What do your neighbors think?
so my car is open downpipe... and its really loud
i get home late at night (2-3am) on average and apparently 3 of my neighbors went and complained to the cops that i go too fast through the neighborhood when in actuality i do the speed limit... i guess it just sounds faster
i cant wait for the cop to come knock on my door :D

Re: (mikeymcm)
My neighbors are useless. They have not complained about my cars yet, but they did call the cops on me numerous times for riding my quad and dirtbikes around the yard and feilds. And "yelled" at me a couple times for doing a burnout in my own driveway

So put the exhaust back on!!! If you KNOW it is loud running open downpipe and coming home at 2-3 AM that is just plain rude and disrepectful. People have jobs and kids, maybe these people need to sleep and get up early. So show some respect, when I was younger YEAH I used to get on it everywhere I went, what a douche I was back then.

I'd say the neighbors have a right to be pissed if you come home in the middle of the night with no exhaust. I at least turn the car off and coast once I get into my neighborhood.

Re: What do your neighbors think? (wantboost)
I used to do the same but now its not funny when it happens to me! The stuff your doing will happen to you.. believe me.....
not only does that bother the crap out of me but when people come by and drive fast where they know children are around or its late and people are trying to sleep..
1 more thing its not kool to rev the **** out of your motor to come out his house to go to the runs. two guys across the street always do this then rev right past the house....if I were to catch them doen the street 1 day I will let them have a piece of my mind!

Re: What do your neighbors think? (wantboost)
My neighbors where i live dont complain too much, but when i tune cars over in my parents garage in their retirement gated community neighbor hood the neighbors get pissed. Even when i'm plain old working on my car during the day and not making noise. They've gotten 4 letters in the mail threatening court stuff ....apparantely doing anything on your car yourself is against their neighborhood rules

Re: What do your neighbors think? (wantboost)
My neighbor is a cop, and the guy across the street is a retired cop. They're both cool. The woman diagonal to me made a comment about my car when she was complaining about the flood light in my driveway. Something like "I don't really mind your car, but we're used to the darkness around here. Does it have to stay on all night?" Another woman yelled at me to slow down when I was gently accelerating to about 25 just a few houses up from mine. She was on her hands and knees picking weeds out of the cracks in her driveway. I backed up and explained to her that I wasn't speeding, but she didn't seem to believe me, then explained that there were kids playing and she almost hit one. She deserved to be called a stupid bitch, but she's my neighbor so I just drove off. Meanwhile, the neighborhood kids use the street as a go-cart and mini motorcycle track and turn around in my driveway. Anyway, if I'm passing by someone walking, or driving by a cop, even though I'm not speeding I always shift into a higher gear.

Re: What do your neighbors think? (wantboost)
i've been yelled at within my neighborhood by random people who tell me i'm speeding, when i'm putting along at 15mph. I even have a full exhaust. My neighbors don't really mind, I'm the young guy with no kids, so I think they are all mildly invious that I don't have kids and still have an expensive hobby. Although I did have one neighbor come out of her house and give a guy hell who towed his car to me to have it tuned. that was mildly funny.

Re: What do your neighbors think? (juda7)
I don't believe in speeding within neighborhoods at all. But open exhaust is just fine if you don't drive like a crazy person and rev the **** out of the car. I hate neighbors that mistake loud exhaust for speeding though, it drives me crazy. Ecspecially the ones that bitch but they really speed through the neighborhood with their stock quiet cars and think nobody notices.
