Thats crazy but I guess do what you gotta do.

Not trying to thread jack but do the cops ever harass out of staters? if so is it minor or like impound your car?

No, not swerving at all, plus there was stop and go traffic, so not speeding at all. They just saw a slammed 240 with a big ol' shiny can in the back and pulled me over. They said my blowoff valve was blowing out exhaust fumes, and wanted to tow my car away at first. Just got to be stealth and go with some sleeper exhaust from now on. Still looking around for it. Let me know if anyone is selling one in the bay.

You do NOT get points on your license.

That wouldn't even make sense.

How would you having a car that doesn't pass smog give you a point?

You get points for moving traffic violations.

The only way to be safe in Cali is

- low profile Circuit sports style exhaust ( I proved it is good to over 400 WHP)
- Tasteful rims and tires (not too over the top)
- Tasteful and functional lowering (not super low slammed look)
- Tasteful OEM looking lights and blinkers etc.
- No overt tinting or shiney stuff

- Make it look as close to stock as possible on the outside of the car

I drove a 450 whp SR around for a couple years like this...then I decided to rebuild the car out of carbon fiber and lexan...then I took it off the road...lol
