Nice GS. I've been through 2 state ref ticket already, I'm glad I'm not in CA anymore. When I move back there, I will either sell my car or try to make it as ordinary as possible.

Thanks, it was Onyx black but I was unhappy w/ the perception of depth so I had the entire car repainted to Bentley Buloga Black as the paint looks like you can reach into it. I like the glossy depth look vs the wet mirror look.


The 240 was the maroon color and was painted Auburn red, very similar colors but I think the color came out nicely. Not too in your face but definitely not boring.

oh and about the crack shot.....

i guess with all of these modded car tickets ill have to put aside money for tickets and not just car parts.

DRFT

that sucks man, but whats worse is that pic of your cousin.

rollhard

LMAO

Man, its sad that its come to this. Cops are pulling people over left and right just to inspect the cars for illegal mods and engines. Last week when I was going home on PCH, they pulled every car over that had rims, exhaust, etc. They were inspecting stuff, even my friend's elise got pulled over. Im surprised they didnt pull me over when I was driving the XB. Ill have to spray my FMI black now just to be safe.

Do what I did, get a custom exhaust made with 2 axle-backs, 1 stockish , 1 straight pipe. The stockish one is pretty quiet, well under 95db. I can now legally refuse to pop my hood as my exhaust is NOT illegal. I have cops come flying down the freeway behind me, almost skid to a halt next to me, stare at me for like 5 minutes running my plates and everything, inspecting my car, and then drive off.

yeah the officer actually said something along the lines of they are looking for these type of modified vehicles as they usually have illegal modifications on the vehicle.

I wish they'd spend more time busting people that actually drive like idiots & race on the streets. w/ the pot holes and dips on our streets that tax money is supposed to fix..... i wouldn't drive hard on city streets and mess up my cars. I'll save that for when I take her to the track.

koukidough

that sucks, I aint driving around HB anymore.

I dont know why some people are baging on you...lol...nice cars. But you look kinda young, how do you afford them?

Anyway, mabe I should spray my FMIC now too, and tint my windows. Other then my wheels everything else would apear to be stock. And the wheels are not godie at all anywyas.

Even my exuast is a 3 downpipe, midpipe, but the cat back portion is RSR and looks like a stock pipe. Also quiter then the HKS unit I had.

Anto

niiice q45 retrofit on the GS

I'm not in any of the pics in there. The guy in there is my younger cousin. I am 25 and have a decent paying fun job. I'll be damned if I let a ref ticket take away my personal hobby.

I dont consider people really bagging on me b/c at the end of the day its my car and I'll do what i want with it, how I want it, and in the order that suits my need. I only plan on keeping the car for a year or so, as its only a neat project for my cousin and I to keep us busy while I'm waiting for my real toy to arrive. Plus its just nice that we both have 240's to swap around parts.

The car is only in its beginning stages. Wheels, i've got covered and so I do not need to justify why I'm rolling around w/ weak offsets while the car is still in the garage being worked on. I'm still in the process of working on the drivetrain and suspension. Next engine, then interior, and then get cracking on the aesthetics. ETA?.... probably in about 2-3 months. I've only had the 240 for less then 1 month so I suppose you can consider me a at this whole game.

But thank you to everyone for your kind words, I look forward to meeting some of you at meets and such. I travel quite a bit so hopefully I will get to meet some east coast members also.

drift-it

the only solution is to keep it real rusty, haha then the cops will be like damn i feel sorry for you, have a nice day

mjjstang

why the fuck do you havea pic of 2 guys in the tub, thats gay, and i really like ur car and its sweet as hell but complaining about a ticket is pointless and im fed up with people complaining about cops and their state and laws. If you don't like the laws of your state, MOVE TO FUCKING SEALAND.

I wasn't complaining at all actually... I got a Referee b/c I like boost... I refuse to compromise my own hobby and so I will bypass the system all together. I made that conscious decision and I'll live w/ its consequences... you gotta pay to play!

This thread was made to just inform people that California cops ARE infact actively seeking modified tuner cars.

And yes, the bathtub picture was meant to be uber gay but thanks for pointing that out.

SilentSamurai8

Its not really two guys, but two KIDS. His litte cousins I belive. And I dont think he was complaining as much as informing and asking what people thought he should do know as far as engine swap or whatever.

and sealand? or seaworld, Because I use to say that alot. I think I got it from White man cant jump. "GO BACK TO SEAWORLD"

mjjstang

ok but i still think ur car is sweet even if ur cousins r gay






No i did not mean sea world

tiresmokes13

just dont go to state ref and pay the damm ticket off...i think its 400 bucks..easier than taking your motor out and dealing with crap like that...you look rich anyways so 400 bucks should be pocket money...lol

goodluck..

maybe you should think about getting better wheels too..those pizza cutters are prob the reason the cop pulled you over haha jk..i like the paint keep up the work..

TheSquidd

Yeah I'd like to hear from someone who has actually done this. I keep hearing about it but have no clue how that is possible.

Did you take that pic? Sealand huh.

Nice.

theronin

i dont know why you are so surprised that you have to go to the ref, u knew the risks involved in an ILLEGAL engine swap. sorry, but thats the price you pay for being jdm cool.

I can agree he as we all know the rist when getting a JDM motor and he is paying the price. But I dont think he got it to be JDM COOL. Not sure why you put it like that.

Not like he is selling a CRX on craigslist with a JDM b16...it is a performance thing.

But this is not really my business and he can speak for himself. Alot of people on hear have swaps though.

Have a nice day.

UPTOWN

I swapped it b/c my goal is to run 350-420 rwhp w/ good weight distribution and it was either this or the RB but I figured i'd sacrifice a bit of weight by going w/ the RB so I went SR instead. In all honesty I think it'd be cheaper to meet my goals w/ the RB25 as far as power is concerned. I never asked for sympathy or advice.... this thread is purely for some chuckles and the awareness that police are specifically gunning for us.

as stated before, I knew full well of the consequences and I am infact ready to handle those consequences. I'll be damned if I let a Referee ticket take keep me from one of my few hobbies.. btw Ref ticket is already taken care of.

JDM Cool? lol.... thats kind of funny. Think what you want.

tiresmokes13

you pay it off? hehe good choice lol how much was it?
