Ok so a cop with the whole typical I'm an *** personality pulled me over tonight and gave me a repair order on my exhaust saying its too loud. I need to get it signed in 10 days and take it to the station within 30.

I do NOT need to take my car there as you all probably know.

But I will be dam if I am taking my SMS exhaust off especially after the car has been so modified and tuned with hondata for it... I know some mechanics at Performance shops that may sign it for me but besides that I might be screwed? What can I do? Does anyone have any experience or advice to offer?

Thanks again guys

 

How loud is too loud?
What's the appropriate statute/law say?

 

j00 play, joo pay

or just toss on the stock setup for a day and have it passed. pretty simple solution

 

try to make your stock rear section fit your b pipe to pass the "loud" test or whatever.

header wont make too much of differance in loudness

 

had to do this before too dude, just have one of the shops sign the paper and then mail it to the state police, thats all you have to do, you don't even have to take it to the precinct, just mail it

yea well no one will sign it without a cat, and I bought the caR with the sms exhaust already on it soo I don't have anything else to do.

I really just need to borrow a 16 carsound cat for like 1 hour just to pass the exhaust inspection.

 

Ooook soo this repair order on my SMS exhaust is killing me. All i need is a freaking cat to throw on their for like 30 seconds while the guy signs the paper so I can mail it to the cops.

Does anyone in MD have a Cat thats 16" I can throw on there really fast? Even for a day. I am really in a hole right now. I had the old cat but my freaking parents threw it away I think.

Really need help from the R family. I have about 6 days left before I am in trouble. PLease help guys!

Thanks,
Scott

 

Toots..... If my stock one would work I'd overnight it to you. So if you need one as a last resort let me know.

 

hey man how long are the stock ones? the SMS test pipe I ordered and installed is 16" soo I need a Cat ANY cat about 16". even its its a inch longer I could just BS it in there just for like 30 seconds to pass this stupid thing.

I really appreciate it man

 

ok well I found out that its either 18" or 17 and 3/4 about with JDM header. I could prolly make it fit..... but I have a 2.5" sms exhaust... so wouldn't that not bolt up at all?

 

Dunno never measured mine. I think I also have the stock exhaust from my old GS-R laying around somewhere. If you can make it fit let me know.

 

where bouts do you live? I am not 100% sure that a GSR will bolt up to my JDM 4-1 header and fit the rest of the way on the ITR.

Can anyone clarify whether or not this will work or can anyone else help me out with a cat?

 

You sir have PM

 

thanks man. Does anyone have a cat they can help me out with?

 

agile wont sign off on it for you?

Sounds like you need it for more than just "1 hour" unless you want someone to stand there and bolt it up for you, and then take it off the car after the inspection as well.

Yes, I'm just playing with you, because ... you're not really making it worthwhile for anyone to help you out. That, and the fact that you didn't think of this problem beforehand.

what are you talking about worth while for anyone to help me out? And actually if you read the other thread you would know that I took care of the problem except for the small fact that my family threw away my carsound cat which i needed to put back on my exhaust to pass the inspection and get the form signed.

So if anyone has any worthwhile information to offer I would greatly appreciate it.

 

anyone on the night shift?

Ummm, well apparently you haven't taken care of the problem.

And although I can sympathize with you, having lost some valuable car parts in a similar fashion in the past, where does that leave you NOW?

 

These guys are usually helpful, try here:

Are you sure you can't just mail in the signed paper?

 

What cat-back do you have on the car? if it's stock or has the same connections as stock ... IM me.

 

i can mail it in.... but first i need to find a sucker cop or inspection guy to sign the paper.... I might just buy a carsound and keep it as a spare...

 

it SMSP exhaust... with a JDM 4-1 header and 16" SMSP testpipe.

 

LOL! Sign it yourself with some fake info for a shop (or use a real shop's info). Think they'll really check?
