REF tickET!

[WISH ONE]

forgot to mention i got this ticket in huntington beach.... have any of you with Sr's or any other modded cars ever gotten a ref ticket? i got one the other day in my 13 and i have no clue how to go about it...he cited me for "not having my aircleaner box" haha... the police man im sure wasnt familiar with nissans...or i would have got my car impounded...he told me all i had to do was put the stock box in there and show it to the ref if he aproves it im good to go... and its $10. but i know theres no way anything is going to get aproved with a red top SR ill fail with a quickness... so i was wondering is there anyway to go around it.. i heard i can just pay a fine/bail amount of like $400+ or around there and they will leave me alone... help anyone.. thanks

i have never heard about this before ever. what is a ref ticket. too bad about this though. i have no information to help you. neither does zilvia. dont waste your time looking at previous posts. there will be nothing useful for you.

That is like one of them fix-it ticket huh? well I had one b4. I paid 118 bucks. Just call the number on the ticket and ask the clerk if you could just pay for the ticket.

dude...if you gettin refed...bad news bears for you...refs are total dicks...put it to you this way...my friend made me rush to put his downpipe,up-pipe,headers,stock cats,and OEM airbox with resonator the night before he got refed, and once he got there they failed him for having silicone hoses,BOV, and a few missing clamps...bs...this is on an 04 Wrx and it all looked stock...so imagine an SR showin up at the ref,if you wanna see some bullshit check this page out

this is tellin you that aftermarket alarms as well as turbo timers are not CARB legal...what kinda shit is that???

back on topic...
they'll examine your car for everything...what was the original reason you were pulled over?

yeah i have been reading some of the threads. but i cant find anything on anyone getting refd in the oRange county area... its all mostly IE...i dont know how diffrent it is from county to county...im assuming it was reg... i was just leaving AAA with the reg papers.. and 15 minutes before i had got cited for no reg... haha on the way to AAA to pay it hahhah... i handed him the papers and i was like here i just got this like 15 minutes ago from another officer... also my car is super loud... i figuered its like 2 blocks i shouldnt ahve any trouble... WRONG... the first cop was at the exit of my neighborhood.. haha

that's really no good man...i wish you the best of luck on that one..and if you find a loop hole let us Californians know about it....

Bro hate to tell u this but, if you have all your mods from your ka before you swap that sr in there. it will be hell putting it back but you safe money. This happened to one of my homies who has an s14 safed all is ka parts officer gave him a ticket long story short he swapt everything back and passed but ass for you it seems that you dont have your parts so yeah good luck

[anotherblusi]

You can just pay it off rather than seeing the ref... think it was around $700-800

damn.. cali sucks to have an SR.. good thing all that shit's legal in vegas. all we have are fix-it's and the inspector's are all chill.. at least from what my friends with fix-it's have told me.. personally, i've never got one.. and i rolled with a open header for a while too.. haha..

Mike, i am so sorry.

A ref ticket is the single worst ticket you can get. Call the court Monday, and find out if you cant just pay it off. This will ruin your car life. What is up with all the bad luck man?

I've already discussed this way too much. Just search for some of my posts on the subject. It pertains to California and the current laws.

Long story short. Pay ticket off and you get a point on your license.
