Help Exhaust Ticket!!!! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Shift_Dr1ft · 03-19-2008, 12:59 AM

Hey, I have a friend who has a fix it exhaust ticket, he wants to use my car and swap the plates to bring it in into the court (not state ref) to get it signed off. I know it's unsafe and he insist on telling me nothing will happen. I want to help him and all, as being a good friend, but is it really safe? I have asked other people around they it not worth it cause they will find out. I am just confuse how my friend insist that nothing will happen...

SoguRacing · 03-19-2008, 01:01 AM

haha as long as the license plate matches the VIN tag you're ok...but it won't. dont do it!!! if caught you'll be cited as well and who knows what will happen

*downshift_sideways* · 03-19-2008, 01:01 AM

No, Your friends is a Moron.

Sounds like he likes to Bro rape you.

Shift_Dr1ft · 03-19-2008, 01:06 AM

yeah I was going to let him at first, but I was like no way it's not that easy. Well I did offer to let him borrow my CAT, which is his main problem, but i guess he doesn't want to go though the hassle. -_-"

Shift_Dr1ft · 03-19-2008, 01:07 AM

I can use this thread to convince him now tho..since he doesn't believe me :]

soreballz · 03-19-2008, 01:12 AM

Don't do it. lol

ALEXTHESUS*PECT · 03-19-2008, 01:16 AM

you should get a better smarter friend then the one you have already!

joshchewuhh · 03-19-2008, 01:17 AM

its a crime to switch VIN numbers on cars!
dont do it

i just got my exhaust ticket taken care of just switch it to the stock muffler and go to your local popo station and they will sign it off for $10 and you don't have to go to court

Shift_Dr1ft · 03-19-2008, 01:28 AM

Yeah, thanks, I just had to ask cause he seem pissed off when I said forget about the idea, just wanted to have some proof since he wouldn't believe what I say.

*handinpants* · 03-19-2008, 01:33 AM

you live not too far from west LA, have your friend meet me at my storage, and have him bring $100 and i'll sell him my stock exhaust.

seriously
or you can tell him to kick rocks, he sounds like someone who you wanna keep around....

wtf your friend sucks.

it doesn't take more than an hour to swap out an exhaust system.

should be even shorter if you just need to swap out a test pipe for a cat...

hit him on the head and tell him to do it right.

Jpooks_S13 · 03-19-2008, 01:57 AM

I auctually just went to the courthouse today to pay off an exhaust ticket..didn't get it fixed just pled no contest and paid $190.I Didnt want to risk them finding more illegal stuff than they needed to...just tell your friend to man up and pay it off or go back to stock.

Kouki-Fiend · 03-19-2008, 04:02 AM

I would definately just install the stock exhaust. I would rather pay a small fee then the regular one and its really just too easy. That $150 or so fee can go towards more parts....why waste it on the popo.

markyboi · 03-19-2008, 10:58 AM

tell your friend

"is it that hard to switch exhausts?"

adrians_s13 · 03-19-2008, 11:05 AM

fix it ticket for an exhaust? Why don't he just swap back to a stock exhaust?

just food for thought..

whiteytighties · 03-19-2008, 11:17 AM

Lazy and dumb ass friend imo

You are 100% correct. This is highly illegal. Both of you can go to jail and pay heavy fines, and both of your cars can be confiscated.

Your friend is a complete idiot. Ask him what happens when you go to jail and your car is impounded? What do you think he will do for you?

what if i switch the dashboards but keep the VIN's in the original cars.

is that still illegal?

morbid · 03-19-2008, 11:34 AM

Just tell him to swap out his fucking exhaust.

98s14inaz · 03-19-2008, 11:42 AM

hell ya thats illegal..
I think the max penalty is like 5 years for that..
dont be a idiot..
that guy is willing to sell you a stock exhaust for 100.. do that, or tell your friend to lick your balls.. Is he going to pay for your storage on your car when you go to jail? hell no he wont. Thats the stupidest idea i have ever heard. thats like being on americas most wanted list and asking a cop to light your smoke..

Make sure the original dash VIN tags stay in the original cars. Mismatching dashboard VIN tag and chassis VIN tag = illegal.

speed_racerx · 03-19-2008, 12:01 PM

just to make things clear:

==>I AM NOT SHIFT_DR1FT'S FRIEND!<==

S13Leprechaun · 03-19-2008, 12:02 PM
