I went to Golden 1 to pay for a credit card bill and on my way out I notice a cop in the turning lane making a left. So I thought to my self should I wait for a little bit or should I just go. So I thought to my self "screw it I am going to make a left his not going to get out and chase me down".

I get into the turning lane and have my turn signal on. The light turns green and I go, but I shift less than 3,000 rpm to keep it quiet as possible. Well I look in my rear view mirror and here he comes. I am heading down Elk Grove Blvd. (West bound) and there was a car behind me and behind him was the cop on a bike. Well I am shifting at low rpm's and taking my time.

Well he decides (cop) to over take the car behind me and turn on the red and blue as soon as he gets behind me. So make sure it was safe to pull over and pull over on the side of the road.

He comes up to me and says "Do you know why I pulled you over?" and reply "Nope". He said he pulled me over for my exhaust anf then ask me what is that electronic thing. I tell it's a turbo timer and he tells me it's illegal you can not have any electronics that control the engine management. I explain to him how it works and then he says I'll let the State Ref decide if it's legal or not and have State Ref to see if that exhaust is legal or not. At this time all I can heaer is money flying out of my wallet.

Then he ask me about my exhaust and I tell him it's just a cat back. The next queestion is what have you done under the hood and I tell him nothing. So he asks me to open the hood and I do. Then he says do you have CARB sticker for that intake and I tell him that's stock and that's my intercooler pipe. He says ohhh okay and then proceeds to look around. Then he says go ahead and close the hood and when it's safe have seat in the car.

He comes back and says "Since it's your birthday I'' just give you a fix it ticket for the exhaust and you don't have to take it to the state ref.

I don't know if it's just me, but Elk Grove cops are just cracking down on any little thing there is. Man this is quite upsetting.

cops everywhere are cracking down on everything, but at the same time cops everywhere arent cracking down on anything. Its not the area its the individual. Everywhere has cops that target certain things, some speeding, some stop sign violations, some exhaust, some loud stereo's ect. It just so happens that you found the one who is out for people with modded cars.

It seems like El Grove is pulling people over for modified and it doesn't matter if it's legal or not. My co workers son got Â*pulled over and he just bought a used Integra. To make a long story short the cop wrote down a lot of violations and when he went to the state ref the ref said everything is legal and meet California laws. Then he went to court for the ticket and the judge said that'll two hundered and he told the judge that everything is legal and the state rf smog the car and was with in specification. He now has to go to another date for his hearing.

The judge said that his car is not with specification of smog and he showed him the paper work that the ref smog the car and it passed. So the judge said so its that mean your saying you are not guilty and he said yes. Now he has to go back another date to show that everything on the car is legal and meets within specification.

My cousins said something about cops not being able to send us to get smogged? Maybe it's just in Tracy. But reason being is that they have to do it on an awd dyno for us and they can't make us go hella out our way to get to one.

Again, this is what I was told.

steevo8
06-26-2007, 01:11 PM
awd doesnt have to pass a dyno smog every other year like rwd or fwd, we only have to pass a sniffer test, that doesnt have anything to do with sending you to a smog ref though.

Yes this is true for not many shops have a awd dyno. AWD vehicle only have to do a idle speed smog. Vehicles that are fwd, rwd and 4wd vehicles have to smog on the dyno. When I say 4wd I mean for trucks or cars that are able to disengage (mechanicaly) the fwd so that it only runs on rwd.

I'll tell you str8. He pulled you over cause your in an evo on elk grove blvd where a little kid was killed by some dumbass russian in a salvage bmw racing. Thats why. And I took my car to the ref, its free. I went to the one off northgate. The turbo timer was fine. i have a hks on mine. its only illegal if the car is wrongly modified at the time. He had nothing on you, dont kid urself. He was just an ass. I fucking hate police like that. they pull us over for noise pollution yet they do nothing about fucking loud ass harleys. WTF! Its 95db for the state maximum.

The reason older domestica can get away w/ runnin loud exhausts is because they can say their car never had a cat so it could be straight pipe.

Yet, I d/k about the bikes. I always said I'd be a cop and crack down on them but didn't wanna deal w/ the repercussions of making one biker upset. They roll deep! I'd be afraid for my life!

Maybe us Evo owners should start rolling REALLY deep then. Whenever someone has to get groceries, we'll make it a meet and roll 20 Evos to Safeway. Then they'll be so scared, they'll stop harassing us. :lol:

Someone forgot to tell the Sheriff that pulled me over. He said I was going 60 in a 45. He called backup and I was by myself. He also took a Polariod picture of me and my bike. He said in case I decide to run next time, they can identify me... WTH? Didn't I just pull over?

a chp pulled me over on my bike, for speeding and I had a fix it ticket that I needed signed off for a light for the license plate. He walked up, basically let me have it then i asked if I could get it signed off......He looked and me and I guess I stumped him and he said what? Lemme see. And he signed it, got back on his bike and we went our seperate ways, he forgot about the ticket. WIN!

COMBAT street racing!?!?! BWAHAHAHAAA!! No one street races in Elk Grove, except the occasionaly stop light battles. More people die in their bathroom from accidents than people do from street racing.

They should have gotten a grant to combat DUI, what about that?

Do what I do. When law enforcement officers look at me with a little too much interest I drive the speed limit, use my blinkers, you know all those things that you are supposed to do. Then I look at them and smile and wave :)

I like the smile and wave thing myself. I know a few cops in the area and I have been pulled over for the smile and wave and they said they thought I was flagging them down and "sending help signals" lol. Knowing people helps some times though as i have yet to get a ticket for the smile and wave... CHP on the other hand lol. they are always the last to cut you slack, got searched for the smile and wave cause my diet coke looked like a silver bullet.

F*** ELK GROVE POLICE. Same shit happened to me, except I was not lucky enough to get off cause of my birthday. Bottom line is that its bullshit, these guys are power pushing assholes, its rediculous. Especially when they dont even know what they are looking at but always assume its "illegal"

I had to go to ref because of elk grove motorcycle cop, state ref fails me the first time due to a "turbo timer" WOW BUNCH OF BULLSHIT. I think some people should start taking action with all this crap.

I have apexi turbo timer and he failed me cause he said it splices into ecu to read out afr, still a bunch of crap. Has nothing to do with emissions. OH well second time to state ref in 6 months, both time for no reason, no speeding or wreckless driving or anything, simply because my Evo looks "modded" is why I was pulled over.

The Evo is now garaged and gets driven maybe once a month :(

What I do for pesky cops is if I think for any reason a cop is tailing me I'll pull into a private parking lot like a gas station restaurant etc, park my car and wait for him to pass. Nothing they can do but leave and maybe go wait for you down the road. I just watch em take off and then I go the opposite direction. (A cop once followed me into a gas station and aprked his car, it then became a waiting game Eventually they'll get called to go somewhere else. That or park your car and have a friend come pick you up.

If I see a EG cop (one guy in particular that patrols calvine road area is a fag btw) I'll speed off, no way in hell they'll catch me. I had an idiot cop chase me around the neighborhoods by florin HS. I know that area like the back of my hand. The cop eventually gave up.

The reason for exhaust tickets is noise. It's the loudness that matters. A loud car/bike is a loud car/bike and should be considered so no matter what make or platform. Noise is noise.

On another note: Cops DO racially profile and they DO watch the minorities. The only thing "white" they watch for are white cars. I know a guy who used to work for law enforcement with CHP buddies.

So I guess the cops win in this case...
