Your not....91-93 mr2 is easier, why did you just jump to 94-95 those are the hardest years to find.
And back to the quote on "Im screwed" hardly, how amny cops know what an EGR is. my engine is powdercoated anyway, but i have all my smog and sound level certifaction in my car so id be legally glad to have a CHP try and bust my balls. All cuz im 20 doesnt mean im dumb. Cops want easy prey simple as that. 13 months, 350+rwhp later ive been pulled over dozens of times (headlights angled at a 23 degree or lower angle? I dont even know wtf he was talking about). And even came close to a tow and in handcuffs (verbally assulting an officer?") but not a single ticket. I dont race on streets and i dont speed everywhere, just be polite and stern afterall they work for YOU. But its all how you hold yourself, nothing to fear. Test only stations wont mind, but visual inspection can screw you, hell ive had one of my close buddies FMIC rx7 sent to a state ref for "illegal intake modifcations" which was a joke. My fear is external wastegate noise haha, that seems to the be the new fuse for local PD. But if your fear is that stern, 91-95 mr2 3sgte make sure the egr is working right. and your cats arnt clogged. My biggest fear in cali is this... http://www.thenewspaper.com/news/05/598.asp or the already stationed mobile smog pits stationed outside of big car meets and/or car shows. Like the incidenct at the HIN 2 years ago. This post has been edited by Glitch001: Jul 6, 2006 - 2:34 AM |

I dunno, it's a possibilty. -------------------- 94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |
