER have been pulled over for any of them.
Shheeesh
Human : *breaths*
Cop : sign this citation, see you in court in few months
I'm so glad they stopped him, I feel so much safer now 🤦♂️ it's not the cops fault, they are doing their job but the law on modified cars suck bro, like we live once, let the car enthusiasts enjoy their hobby that puts a smile on them.
Is it just me are 95% of FR-S owners BRZ and 86 little boy racers
they aren't boosted, so they jus for show & slow.
Its just you. FR-S's are flat-out best driver-skill cars. Superb chassis combined with some good tires and you can shock cars costing three-four times as much at the track by beating them in the corners. Its a skilled driver's car, but you see "boys" in 'em bc they're affordable, good-looking, and fantastic to drive. Full-on respect for FR-S/BRZ/GT86 owners!
it has supreme handling and balance, is a new reliable rwd car (Not many of those left), and comes in a standard. Boy racers are gonna buy it because as far as a fun daily goes it really cant be beat, and older people have the money to have a daily and a weekend car. Stop hating on the best platform currently being produced lmao
@@brendenwhiteley3847 You hit the nail on the head! I LOVE driving my son's FR-S, but as an "older person", I do indeed have a weekend car. If I didn't love top-down driving so much (I have an S2000), I would have an FR-S or equivalent model in a heartbeat.
Actually considering finding one with higher mileage to make into a track car. Miatas have always been considered the best overall car for learning to race, but I am now convinced the "86" platform has it beat. Better yet, it can be driven as a daily and has leg and headroom for tall people.
@@BobC59 i would actually consider getting a higher mileage s2k as a track car, they can be had for less money and have a lot more potential out the gates as a track car. The fr-s is a great daily sports car but for a focused weekend or track car i think you are doing great with the s2000.
Did he say “normally aspirated” 🤔
Cops (and everyone) dislike rice. I used to get stopped in my Boosted Integra all the time. Even at stock height and no tint. I bought a Camaro SS and now I have cops asking me to bust a pull on the road when I'm just cruising around. And I have a intake, tune and full exhaust, long tube headers, no cats, and cam. And I live in Los Angeles. It's all your appearance and driving style.
My son having the same problem .
I just told him to register your car in Nevada since his mom has a address in Nevada 😂😂 hahaha
Time to move to Texas, save you the money and headache 🤷♂️
sixhorses yeah cops don’t care in texas lmao
Cop: any questions?
Me: can I have some McDonald's first before going home? 😢
Im so sorry bro, I hope everything works out for you. California must really suck to be a car enthusiast. Illinois and Chicago are becoming like that. Im heading to Florida
How is it illegal to modify your ride when the hellcats got 700hp???
FDA approved by USA 🇺🇸
Wait wait wait hold up what if you just have a bunch of fake state ref tickets and just change the date
Love driving my slammed EF back 2 Cali an the cops break their neck to pull behind me and 😠when they see my AZ plate 😎
california riverside they can still pull you over and waste your time with a bs ticket. It just won’t hold up in court.
Gotta love living in Cali. 🙄 find someone you know who lives in NV. And Register your car over there.
how does this work? is it illegal?
I got a Boosted Civic Si 07 she’s roided and loud
Glad I left to Oklahoma
What I think . C.A living sucks . The police harasses every import modified cars.. They see you from a mile away wait for you to pass right infront of the so can can give you the blue light special. That's why I move out of that country and started a new life here in the philippines. All the shit we Wanna do to our cars is all legal. No cops harassment. Here the cops are so cool that they even give u a thumbs up for have a nices car.
Bro, you gotta get outta that state!! When he said your night was over i was bummed right with you.
