Fix it tickets!

[Bored_Rice]

So my s13 got pulled yesterday for my Blitz Nur spec exhaust in Pasadena. Would they check under my hood for the corrections? (sr20det btw) I was going to trade for a z32 TT, but what would happen if I traded before my court date and I no longer have the car? Any advice guys?

You got lucky and the cop that gave you a ticket didn't pop your hood the first time, maybe you get lucky again when you get your ticket signed off.

post these cali ticket threads in cali forum dude.


Just pay the fine.. Don't even bother checkin out the REF for a exhaust ticket. I had an exhaust ticket before, i think they still look at the motor if i recall.

Sorry I'm a newbie.

You're about to learn something new... that F word will get you pinked so you might want to edit that out of your post.

[Bored_Rice]

Sowhat will happen if I sell/trade the car, will they throw out the case or what?

[I10cruiser]

i just got my fit it ticket done.. they do check the engine. .and i had to go to the ref. . and the 8 dollar fee went up to 25 bucks!:/ gl

[HyperTek]

did you get a ref ticket? or a exhaust fix it ticket?

You dont need to sell your car, that does not work.
Wait for the notice that will be sent to you in the mail., it will have a bail amount, you just pay that bail. Go to court, plead guilty, Judge will give you the option to pay the amount and if you can pay all of it now, tell him you cant, and they will give you an easy payment option. Done

And put a stock exhaust or something thats not stupid loud, esp in cali it aint worth it.. You dont need a stupid loud exhaust for high performance.

[Bored_Rice]

Its just a officer sign off BTW.

[SochBAT]

Similar situation, but he emphasized the 'tampered smog equipment' aka intake.

Weaksos.

[cc4usmc]

Just go with what I said then. If you trade cars before court, you'll have to pay the fine, uncorrected or corrected I don't know.

[Bored_Rice]

If I trade say "sorry your honor, but no longer have possession of this vehicle" compared to going to a police dept for the correction on the fix it and risk them finding more illegal stuff.

[cc4usmc]

Well if you want the z32, then sure. You'll have to show proof that you no longer own the vehicle. When I went to the police department to get my ticket signed off, the security guard was the one who signed it off and he didn't even bother to look anywhere else. But if you don't mind trading, then trade.

[HyperTek]

Ive heard of people who got lucky with that, i dont mean to pull the race card, but they where Caucasian, and Ive seen other people do it, and not so lucky, they have to pay the fine, the judge said "it happened during your time of ownership and you didnt correct it".

it was a fix it ticket. ..the cop even told me to go to the sheriffs office and get it signed off but nO!.. the stupid sheriffs said that i had to go see the ref and sure enough i called and they said i hadd to go:/

I'm a pretty innocent looking Asian kid. Not the HUURR I AM AZN You disrespected my whole family kind. But then again there's a lot of Asians here.

[SochBAT]

Not to sure about rules and what not, but aren't intakes legal?

As longas the intake tube isn't modified, it should be legal, right?

[Bored_Rice]

In california everything is illegal. BOV, intake, header. God this state sucks.

[zilvia_brothers]

yea same thing happened to me couple days ago...i had to go to state ref for my air filter which was connected to the stock MAF and tubing and exhaust ticket. now they're saying i have to weld on the silencer to my exhaust since they passed this law a month ago.

i came to take the decibel test with my silencer and registered with a 93.5. the guy didnt pass me since i had to weld on the silencer.

[cc4usmc]

But this thread isn't about an intake..

[Ricks15]

If its a fix it just pay the bail and F**k fixin it.Well thats what I did:keke::keke::keke: by the way who gave you the ticket?...CHP?

[Bored_Rice]

San Marino PD *sigh*......... I think i will trade withe the z32 TT so I have a excuse why i didn't do it.

was free for me

[cc4usmc]

What was free? Them sighing off your ticket?

took to ref to sign off my exhaust tix had to check if everything was ok like engine ans stuff like that

[cc4usmc]

That's not what the other guy was talking about. When you take your ticket to the courthouse, that's where they charged you $8, but now it's $25. I've gotten tickets for just my exhaust and wasn't required to go to the ref, so it most likely depends where you live.

no...hes talking about when he went to the ref to write off the ticket use to be 8 nows its 25

[cc4usmc]

When I went to the ref to get my car inspected for having headers on my ka, it was like $8.25, but they only charge you when you pass. It used to be like $40. The cost of a fix it ticket at the courthouse used to be $8, but now it's $25. If you said yours was free, how do you know what you're talking about?

my ref inspection was free, i passed. court fees was like 20. i dont think court fees where ever 8. but :blah: :blah: :blah: too tired to argue with you

You just tried to argue with me that the ref charged $8, but now it's free again. And yes, the court fees were $8..and now they are $25.There's no point in you even arguing because you don't know what you're talking about.

Edit: The court fees were $10 before, not $8. I made a mistake, that's beside the point. Either way, it has gone up to $25.

[handinpants]

i need a stock airbox for the sr :o) oh by the way you guys need to know that if you have the exhaust silencer in, it means nothing unless its welded in. sooo

[Bored_Rice]

Man looking back at this ticket... it could have been so much worse. With all the stuff I could have been caught with, I only got slapped with a 2751a modified exhaust infraction. How much do you think this is?

[cc4usmc]

I've already said that. It's $25 if you correct it, if you don't I think it was around $120. Have a police officer sign it off, and before the date on the ticket, take it to the courthouse and pay the fine. If you don't I think it was around $120. But yes, you did get lucky.

[Bored_Rice]

Doesn't the sign off risk me getting caught with a sr?

I guess you missed my first post, which was the first response to your thread.

CC4, i like your sig.

where exactly in pasadena were you at and why san marino pd if you were in pasadena..? IMO san marino p.d are very strict, those chargers are mean too! This is way too close to home and i go to san marino quite often to kick it with friends.

I was on my way to PCC on Los Robles. Sucks extra hard because That made me late for class which got me marked absent. So i could have just slept in without getting a ticket and the outcome would have been a lot better. I saw a s14 and a sti just squeak by with the "damn i feel your pain" face while i was getting written up.


Ok let me rephrase this... If you were in my position, would you A: just pay the bail or B:Risk the chance of the sr getting caught and go get the ticket signed.

[cc4usmc]

Pay the fine.

shieeeeet you can rolll with a cop here without a seatbelt, and the loudest BOV and a fulll catless exhaust and they wouldnt mess with you.


but just for the q. would it be suiciede driving to cali with a loud assss 240 with an rb ?

even if i lived in nevada ?

from what people tell me its like nothing to mess with

this thread is pissing me off.. Just man the f up and wait til you get the mail notice and go from there..

[kevmeistah21]

what car do you drive bored rice? i go to pcc too and i see tons of 240's at pcc and i don't know any other owners.. :/ i've seen a black zenki on sportmax 962's, i think a charcoal s13 hatch with a touke sticker and kouki tails, and some stock looking coupes so far this past week for spring. I drive the white coupe with silvia front, with a f**ked up hood, no grill, and taped lights haha! long story..

White s13 hatch with fucked up front bumper and a autobots sticker on my gas cap.

haha i think i've seen your car before, usually park in the delmar/hill structure right?

[Bored_Rice]

Yeah. Got a parking ticket for not putting up my pass. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu........

[kevmeistah21]

haha i would hit one of those security officers, one is really cute! how much do the tickets cost?

[zylvia213]

i got a fix it ticket on 1/30/09 for modified exhaust. So its $25 if i get it corrected which means swap out the muffler and get something stock, take it to the inspection pay $10 to get it sign off and the $25 at the court total $35.....but im thinking it puts me at risk for them to find out what i got under the hood and what not so.... i called the court and found out that i have 2 options like CC4USMC said pay $25 to get it corrected or just pay the fine which in my case my bail out fine is $250 and i dont have to correct it. Mostly likely ill pay the fine instead of taking chances. What are my chances of them telling me to pop my hood or them getting me for other modified stuff??? Has anyone taken their car for inspection and came out of there with additional citations????

[kevmeistah21]

haha i was talking about the fix it ticket price, i was talking about the parking pass ticket at p.c.c! haha but im glad you misunderstood cause that got me wondering about your question too! Yo zylvia i still have a speed sensor you can have if you still want it.

If you're going to pay the fine, I don't think there will be an inspection... in fact I'm almost guaranteed. You just go to the courthouse, pay them and walk out.

let me know how this goes if anyone decides to go and test your luck!

[Bored_Rice]

The Parking ticket was 25 bucks, but i applied for a appeal and got it down to 5 buck. (WOOT!!!). I think I'm trading my s13 for a m2 turbo. Other offers are 300zx TT, vr4, or a rx7 turbo. What do you guys think? 3sgte is like a twin of the sr20det. Oh also a lancer oz ralliart lol.

[Bored_Rice]

So I payed off the ticket today with no proof and i was charged $168 not too bad I guess. Too bad i got another ticket a few hours later for talking on a cell while driving. Cop complimented my mr2 and asked "so how much ya boostin in thar" like 4 times. :wan:

[!Zar!]

What the fuck.

Why did you pay it off?

All you had to do was put stock exhaust on, find a cop and have him sign it off.

Why would he pop your hood if all you got was an exhaust ticket?

[ronmcdon]

I would have paid it off too.
rather dish out $168 than deal with the hassle & risk.

good choice on mr2 turbo :)

Didn't have my stock pipes. Some cops are a$$hats that will pop your hood for probable cause. (especially in Commifornia)

Thanks cdon the mr2 is pretty nice and no more worrying around cops is nice.

[!Zar!]

I know well of California and the ticket laws and what not.

9/10 times the cop won't even care that much and will glance at your car if at all and sign it off.

As long as your ticket doesn't have anything written on it for modified emissions, they don't have any reason to suspect under hood mods.
