k ive been away for a while looking at the 240 forums.
in here i never heard of illegal engines...or even yet how bad CA enforcement is on mods. Reading 240sx forums, ive gained an insight on how much of a pain in the ass it is to have a nice tuned car without getting it impounded or reffed. anyways back to the point, test drove a s14 sr20det today and wow it was pure balls...300 RWHP the car looks stock/black coated exhaust/no tint/ as long as i drive normal, and keep my foot on clutch and coast in neutral around cops, wont i be fine and not have any probable cause for them to pop my hood? asking 6gc for an unbias view on running illegal engines under the hood in socal 2 points:it will be my daily driver 20 mile commute and ill be driving slow in the slow lane. http://zilvia.net/f/cars-sale/231327-ca-s1...-11-000obo.html |

I know a guy who has a Honda civic all fixed up, was driving normal, had his engine ref'd, but not the other mods on it. Cop asked him to pop it for no reason, and impounded it. He got it out, but still, what a hassle it was for him. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204
