Never said a word about the engine.

Not all cops are dicks. Their not just going to try and harass you. He didn't pull you over either he probably just thought you guys needed help and he didn't pull you over. If you have the stock SMIC with all the OEM piping that would also be another reason why he wouldn't suspect anything.

Just say it's a CA model 240sx. They don't come with CE lights I believe. My 240 didn't have one and I had issues getting it smogged until I found proof of it and took it to the shop.

i got pulled over for being stupid... i was in a 2003 V6 mustang doing donuts and what not and a cop pulls me over and ask what i had under the hood... i was scared shitless because ut was my first time getting pulled over... i told him it was completely stock and he had ask me to pop my hood... i complied a and he start joking with me a start telling me that it wasn't even impressive and i should have been in a V8 and all kinds of crap... he then told me to calm down and leave w/o even giving me a warning or ticket

Yes, but not because it reads in kilometers - because it means you pulled your original cluster, and your mileage isn't being reported accurately anymore. There's a spot on your title that reflects that, once you get cited for it.
